Providing Runnells IA Nannies

“I am Adriana, a Colombian residing in Iowa, actively seeking a Nanny position in a fantastic family setting. With expertise ranging from newborns to young adults and a fondness for animals, I am passionate about being a Nanny due to the positive experience I had as an Au-Pair. Having been involved in childcare for more than 3 years, I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoy what I do! Additionally, I am willing to assist with housekeeping tasks such as laundry, vacuuming, and light cleaning. In describing myself, I would attribute trustworthy, honest, hardworking, outgoing, and loving as five adjectives that accurately reflect my character. Within the daily routine for the family I care for, activities I would like to incorporate include walking, arranging play dates, engaging in reading, pursuing arts and crafts, dancing, and swimming. I envision the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me to be loving, caring, and respectful!”

“I am a dedicated and diligent individual who is highly dependable. I currently live with my charming niece whom I deeply cherish. The reason I have chosen to pursue a career as a Nanny is simply because I thoroughly enjoy working with children. With over four years of childcare experience, I can confidently affirm that I truly love what I do. I consider children to be precious gifts. As a Nanny, my objective is to excel in my role and become a valuable member of the family I work for. I am more than willing to assist with housekeeping tasks, such as helping with homework, providing transportation to and from activities, accompanying the child on doctor visits, and preparing meals. If I were to describe myself using five adjectives, they would be charismatic, intelligent, honest, hardworking, and well-rounded. In terms of daily activities, I believe incorporating visits to the library and engaging in after-school activities would be beneficial for the family I care for. If I were to imagine the perfect family seeking a Nanny like myself, I would hope that they are affectionate, fun-loving, and deeply devoted to providing the best for their children.”

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

“I was raised in London and relocated to the United States in 1987. Currently, I am married and have a daughter. For the past 18 years, I have been working as a nanny, as it is a profession where I can have a positive impact on children's lives, one at a time. Being around kids brings me genuine joy, and I possess qualities such as being calm, organized, and conscientious, which enable me to assess situations and take the lead when necessary. If I were to explain in one sentence why I have chosen to be a nanny rather than pursuing another profession, it would be because I appreciate the opportunity to provide individualized attention to the child and their family, believing that children are precious beings who deserve love and nurturing. My ultimate goal as a nanny is to always give my best, cultivate a stable and caring environment for the child in my care, while also helping to lighten the load for the parents. I am open to taking care of household tasks such as laundry, maintaining tidy bedrooms and play areas, meal preparation, and dishwashing. In terms of activities, I would love to incorporate elements like story time, outings, reading books, arranging playdates, and visits to the playground into the daily routine for the family I work with. Ideally, the perfect family seeking a nanny like me would be honest and capable of expressing any concerns they may have. Thank you for your time!”

“I am a highly energetic, responsible, and compassionate individual who has a deep love for children. I come from a close-knit family where kids are the focal point, being the youngest of three siblings. Currently, I am working as a nanny for my nine and a half-month-old nephew, a role I have undertaken since his birth in late November 2008. While I did have a taste of the corporate world and the life I thought I wanted, I have realized that my true passion lies in being around children. My ultimate goal is to provide exceptional care and develop a strong bond with a wonderful child, nurturing and teaching them to the best of my abilities. If I had to explain in one sentence why I have chosen to pursue a career in nanny profession instead of any other, it would be because I have an immense desire to be around children and have the opportunity to educate them. Growing up, I was fortunate to have loving siblings and a strong support system, and I wish to be that person for someone else. Over the past 10 years, I have gained extensive experience in childcare and can confidently say that I am deeply passionate about what I do. Children, in my opinion, are the most incredible beings on this planet. As a nanny, my goal is to enhance a child's life, help them appreciate their unique qualities, and make them aware of their significance while facilitating their learning and growth. I am also prepared to contribute to household tasks such as laundry, meal preparation, and tutoring. My daily plan for the family I care for would include incorporating learning/tutoring activities, engaging in outdoor and physical activities, and prioritizing anything that is important to the parents. Ideally, the perfect family seeking a nanny like me would be loving and caring, allowing me to become an integral part of their family and supporting me in any way I can support them - I am here not only as a role model for their children but also as a friend to both the parents and the kids, eager to assist in any capacity possible.”
