Hi Parents! My name is Nikki and I wanted to come on here and list a few reasons as to why I would love to care for your child! I am currently enrolled in nursing school here in Des Moines. I am on my way to become a PEDIATRIC RN and I want nothing more than to help little kids. I truly have a soft spot or kids because they are tiny humans that are so pure and innocent. My lifelong goal is to help them, advocate for them, and make them feel loved and as comfortable as they can. I have many years of experience, ranging from babysitting at home for my sister or working in a daycare. I would be so appreciative if you guys gave me a chance to make an impact on your child’s life. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!
