Hi! My name is Denise Perez, and I’m currently a senior at Colorado State University majoring in Health and Exercise Science, and will be graduating with my bachelor’s degree very soon. With over five years of babysitting experience, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages, and I’ve consistently babysat throughout both my high school and college years in fun, nurturing, and supportive environments. Last summer, I worked at Primrose Schools where I taught and cared for children daily, encouraging their growth, creativity, and learning through structured activities and play. During the school year, I worked in the infant room at Once Upon a Child Daycare, gaining valuable hands-on experience with newborns and toddlers. This past fall, I worked full-time with two families during my final semester, further strengthening my experience managing multiple households and routines. I’m CPR/AED/First Aid certified, and I always prioritize safety. I love creating engaging activities that promote development and curiosity, whether it’s indoor crafts, outdoor adventures, or visits to local attractions. I also take pride in keeping the environment tidy and preparing healthy meals that kids enjoy. In addition to childcare, I bring a strong background in basketball coaching and training. I’ve played the sport all my life, including a year of college basketball, and I’m passionate about helping young athletes grow their skills. If you're interested, I also offer personalized basketball training sessions. I’m also fluent in Spanish, it’s my first language and I have experience teaching it to children in fun and engaging ways. With patience, energy, and a true love for working with children, I strive to provide the care and support every family deserves. I’d love the opportunity to connect and see how I can help your family thrive!

Hi I’m Veronique! Looking forward to learning more about you and your family. :-) I have lots of diverse sitting experience with children. I was prepared for sitting early because of my experience at home. I grew up in a single parent home and helped care for my brother, who’s three years younger, and my sister who is 7 years younger than me. I started sitting for families throughout middle and high school, sometimes tutoring those children as well during my sitting sessions. From college and beyond, I have worked for many families and with children ranging from 3 months to 16 years old. I am completely comfortable with all ages of children and groups of up to 5 children at once. In addition to my experience and passion, flexibility makes me a great sitter. Currently, I run a business which allows me flexibility in my schedule. I am always willing to accommodate parents’ needs and schedules, I arrive on time, and I am willing to work long shifts or stay late as needed. I am a great cook and take pride in keeping homes as clean as possible. For every job, I always come prepared to be active, get on the floor, do indoor and outdoor activities, prepare needs, and tidy up. I love connecting with children and learning their personalities. I learn and adapt quickly to individual children, and really I just genuinely love caring for children. I find it truly energizing and enjoyable to sit for children. They are such great sources of joy and inspiration.

I have a current professional elementary teaching license from the state of Colorado. I have my MA in Elementary Education and a Principal's License. I am no longer teaching in schools, however, I entertain tutoring. I have raised my 3 girls, all of whom now have grandchildren which I enjoy very much. I have CPR training and am also a Medical Technologist (ASCP) and worked in medicine for many years. I also have a legal background. I have had several background checks, and if you would like to know more about me go to WyzAnt.com and type in my name: Rebecca Markel, there will be a photo as well as my tutoring biography.
