Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Activities I enjoy doing with children include reading books together, doing arts and crafts, playing educational games, and spending time outdoors for walks, playground visits, or nature exploration. I also enjoy helping with homework and finding creative ways to make learning fun. Whether it’s building with blocks, baking simple treats, or organizing imaginative play, I love engaging with children in ways that encourage their curiosity, creativity, and confidence
The most important part about being a nanny...
nanny is building a trusting and supportive relationship with both the children and their families. It’s about creating a safe, loving environment where children feel secure, valued, and encouraged to grow. As a nanny, I understand the responsibility of being a consistent, positive presence in a child’s life—someone who not only meets their daily needs but also supports their emotional and developmental well-being. Communication, reliability, and genuine care are key to making a lasting, positive relationship

Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Des Moines, IA: Kennedy R.
I have 10 months of hands-on experience working in a childcare center, where I cared for children ranging from just 8 weeks old to 5 years old. During that time, I’ve learned how to support each child’s unique needs and personality, and I truly enjoy being part of their growth and daily routines.

I’m very comfortable with diaper changes, feeding, and keeping a clean, organized environment, and I always make sure each child is happy and comfortable.
I’m patient, dependable, and able to stay calm through challenges, but what matters most to me is creating a warm, nurturing space where children feel secure, supported, and excited to learn and play
