More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I’ve worked with children my whole life — coaching teams, caring for kids in daycares, and currently teaching in schools — and I’m now available for after‑school nannying. I’ve worked with every age and can handle pickups, supervise sports and activities, prepare after‑school snacks and dinners, and provide homework help and tutoring. I hold CPR and First Aid certification (including infant/child CPR), a teaching credential, experience with special education and ESL, tutoring credentials, a valid driver’s license with a clean record, and background/fingerprint clearance. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to keeping routines calm and positive while supporting each child’s learning and growth. Available weekday afternoons with flexible hours; happy to provide references and certifications upon request.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
With parent approval to drive, I can take children to the park, jump park, pool, lunch or dinner outings, and shopping trips. I also organize age‑appropriate activities at home and on the go, including sports practice supervision, creative play, reading time, educational games, and homework support or tutoring as needed.
My experience with special needs children...
I am a teacher of children with special needs and focus on clear, consistent routines using lots of visuals (schedules, picture cues, timers, and visual task lists) to support understanding and independence. I build patience into every interaction, break tasks into small steps, offer positive reinforcement, and allow processing time. I tailor strategies to each child’s needs—providing sensory breaks, movement activities, or quiet corners when required—and collaborate closely with parents and school staff to keep supports consistent. My goal is to reduce anxiety, boost confidence, and help each child make steady progress in daily routines and learning.

Babysitter Available in Dubuque, IA: Kristin D.
I grew up in suburban Chicago in a very loving and nurturing home. My parents worked very hard both at home and in their chosen fields. My experience with childcare started at the young age of twelve. This is where I discovered my love for children and continued caring for them as a means to earn money through middle and high-school. From there I went to college and even worked part time as a preschool teacher at one point, while taking classes. I studied abroad and eventually lived in Costa Rica for four years. This is where I met and married the father of my son who is now 25. He served in the Maines and lives in Dallas where he is finishing school in cyber security. I also have a 18 year old daughter who is beginning her life as a young adult. I would describe myself as a empathetic nurterer with a lot of patience. Being a empty nester, I'm missing and craving my role as a caregiver. I believe I shine in caring for others and would love to continue to do so for a family in need.
