Bubbly Aspiring Teacher

(1)
Hi! My name is Liz (she/her), a sophomore Education major at Drake University. My family dubbed me as the "baby whisperer." Originally I am from Topeka, KS, but am in Des Moines for school. I have been babysitting for 6 years, worked as a theatre camp counselor for 3 years and am both First Aid and CPR certified. After I graduate in May of 2023, I plan on becoming an Elementary School Teacher focusing on English as a Second Language. I would love to be involved with your kiddos' lives, working on homework with them, running errands, tutoring, etetra. I am very silly and out going, with an affinity for helping children succeed. Also, with not being completely familiar with Des Moines yet, I am sure I can fill this summer with quite a few adventures!

Hi! I am a fun and friendly person! I love helping people out and doing nice things for them. I'm up for any task or challenge. The only thing I really don't do is yard work, but I will help out with any gardening you might need done. I am great with kids and I have experience with taking care of kids between the ages of newborn-8 years old. I have a huge family and I am an aunt to six nieces and nephews, the oldest being 5 years old. I also have experience in taking care of pets, mostly dogs. I have had several dogs growing up and I took care of all of them, even training some of them myself. I am the type of person who loves to be outdoors, doing hands-on projects, running any errands, playing games, and just having fun in life.

Doing Stuff Is Annoying. Let Me Do Stuff For You!

Hi! I'm a student at the University of Iowa going into my senior year. I've got a great work ethic, an eagerness for whatever task I'm set to, and a clean, spacious RAV4 that's perfect for running all kinds of errands. Money's a little tight right now, as I'm unemployed and have just moved into a new apartment, so there's nothing I'd like more than to do whatever you need me to do for you! Don't have/unable to drive a car? Let me pick you up and drive you wherever you need me to go! Nervous to go out due to COVID-19? Let me run your errands for you! I'll pick up your groceries or your medication or your dry cleaning or whatever else you need in an efficient yet careful manner! I also have a reasonably healthy young body and a decent brain if that's what you need. I can help you plant flowers or pick up sticks in your yard! I can help you set up your WiFi or your cable! I can help you get heavy things off of high shelves - but only if you give me a stepping stool, because I am short.
