A little bit about me

I have babysat frequently but have yet to be a full time babysitter- I'd love too! I'm great with kids of all ages, for infants I may need a few tips and tricks to care for your child the best way possible.

I am a sophomore attending Iowa State and I'm on path to graduate with my bachelors of sociology in May of 2024! My end career goal would be a Pediatric Physicians Assistant.

Some classes I took in High school relevant to child care: Introduction to patient care, health sciences, parenting, public health, health, psychology, sociology. I was a lifeguard for all four years in high school! I got recertified in Basic Life Support on June 7th, 2021.

I will add I am a bartender on the weekends- I work at Aj's Ultra lounge. They are open Wed-Sat in the summer starting around 7pm, during the school year it's Thurs-Sat same time. I can cater to your schedule! I can take certain nights off if needed, I don't work every night but will need a week advance to take those certain days off.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I also tutored children during the pandemic. I made sure they were up and at them completing their school work on time! I worked with the younger ones on reading and writing skills. I try to make learning fun- as you are only as smart as you want to be!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Crafts, games, swimming, zoos, ice cream dates, etc!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is leaving an impact on children of all ages, caring for their mind, bodies, and spiritual growth.

I desire to leave a love for learning and gaining knowledge. I want the kids to know its awesome to have fun- but also know when its time to do some homework to better themselves.

I also want to impact them in the ways of nourishing their bodies, loving the earth, and caring for their family!

My experience with special needs children...

I cared and tutored a child who had some brain delays, he was in an accident as a child.
My older brother is autistic! I grew up with him of course so I carry a soft spot in my heart for those with special needs. In fact I hope I can leave a lasting impact on people with special needs!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Playing monopoly with the two boys I babysat (4-9). I honestly was expecting to win... the 8 year old beat me- lol!
