I recently graduated from college with a degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology, and I currently work at a middle school supporting students with special needs. Working with children has always been something I’m passionate about because I love helping them grow, learn, and feel confident in themselves. Being a sitter allows me to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can be themselves while also building positive routines and skills. Through my work at a school, I’ve gained valuable experience working with children with a wide range of needs, personalities, and learning styles. This has helped me become patient, adaptable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with homework, encouraging positive behavior, and creating engaging activities that keep kids active and learning. Safety is very important to me, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. My background in psychology also helps me understand child development and communicate effectively with kids in a supportive and encouraging way. In my free time, I love staying active, whether that’s going to the gym or hiking the Incline. I enjoy bringing that same energy to childcare by encouraging outdoor play, creativity, and fun activities. Families can count on me to be responsible, caring, and genuinely invested in the well-being of their children.

Hi there, I’m Ilana! I recently graduated with a degree in Biology and am now pursuing my Master’s in Nutrition. I’m passionate about healthy living and love spending time outdoors—whether I’m hiking, biking, or exploring nature. I’ve been caring for and teaching children since I was 12, and my background includes years of tutoring in addition to babysitting. I’m infant and child CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve gained extensive experience with children from newborns to preteens. I believe in creating a fun, nurturing environment that encourages curiosity and learning, whether we’re reading, playing games, or discovering the outdoors together. I’m also highly creative and can’t wait to come up with engaging, educational activities that suit each child’s personality and interests. With my knowledge of nutrition, I’m happy to help prepare healthy snacks and meals, too. I’m confident that my caring nature, reliability, and enthusiasm make me a great fit as your babysitter, nanny, or mother’s helper. I look forward to meeting your family!

I’m a college student who loves playing with kids. I think helping kids learn about the world is a really great experience in which I often end up learning more from the children than they do from me sometimes. I’m very patient, and love working with the family to make sure the kids get the same expectations from me as they do parents. I like to hike with my dog shadow. I have many years of experience. My comfort zone is 3 months- 7 years old. I worked as a lifeguard for a while and got my CPR and first aid training while doing that. I also update my skills every year. I’m great at helping with homework, changing diapers, making or warming up bottles, learning play, and have my own car with the capability of running errands as well. I love having connections with people and am comfortable helping around the house as needed. Feel free to give me a call or contact me!

Hi, I’m Aurelia, an 18-year-old high school student currently studying to become a dental hygienist. I also take classes at Pikes Peak State College while working toward my dental degree. I’ve been working since I was 15, which has taught me the value of responsibility and how hard work leads to growth. I have experience working with children ages 6–12 through coaching youth volleyball, where I helped teach and guide a group of 10 kids. This experience helped me develop patience and positive learning techniques to support children as they grow and build confidence. As an older sister, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I’m responsible, patient, and enjoy creating a safe, supportive environment for kids. I’m also happy to help around the house, including laundry, light cleaning, and preparing meals from breakfast to dessert. I’m fully up to date on my COVID-19 vaccinations and always aim to be dependable and communicative. I will do my best to accommodate your family’s needs—just let me know how I can help!
