About Allison

I started babysitting when I was 13, and I am now 23. I attended Upper Iowa University, where I majored in secondary education with endorsements in Reading and ESL; I graduated in 2020. I started teaching in 2020, but due to some disagreements with the school district, I stepped down from my position in March of 2022. I currently work at Kirkwood Community College, and my summer hours there are Monday-Thursday, 8 am- 5 p.m. My hours are Monday-Friday during the school year, 8 am- 5 p.m. I am an excellent option for before-school care, weekday date nights, or weekend care. I have experience caring for children ages three months to 12 years old. I love to play outside and be active with the children I care for, but I also love arts and crafts. I am confident I can build a trusting relationship with you and your child(ren).
