Hi! I am a student at the University of Iowa, studying Neuroscience on the Pre-med track. I currently work part time at the Stead Family Children’s Hospital in the PICU as a Nursing Assistant. I have been babysitting various aged kids since I was 12 years old. My mom did in home daycare growing up which formed my love for kids and I have become very comfortable with all kids. I am comfortable with any age and number of kids. I also love to help kids with homework or other learning if need be. I am open to helping with any household needs! I am able to transport kids as well and I also love dogs and have experience working at a doggie daycare, so I am familiar with all types of dogs!
