Hello! I'm a 39-year-old, fully vaccinated developmental and sleep specialist nanny living in Thornton. I have degrees in neuroscience and psychology, during which time I completed a coveted pediatric sleep research fellowship. I am currently working on a remote master's degree in sleep medicine from Oxford University. I’ve nannied and provided regular sitting for most of the last 20 years in both Denver and Nashville. I am currently looking to expand my rotation of families for date night sitting while I finish school and I am potentially open to part time nanny work (25-30 hours) for the right family. I’m a big believer in developmental-stage focused activies, child-led play, and engaging kids in ways that instill them with a love for learning. I have experience from birth through grade school and have had kids I adore at every age. My love of early childhood development and passion for raising strong, compassionate, and resilient kids is what led me to pursue my degrees. I have provided the two required references but if you need or want more please don't hesitate to ask for as many as you need. Talk to you soon! Dana

Dana has been nothing short of amazing with our son! I am extremely picky when it comes to who we trust to watch our little one and I am just so thankful to have found Dana. She is very experienced with young children and loves being around them—plus our son is always so excited when we tell him that she is coming over. She always knows what developmentally appropriate games to play and how to gently encourage him to finish all of his food. Would highly recommend Dana to any parents looking for someone trustworthy and nurturing!

My first language is Siswati and I am very fluent in English. I started learning English in primary school, and it was also the language of instruction in the high school I attended.

Hello! Little about me, I’m originally from Tx, I grew up in Colorado and moved back to Colorado after high school. (2019) with my boyfriend. I then become a dental Assistant for pediatrics, and purse other specialists in the dental field. I’ve always looked after my little cousins, since they were born and care for them full time as they were growing up, and are now pre-teens! I also have a younger sister! I really enjoyed taking care of others so I pursued it and became a full time nanny. I’ve been with my nanny family for three years and I’ve loved every second of it! unfortunately they’re getting older so I’m looking into joining a new family. With my role as a nanny I enjoy being the most helpful as possible, with the kids and the family! I basically loved doing all the house essentials, like laundry, dishes, basic meals, the families errands (groceries shopping/ pick ups, drop offs, Dr appointments, house organizing) I enjoy to stay busy and productive. For the kids I enjoy doing learning development games, trying new parks together, doing crafts, reading, playing video games/building legos playing board games . I enjoy spending quality time with them and being very attentive doing what they love to do! I would describe myself as enthusiastic, optimistic, caring, nurturing, very compassionate, responsible and reliable. I am now a full time nanny, and babysitting part time/occasional and I absolutely love it! I love taking care of others. Staying active, creating a fun, playful, safe environment is my ultimate goal for families. I’m comfortable with working with all ages, from newborns -early teens, also comfortable around pets! I enjoy time outdoors, like hiking, swimming, painting and picnics. I also love to read, and anything crafty! I like to do activities and stay active! I also love movie nights and watching movies, but minimizing tv and screen time as much possible, unless you’re okay with it. I am CPR certified, and I’m also bilingual with fluent Spanish and English. I look forward to speaking with you! Thank you,

I am a nurturing, fun, and creative babysitter with over 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience including everything from infants to teenagers. I have a bachelors in counseling and have taken child and adolescent psychology classes. I love reading (running away to Australia with Alexander in his railroad train pajamas or giving a mouse a cookie to see what happens...) and music (everything from Chopin to the Beatles), building forts and having adventures outdoors. I grew up in "Calvin and Hobbes" style with my Beagle, Suzie, so I love family pets! I am firm but kind and very patient with all temperaments. I am looking for occasional babysitting positions weekends only. I love working with kids and would love to find an awesome family that wants a responsible and caring addition to their family. References available upon request.

Alison G.
Ally has babysat for us countless times over the past two years and we have come to depend on her as a caregiver for our family. We have three children, ages 9, 6 and 2. Ally effortlessly handled all 3 kids with their various schedules and needs. I found Ally to be extremely dependable, punctual and trustworthy. She genuinely loves children and was able to relate to all of my children and play with them one on one. Any family would be lucky to have Ally in their lives as a caregiver for their children.

I love being around/apart of kids lives! I’ve been babysitting off and on since I was 14. I like to make any family i’m babysitting for to feel like i’m apart of their home and routine. I am a full time flight attendant. I normally have around 12 days off a month. I know my schedule a month in advance, on the 17th of every month. Whether you need me for a date night, or school pickup and drop offs, i’m your girl! I am very good with kids and love being around people. I am also good around animals. Back home in Florida I have two dogs and a cat. In my free time I love to do things with friends and family and I enjoy going on vacations anywhere with clear water and a beach.

Hi! I’ve been nannying/babysitting for about 11 years! I’m CPR and BLS trained on all ages. I’m 28 (almost 29!) with a fiance but no kiddos. Just a pup! I’d love to sit for your kiddos and keep them entertained safe and happy! I have experience with the state in DHS specifically working with young juveniles and their development. I practice more of a Montessori type of learning and play, and love to be outside when the weather permits. I’m the oldest of 5 kids so I have a lot of experience with multiple ages and different personalities. I just love getting to hang out and teach them new things! I do know Sign language and some Spanish. I don’t mind a commute and thought I’d love to have a full time nanny job, I’m open to babysitting several families here and there. Additionally, I do housekeeping while I’m there and ensure you come home more relaxed than we you left! :)

Kaelin in phenomenal! She watched my two girls and my girls loved her. She was engaging with them, fun, and took great care of them. She was incredibly easy to communicate with, she was prompt, and we even came home to her cleaning our house! Truly, we will be working with her again!

I have years experience, but have worked over the last 7 years steadily now with children, and I am fantastic with any age. I do transportation, think of really fun things to do, and enjoy just hanging out and doing crafts, coloring, and playing games and with toys. Turning your living room into a fort to play in is my specialty. I will always make sure children have good hygiene and eat a balanced meal.

We hired Kelsie to watch out four children, ages 5, 3, 2 ,and 3 months. This was our first experience having someone other than a relative watch our children. We're also pretty protective of how we allow into our home and into our children's lives. Right when she started, it became apparent that she was a wonderful fit for our family. We have never felt uneasy or uncertain of her ability to care for our kids. Being that our kids are all young and close in age, we know that they're busy and can be difficult to manage. Kelsie has exceeded any expectation we had of her. Not only does she successfully manage playtime, meal times, and nap times, but she does it extremely well. Our kids always rave about her when we get home, and each morning they ask if they get to see her that day. Kelsie engages with the kids, plays at their level and interacts with them, playing the things they love most. She has successfully cared for our youngest (who is not a great sleeper), without skipping a beat. She always has a smile on her face and she genuinely enjoys our kids. We encourage very limited screen time with our kids, and she has followed this request. She also respects what we've asked regarding discipline. There have been no issues or trouble. We're happy to report that she really is more than we ever imagined we could find in a babysitter. One more thing to add - when Kelsie started watching our kids, we made it clear that we did not expect her to do any cleaning, other than cleaning up dishes after lunch. She has made a point to always help with laundry, even our laundry, and folded and put the kids' clothes away. She's also washed our kids' sheets, cleaned out the fridge - she really does not like to sit still, and this shows in the top notch care our kids receive and in the condition our home is in when we come home from work.

Hi I’m Sofia! I have worked with kids for the last 6 years! I love to be around children and I am open to play any games or even just go to the park. I am also willing to drive children to events, school or any place they may need to be. I love being a sitter because children keep a smile on my face and I love to see them having fun. I have experience working with children of all abilities. I strive to keep children safe, provide them a fun environment to be around and to provide them with any and all care they may need.
