Hi I am Maggie. I started baby sitting in middle school. My parents would go on double dates with friends. I would watch my brother, and their daughter and son. Their son had autism but the 2 of us had a special bond. I also started baby sitting for a family in high school that had 3 kids. Twins who were between 3-4 and their brother who was 5-6. I baby sat and nannied for them until I started college. We went to adventureland and princess tea parties. They are in 6th and 8th grade now. I also baby sit for a family with 3 boys when I started with them there were only 2. The boys were very shy when I met them and had a hard time being left with a baby sitter. They ask there mom all the time now for me to come play including the Read more youngest who was only a few months old when I started watching him. I currently work at Cadence Academy Preschool in Urbandale. I am a multi age teacher currently. I work with infants all the way up to 5 year olds currently. I love all of my classrooms but one of favorites is my infant classroom. In the mornings if I'm not hanging out with the toddlers you can find me giving teachers planning time or restroom breaks. In the afternoons you can find me hanging out with the babies. I love working with kids. If one of the primary infant teachers is gone my infant teachers will request for me to be in that classroom. I have been working for Cadence for 3 almost 4 years now. I have child and infant CPR/First Aid as well as adult CPR/First Aid. I also have Play training given to us by the Iowa AEYC. I have essentials child care training and universal precautions training.On the weekends usually I am either working at my part time job wig and pen pizza pub or hanging out with my dog a 1 year old terrier mix named Tank. I also volunteer at church with the kids programs. I was a Girl Scout until I graduated high school. I also love baking and trying out new recipes. I can't wait to meet you guys!
