Hi! My name is Brigeth, and I live in Des Moines. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, CPR certified, and have completed CNA classes. Caring for others has always been something I truly enjoy, and I love creating a safe, fun, and loving environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable.Families describe me as patient, responsible, trustworthy, and energetic. I enjoy spending time outdoors, helping with homework, organizing activities, and making sure children feel supported and cared for. My CNA training has strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and caregiving skills, allowing me to stay calm and attentive in any situation.In addition to childcare, I can assist with light housekeeping, meal preparation, pet care, and household tasks. As someone who is organized and dependable, I always strive to make parents feel confident that their children are in good hands.I would love the opportunity to become a positive and caring presence in your family’s life and provide the best care possible for your little ones.

While I haven't worked as a traditional babysitter, I have over three years of experience working with children as a dance instructor for Tippi Toes. I taught classes for children ranging from 18 months to 9 years old, leading classes within local preschools as well as community programs. My role involved creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment while managing groups of children with different personalities and needs. This experience helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to keep children entertained while ensuring their safety. I'm comfortable supervising young children, leading age-appropriate activities, and helping them feel comfortable, confident, and supported. I'm excited to provide families with dependable, attentive, and caring childcare.

I’m a newly married, active, and family‑oriented caregiver who recently moved to the Franklin area. I love sewing, baking, staying active, and being involved in my church community. I’ve always dreamed of having a big family of my own one day, and caring for children has always come naturally to me. I have experience nannying full‑time for a family with a 10‑month‑old, 3‑year‑old, and 5‑year‑old, as well as providing occasional care for another family with a 4‑ and 6‑year‑old. I also spent two years volunteering at a daycare in my hometown, served in children’s ministry with preschoolers, and gained meaningful experience working with autistic children ages 1–6. Across every role, I focus on creating a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where kids feel supported, engaged, and cared for and where parents feel confident and at ease.
