About Iona

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi, families! I am a caring, energetic, and responsible childcare provider with over 6 years of experience working with children in special education and private in-home care. As a mother, I understand how important it is to provide children with a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. I love creating fun and engaging activities that encourage learning, creativity, and imagination. From arts and crafts and outdoor play to educational games and homework support, I strive to make every day a positive and enriching experience. My experience in special education and behavior therapy has helped me understand and support each child's individual needs while creating positive and consistent routines. I am certified in CPR, Behavior Therapy, and PCMA, and I have a clean driving record and an up-to-date local background check. I am also happy to assist with homework, simple meal preparation, and keeping play areas organized. For me, caring for children is a true passion!

It’s not always easy leaving a baby and a toddler at home to go out for the evening, but having Iona babysit has made our date nights so much easier. We have an 8-month-old and a very energetic 4-year-old, and she handles both of them so well. We feel completely comfortable leaving them with her because we know they’re in good hands. She’s great with their bedtime routines, and our 4-year-old absolutely loves when Iona comes over. It’s such a relief to be able to go out and actually relax knowing the kids are happy and well taken care of.
