Providing Kalona IA Nannies

“Hi, my name is Adriana and I am originally from Colombia. Currently residing in Iowa, I am actively seeking a Nanny position with a wonderful family. With extensive experience spanning from infants to young adults, I also have a great love for animals. The reason I have chosen to pursue a career as a Nanny, as opposed to any other profession, stems from my rewarding experience as an Au-Pair. Over the past 3 years, I have been genuinely passionate about caring for children and can confidently say that I thoroughly enjoy what I do. In addition to childcare, I am also open to taking up household responsibilities such as laundry, vacuuming, and light cleaning. If I were to describe myself in five words, I would say that I am trustworthy, honest, hardworking, outgoing, and loving. When it comes to daily activities with the family, I would love to incorporate walking, play dates, reading, arts and crafts, dancing, and swimming. The ideal family I envision working with would be loving, caring, and respectful.”

“I am a highly dependable individual with a strong work ethic, and I live with and greatly cherish my niece. My decision to pursue a career as a nanny is rooted in my genuine enjoyment of working with children. I have gained over four years of experience in various childcare roles, and I can genuinely say that I love what I do. I view children as precious gifts. As a nanny, my primary objective is to provide the best possible care and support to the family I work for. I am willing to assist with household chores, help with homework, provide transportation to and from activities, accompany the child to medical appointments, and prepare meals. Describing myself, I would use the adjectives charismatic, intelligent, honest, hardworking, and well-rounded. In the daily routine of the family I will care for, I would like to incorporate visits to the library and engage in after-school activities. Ideally, the perfect family seeking a nanny like me would be a loving and fun-oriented family that deeply cares for their children's well-being and always strives for their optimal development.”

Annette's almost twenty years of nanny experience qualified her to be a part of ABC's Kalona Nanny Agency.

“I was raised in London but moved to America in 1987 and now reside here with my husband and daughter. For the past 18 years, I have been working as a nanny, a job that allows me to make a positive impact on children's lives one at a time. I genuinely enjoy being in the company of children and possess qualities such as calmness, organization, and conscientiousness, which enable me to take initiative when necessary. The reason I have chosen to pursue a career as a nanny, over any other profession, can be summarized in the following sentence: I appreciate the opportunity to provide individual attention and care to both the child and their family, as I believe children are precious gifts that deserve love and nurturing. My ultimate goal as a nanny is to always give my best, create a stable and affectionate environment for the child in my care, and to lighten the load for the parents. I am more than willing to help with household tasks like laundry, organizing bedrooms and play areas, meal preparation, and dishwashing. In terms of activities, I would be delighted to incorporate elements such as story time, outings, reading books, arranging playdates, and visiting the playground into the daily routine for the family I work with. If I were to describe the ideal family seeking a nanny like me, I would hope they value honesty and open communication regarding any concerns or expectations. Thank you for your time!”

“I am a highly energetic, responsible, and compassionate individual who has a deep love for children. Growing up in a close-knit family where kids are the center of attention, I have always enjoyed being around children. Currently, I am working as a Nanny for my nine and a half-month-old nephew, a role I have been fulfilling since he was born in late November 2008. Despite initially pursuing a career in the corporate world, I quickly realized that my true passion lies in being around children. My ultimate goal is to become an exceptional caregiver, forming a strong bond with a wonderful child whom I can teach and nurture to the best of my abilities. Choosing to pursue a career in nanny work, rather than any other profession, stems from my sincere desire to be around children and provide them with as much knowledge as possible. Having had amazing siblings and a strong support system during my own upbringing, I now wish to be that person for someone else. With over ten years of experience in various childcare roles, I can confidently state that I have a genuine passion for what I do. In my eyes, children are the most remarkable beings on earth. As a Nanny, my objective is to enrich a child's life, instill in them a sense of gratitude for their capabilities, and help them acquire as much knowledge as they can. Additionally, I am more than willing to assist with household chores such as laundry, meal preparation, and tutoring. The daily routines I would plan for the families I work with would encompass learning and tutoring sessions, as well as outdoor and physical activities – whatever is important to the parents is equally important to me! For the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me, I hope to find a loving and caring environment where I can truly become part of the family, providing assistance in any way possible. I am here to be a role model for the children and a reliable friend to the parents.”
