A little bit about me

My name is Lizzy, and I am a recent college graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Music and Psychology. I have worked in childcare and respite care for many years, caring for children ranging from ages 1 month to thirteen years. I thoroughly enjoy the experience of watching children grow each day, and it is a privilege to assist them as they learn to navigate new situations. I am an aspiring music therapist, so I am passionate about utilizing the power of music to benefit one's mental and emotional health. This is especially important during childhood development, wherein children are learning how to regulate their emotions as they take in the world around them. I am passionate about ensuring the safety and dignity of all human beings, especially the youngest ones among us. After all, we were all children once, and we all deserve to be treated with the utmost love and compassion!

Emma T. - Seeking Work in Des Moines

Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Des Moines, IA: Emma T.

Hi! My name is Emma, I’m 27 years old, and I’m a mom to two kids who have given me over 6 years of real-life childcare experience. Being a parent has taught me patience, gentleness, multitasking, and how important it is for children to feel safe, understood, and cared for.

I’m naturally nurturing and attentive, and I truly enjoy spending time with kids.. whether that’s helping with routines, playing, doing creative activities, or simply being a calm and supportive presence in their day. I understand how important trust is when it comes to childcare, and I treat every child with the same care and kindness I would want for my own.

I’m dependable and easy to communicate with, and I love creating an environment where children feel comfortable, happy, and emotionally supported.

Brook D. - Seeking Work in Des Moines

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Des Moines, IA: Brook D.

I love to paint and get creative with my inner child sometimes. But I’m general I’ve grown up not only for a love of art and music but watching my cousins and taking care of my uncles homes while doing so and such just seemed relaxing to me. I have been on a stretch to make sure this is what I want but kids make me feel excited the way painting does and to me I love a job that’s fun to me and that I enjoy. I enjoyed taking care of them growing up one more complicated then the other like meds and needing more help but it was never to much and we always made it fun. By that I mean I have experience with a baby needing help with meds, feeding tube, extra learning and attention. I took care of him for years u til he got to big for me to pick up but the time was amazing seeing his smile every morning and knowing I could make him smile. I just wanna be able to teach more children, make them happy and parents by helping out around the house maybe just help more the way I know best.
