Hi! My name is Skylar, and I am 19 years old. I am currently in nursing school and will graduate in May 2027. I have always had a passion for caring for others, especially children. I worked in a daycare for 2 years and have over 8 years of babysitting experience with children ranging from newborns to 12 years old.I love getting to watch kids grow, learn, and develop their personalities over time. Building strong relationships with the children and families I work with is very important to me. I have experience caring for many different children with a variety of personalities, needs, and routines, including overnight care and date nights. I strive to create a safe, fun, caring, and dependable environment for every child I care for.

Hi! I'm Madison (23), a recent graduate with a B. A. in English and Education in Ames.I've been working with children my entire life! It started as caring for my four sisters who are 10+ years younger than me, then becoming a paid babysitter at age 13, and now being a summer nanny the last 4 years. I do have a resume!I'd describe myself as creative, thoughtful, sincere, and organized. I often create a summer bucket list with the kids and use that to create a tentative activity calendar so we are all on the same page! I love learning-based fun - going to the library, park, and pool, and cooking, baking, and crafting with them! Ultimately, I love to do things that bring the kids joy!I would be honored to be your caregiver!

Hello! I have 7+ years of experience working with children and growing into a career in early childhood education and professional childcare. I graduated from Iowa Western in May 2024 with my Associate's Degree in Early Childhood Studies. I have experience caring for children of all ages, including working as a lead teacher in an infant classroom, and I am now working as a professional nanny.I truly love getting to know each child and watching them learn, grow, and discover the world around them. I believe children learn best through play, hands-on experiences, meaningful interactions, and having a caregiver who makes them feel safe, loved, and supported. I enjoy creating fun, age-appropriate activities and getting out of the house for adventures!Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, and traveling. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you and your children can trust and feel comfortable with!
