Hi, I'm Kelley and I love kids! I'm twenty one and I have almost ten years of experience in childcare. I am CPR, first aid and pca certified. I babysit for families, help in my church nursery, and I've done childcare for my bible study, worked at an after school childcare center, have done some pca work, and have held several nanny jobs. I have a passion for kids, and I'm happiest when I'm with them. I plan on working with kids as a career choice. Children are amazing, and I just love spending time with them. I enjoy playing games with them, reading to them, playing pretend, playing outside and doing outdoor activities and educational toys/games! I think they are so cute and fun!

Hi! I'm a certified surgical technologist looking for a second job that allows me to work closely with children—something I’ve always loved. After graduating high school, I worked as a nanny for several families and truly enjoyed building those connections. I also have plenty of hands-on experience caring for my own nieces and nephews. I'm energetic, reliable, and skilled in everything from diaper changes to preparing after-school meals. I'm CPR certified and have my own transportation. Have pets? No problem—I’m an animal lover, too! I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and caring environment for your children.

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.

Hi, I'm Kara — a highly experienced caregiver, nurse, nutritionist, mother of three, and lifelong nurturer with a passion for helping families thrive. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a degree in Dietetics (Food Science and Human Nutrition). I’ve worked as a school nurse, public health nurse, hospital nurse, and case manager. I’ve also worked as an independent nutritionist, helping many mothers and fathers discover practical, nourishing ways to feed their families with confidence. Before raising my own children, I was a dedicated nanny for many years. I bring a unique combination of warmth, structure, creativity, and energy into every home. I was raised on a farm in Iowa, started babysitting early, and still have a close relationship with the family I nannied for growing up. My life is rooted in service, faith, and joyful homemaking — I love preparing homemade, nutritious meals and also enjoy gourmet cooking. Managing a home, gardening, and creating a peaceful, well-run household are things I truly enjoy. I also run an apothecary business, handcrafting herbal products for natural health and wellness. I’m highly active and in very good shape — certified in Pilates and passionate about yoga, hiking, biking, and outdoor adventures. I love engaging kids in age-appropriate activities, whether that’s crafts and science experiments with younger ones or outdoor excursions, baking, art projects, or life-skills support with tweens and teens. I enjoy connecting with older children through meaningful conversation, encouragement, and helping them build independence and confidence. I understand that every child has a unique personality — from energetic explorers to quiet thinkers — and I’m flexible in meeting them where they are. While I’m not an expert in electronics or gaming, I’m happy to learn what they enjoy or provide gentle structure around healthy boundaries and screen time when needed. Whether we’re planning a nature outing, talking through a tough day, or just making a great meal together, I bring creativity, enthusiasm, and patience into everything I do. If you're looking for someone who can care deeply, move quickly, manage your household, and nurture your children’s minds and hearts — I’d love to support your family.

***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.
