Live-In Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Ankeny, IA: Chantelle W.

"From the time my daughter was 6 months old, I’ve used Chantelle to babysit her and I’ve had nothing but good experiences. They often go outside together to play and she’ll play educational games throughout the day with her as well. I also really appreciate how she sends me pictures so I can see my baby having fun. From my experience, Chantelle is very attentive and caring. She has a son of her own which I think really stands her apart from other sitters; she has that mom instinct when it comes to teaching, preventing accidents, and problem solving. But on the flip side, she’s still pretty young so shes able to chase my wild toddler around! She usually has her son with her when she’s watching my daughter and the two have actually became really good friends. My daughter doesn’t go to daycare, so I think being around another kid is teaching her some valuable lessons related to sharing & respect. Overall, I’m grateful to place my daughter in safe hands when I’m not able to care for her."

"We love Chantelle! We first called her when one of our sitters canceled last minute, and she jumped in with less than 24 hours notice. She connected with my three boys right away. Now they only want her to babysit, which says a lot since we’ve had quite a few sitters. They also love her son, and enjoy having a built in playmate when she watches them. Chantelle is kind, dependable, and great at communicating. We'll continue to use her when she’s available!"

"Chantelle is great with children I’ve watched her care for kids newborns to 4-years-olds. You can tell she has a love for children. It also gave me peace of mind that she was knowledgeable in age appropriate activities for each of our children."

"Chantelle was our weekend nanny, and she was absolutely wonderful with our three boys (ages 5, 4, and a 10 month old at the time). She often brought her own little boy, who was 1, and managed all four boys well. She genuinely cared for our boys, and it really showed they adored her, and they loved having her son around as a bonus playmate. I always felt comfortable leaving my kids in her care, and I’d trust her with them again anytime."
