A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Lexi! I obtained a bachelors degree in psychology in 2023, and am actively pursuing a PsyD in clinical psychology online. I have experience working as a behavioral interventionist at an elementary school, as well as after-school care as needed. I have a passion for helping kids understand their emotions and effectively express themselves in a safe way. I believe that perception is a powerful tool and starting to learn and practice it at a young age can be beneficial in many aspects. Along with that, I love being able to have fun and be silly; building life skills is so important AND SO IS allowing kids to be kids - I believe I have a great understanding of how to balance these! I have a 5 y/o nephew and a 2 y/o niece who are my whole world. It is crucial to me to ensure every child I encounter feels safe, loved, and cared about! I look forward to chatting and exploring the possibilities of helping your family!

Babysitter Available in Waukee, IA: Peyton B.

I’m 21 years old (turning 22 in February) and graduated from Rhema Bible Training College with an associate degree in Pastoral Ministry. I have over 7 years of experience working with children through nannying, daycare, and serving with kids and youth at my church. I genuinely love working with kids and creating a fun, safe, and encouraging environment where they feel loved and cared for.

Growing up with four younger siblings, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I’m dependable, patient, and responsible with a bubbly personality! I enjoy getting to know each child and their individual personality and needs in order to care for them in the ways they need. I value relationships and love feeling an extension of the family for the kids I care for!

Tiffany B. - Seeking Work in Waukee

Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Waukee, IA: Tiffany B.

I love kids and have been watching them since I can remember. I have many young kids that look up to me as their role model, which puts a smile on my face.

I was a nanny for a few years before getting hired at the daycare in my local town, which is where I currently still work.

I am 22 years old and just graduated from Graceland University in the spring, with a Bachelor's degree in business and accounting. Graceland is located in Lamoni, IA. Lamoni is my hometown and I am looking to move out of Iowa and to the beach in late August/ early September.
Ali B. - Seeking Work in Waukee

Full-Time Nanny Available in Waukee, IA: Ali B.

My name is Ali, and I absolutely adore little kids. I love to read to children and encourage them to read books on their reading level to me to engage them. Park trips or even just out to the swing set is also something that I enjoy doing with kids. I also believe in limited tv and video game time. I have babysat for 5 different people. I enjoyed each family and their children and pets. One day a neighbor who has an in-home daycare, called me and asked if I could watch her daycare kids for about 3 hours, and then watch her own 4 daughters while she and her husband went out for a date and to run errands. I gladly agreed because I love her daughters. That afternoon when the school aged kids got of the bus there was about 15 kids under the age of 10. I have done 3 overnight babysitting jobs in my 6 years of experience. I love doing arts and crafts, reading, playing board games, playing outside. I also have what I call bag of fun. It includes radom books, and games, or my list called "how can we help mom today?" I use this to help teach responsibility to them. Reward will vary. As I conclude this, I want to say "thank you for taking the time to read this."
