Find experienced child care providers in Drake, CO

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! With over 14 years of professional childcare experience, I am a highly skilled child minder. My passion for working with kids originates from being the fifth child in a family of ten. Even as a kiddo myself, I eagerly volunteered to watch over my younger siblings, starting with babysitting under the supervision of an older sibling at the age of 9. This early experience blossomed into a deep love for childcare, leading me to work as a mother's helper in my neighborhood starting when I was 11. I cherished my first childcare job, which spanned over eight years and endured various relocations. To this day, I maintain close relationships with the families I've worked with. Throughout my career, I've served in various roles including teacher, babysitter, full-time nanny, driver, and group care provider. Notably, I provided comprehensive care for a family with pilot parents, accommodating their demanding schedules with diligence and care. Currently, I work at an automotive repair facility in Fort Collins, following my wife's and grandfather's footsteps in the auto industry. Outside of work, I enjoy engaging in artistic activities, reading books, camping, biking, hiking, and embarking on adventures with my wife. I am committed to providing a nurturing environment where children can thrive, offering trustworthy and enjoyable care in your absence. Let's connect and explore how I can support your family!

I am a single mom to a 13-year-old boy… I have a full-time job that I work during the week sometimes there’s a little bit of flexibility depending upon the situation. But I’m looking for a second source of income to be able to make ends meet for my son and I. I have babysat and nanny since I was a teenager and I love kids. I am very dependable and would love to help you out with your childcare needs.

I'm a child care provider and former teacher with nine years of experience in education, including four years with infants and toddlers specifically. I like to make babysitting an exciting experience for children while maintaining routines they are used to, so I plan activities based on their interests and developmental level. My philosophy is that kids (and all people!) do well if they can, so I first use sensory regulation strategies to calm children, then talk together about what they are feeling and how to solve any problems they are having. I have a soft spot particularly for kids with extra behavioral needs.

I love being a sitter because I’ve spent time taking care of my younger nieces, nephews and cousins and enjoyed every moment of watching them grow up and being one of the people that motivates and encourages them. I have experience with infants and toddlers and have done everything from changing diapers, to feeding and cooking, hygiene routines, educational activities, dressing, play time, and more. I enjoy fun activities and feel as though I’m good at creating games or crafty projects for kids to enjoy. I am very patient and mindful when it comes to discipline and want to always be a safe place for the child I am taking care of.
