Meet Kursten

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have been providing child care for my neighbors, family friends, and local families for as long as I can remember. I have experience with all ages and time requirements. I am very open to new experiences, places, and activities. I am easy going and welcome a challenge. I love kids and am also a volunteer for Big Brother Big Sister in Denver. I have used Sittercity successfully with multiple families since February 2009. During college I regularly babysat for three families around Ithaca and Syracuse, NY. Since moving to Colorado I've continued actively babysitting for local families. I like to meet with the family first, before committing to any babysitting dates. Forming a bond with the children and allowing them to get to know me is just as important as it is for me to get to know them. I have had wonderful experiences with the families I have met Read more through sittercity and have formed some great relationships.

Kursten sat for our 2 toddlers several times this summer and she was just fantastic. Always punctual, easy going, very flexible and - even though I'm sure our kids gave her a good workout - kept coming back for more! I can't recommend her more highly.
