Hi! My name is Heidi, and I'm looking for nanny jobs on Tues, Wed, Fri or Saturdays! :) About me...I'm a flexible, dependable and trustworthy caregiver who loves to get into anything your kids love! What experiences have I had? Well, I have an Elementary Ed degree as well as, I was a "stay at home mom" that had the neighborhood kids 24/7, and loved it! Now that my two children are grown, I need to do something I love again. It's childcare! So, if you're looking for someone to engage your children, play it cool and relax, or anything in between... Look no further... I'm a flexible caregiver with great experience working with children! :) One thing that makes me unique is: With my degree, I have spent some time working in our school district, then started my nanny work in 2012. So, feel free to contact me, and I will reply! :) To whom it may concern, I am writing to recommend Heidi B. for a nanny position. Heidi has been with our family for years. She has cared for our son from the time he was 3 months old until after he turned 3 years old. She has been a wonderful, trustworthy and reliable caregiver. Heidi was always punctual and willing to work with our frequently shifting hours, whether it was asking her to arrive early or stay late. In addition to caregiving, she completed whatever tasks that were requested, particularly light housework and laundry. Most importantly, Heidi cared a great deal for our son and he loved her. He was always eager to see her, talk to her, and play with her, from his earliest moments of being able to express these emotions. We have four older children as well and Heidi was always willing to help care for them if they had to stay home from school with a cold or illness. She has also helped out with pick-ups from school and taking care of our other kids during after-school hours. I would hire Heidi all over again. Most Sincerely, Katie D. Back round check on request

Parker S.
- 5 years paid experience
- 15 miles
Hi, I am Parker and I have been working with children for over 5 years through a couple different areas including my church and a non profit preschool. In these groups I have been involved in both a lesson and friend role. Through these experiences I have gathered a good understanding of how to best communicate and successfully connect with kids in my care. I prefer a gentle and calm approach to all situations as this matches my personality. I strongly believe that patience mixed with showing a real care for a child is the best way to create the important bond that is needed when parents are away.

I did volunteer work in the church. For 3 years I took care of children of all ages at church. Babies from 6 months to 1 year, and children from 2 to 10 years. With the babies, I helped take care of them by giving them bottles, changing their diapers and putting them to sleep. When they were awake, they played games to stimulate the baby's skills, such as painting, playing Legos or watching cartoons on TV. With the older children I did activities that also stimulate their development, such as drawing and painting, playful games, I gave them snacks and was always there to give them all the support they needed, and it was really cool, because at the same time I taught them, I also learned from them. to be patient and empathetic and to understand their needs.

***I live in Denver, CO, I’m from MN and I cannot change my location*** I was a full time nanny for over two years and cared for 4 different children during that time. My first family with an infant moved to the suburbs and then I was with my second family with their infant. That turned into a nanny share with their next door neighbors who also had an infant. Then one family moved and the other one had another baby. My contract ended in December and I’ve seen the family multiple times since we cultivated such a good relationship. I was CPR and First Aid certified in January 2022. I have babysat since I was 12 years old from watching kids for date nights, being a mother's helper, and even overnight stays. I have watched large groups of kids for volunteer experiences with other people and I also taught kids how to swim as small as toddlers. I have experience with kids of all ages especially toddlers and elementary age children. I care about safety first and foremost and try to give each child I interact with the space to be themselves.

I have experience volunteering at my former college's day care where I have experience assisting during playtime, meals, naptime, and have experience interacting with children from ages 2-4. I also have reliable transportation as well. I've also had various free lance babysitting jobs so I have plenty of experience with children and I am also CPR and first aid certified. I also have two daughters of my own so I hold hands on newborn and infant care experience. Feel free to contact me for your childcare needs.
