Veronique P., Child Care in Watkins, CO 80137 with 20 years of paid experience

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 am an experienced Early Childhood Educator with over 33 years in the field of Early Childhood Education. I have multiple degrees, including a BA from Mizzou in Early Childhood Education, a Master's in Elementary Education and a certification in Early Childhood Special Education. I recently retired from my role in St. Louis as a Parent Educator, where I assisted families with parenting topics, such as feeding, sleep, potty training and developmental milestones as well as created fun, hands-on activities. I have also been a part time nanny for several families and have loved working with all of their sweet kiddos. Now that I have moved to Denver, I would love to use my knowledge to help other families with their busy lives. I am fun, organized and child-centered. Let me know how I can assist you!

Nica R., Child Care in Watkins, CO 80137 with 12 years of paid experience

I have many years of experience as both a nanny and a babysitter for children ranging in age from a few weeks old to 15 years old. I have experience from having my own boys as well - one with special needs. I have watched kids full time and just a few days a week. I like getting to know each child's personality to know the best way to care for them as well as incorporating the parent's infant schedules/guidelines. I enjoy taking kids on adventures/keeping them active as well as helping with homework. I am open to helping out around the house. Thank you for your consideration.

I have been a babysitter/nanny for the past eight years and have experience with children aged newborn-12. I have worked consistently with multiple families and enjoy all ages. I love children and connect with them with ease. I enjoy playing with them and allowing them to learn and grow to become who they are. I believe that each child is unique and therefore require a unique experience no matter the developmental age. I currently work at Children’s Hospital as a RN.

Lainey J., Child Care in Watkins, CO 80137 with 11 years of paid experience

Hi there, I'm Lain! I am a licensed social worker taking a sabbatical from clinical mental health work to return to childcare, following three years at Children’s Hospital Colorado. With professional experience in classroom education, homeschooling, tutoring, nannying, babysitting, mentoring, and leadership roles, I bring over 10 years of experience in childcare, youth development, and family mental health. I’ve enjoyed working with children of all ages in both pediatric and childcare settings, and I especially love working with disabled or neurodivergent children. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and a Bachelor of Journalism from the University of Texas at Austin in 2018, followed by a Master of Social Work from Metropolitan State University of Denver in 2023. As the daughter of a public school teacher and administrator, I have a deep love for education that has profoundly shaped my path. Informed by my own experiences navigating the education and healthcare systems as a neurodivergent person, I’m deeply committed to supporting neurodivergent and disabled children and their families. My goal in returning to direct childcare is to build strong connections with families and help enrich the lives of the children I care for. While I plan to return to mental health work in the future, I currently feel a heartfelt desire to reconnect with my professional roots in childcare. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for a variety of childcare, mentoring, or educational roles. I welcome the opportunity to work with children of all ages and love to incorporate fun and learning into our time together. I’m excited to discuss your family’s needs, my experience, and our shared care philosophies! ***Resume, driving record, background check, and additional references available upon request.***

Aly was fantastic with our almost 2yr old. She has a background in childcare and child development along with being the oldest of 6 kids. She was very flexible with hours, and even more so with her rates. She was great with communication so we knew what our little was up to all day. Aly was energetic and lively, which are traits that my kiddo enjoys. She was even able to get her down for a nap which traditionally has not been the case. Hopefully when we’re back, Aly is available!
