Maria T., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 30 years of paid experience

In addition to creating a phenomenal annual growth increase in MAPS, CSAP, DRA, & TCAP testing as a classroom teacher, my past employment has given me in-depth experiences in providing services to children and adults with, and without, developmental disabilities as well as managing and organizing a variety of activities. I have developed highly effective teaching techniques and instructional methods, which have allowed me to educate all styles of learners and foster an enthusiastic and engaging learning environment that effectively teaches subject appreciation, promotes creativity and encourages growing independence. One of my greatest strengths as an educator is meeting each student’s unique needs by developing an in-depth personal understanding of each one of them. I achieve this by recognizing and assessing the students as individuals, and tailoring lesson plans to accommodate multiple intelligences. Furthermore, I offer one-on-one and after school guidance to ensure that all students grasp the learning materials and enhance their personal skills. I have worked hard to develop not only an outstanding resume but also an exceptional reputation. I will carry this over into my work and strive for dedicated success. I want to use my proficiencies to gain experience and help those for whom I work with and for. I consider myself to have sincere people skills, outstanding organizational skills, and of course, dedication to providing a dynamic education to children with hopes of making a significant impact in their life.

Madison K., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 1 year of paid experience

Hey there, my name is Madison and it's a pleasure to be considered to watch over your babies. I have experience as a nanny, as well as several years being a kids camp counselor, babysitting for many friends/family, and volunteering for the nursery at my church. I've been a full time photographer the last 5 years and worked with kids throughout my career as well so I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I'm wanting to take a small step back from photography and pour my compassion and empathy into caretaking. I've always had a heart to make children feel loved and seen. I have a love for adventure that I love to share with kids and always want to instill confidence in their ability to learn and try new things. I am first aid + CPR certified through my physical therapy degree. I would love to learn more about your family's needs and look forward to hearing from you!

Dana R., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello! I'm a 39-year-old, fully vaccinated developmental and sleep specialist nanny living in Thornton. I have degrees in neuroscience and psychology, during which time I completed a coveted pediatric sleep research fellowship. I am currently working on a remote master's degree in sleep medicine from Oxford University. I’ve nannied and provided regular sitting for most of the last 20 years in both Denver and Nashville. I am currently looking to expand my rotation of families for date night sitting while I finish school and I am potentially open to part time nanny work (25-30 hours) for the right family. I’m a big believer in developmental-stage focused activies, child-led play, and engaging kids in ways that instill them with a love for learning. I have experience from birth through grade school and have had kids I adore at every age. My love of early childhood development and passion for raising strong, compassionate, and resilient kids is what led me to pursue my degrees.   I have provided the two required references but if you need or want more please don't hesitate to ask for as many as you need.   Talk to you soon! Dana

Koryn W., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Koryn! I’m 23 and currently studying Psychology. I have minors in Communications and Sociology. I plan to attend Graduate School for clinical or developmental psychology. I’m fully vaccinated and certified in adult, child, and infant First Aid, AED, and CPR. Working with kids has been a part of my life for years, and it’s something that truly fills me up. I believe childhood should be full of curiosity, creativity, and connection, so I love planning activities that spark imagination while also holding space for kids to just be themselves. I follow a child-led approach, which for me means tuning in to each little one’s energy, needs, and rhythms, and letting them guide our time together. As a full-time student, I’m available for date nights and occasional sitting. My intention is always to create a safe, nurturing, and uplifting environment where kids feel free to grow, explore, and thrive. I’d love the chance to meet your family and support your little one’s journey.

Grace P., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 25 years of paid experience

Hi there families, I am a seasoned Early Childhood Teacher and am TRUSTLINE verified (this is a deeper background check than what they run here) happy to give you my ID# upon request. I have worked with young children (infant to 12 years of age) in a variety of settings for over 25 years: preschool teacher, nanny, camp-counselor, dramatic-arts coach, classroom volunteer and mother. I am a self-starter with high energy. My extensive experience and maturity bring both wisdom and calm while still embodying youth and vitality. I have been told that I float seamlessly among all age groups and have been referred to as a “Yoga-Mary Poppins”. I have a BA with emphasis in psychology, an AA in Early Childhood Education, CPR/First-Aid certifications and a vast understanding of children with different learning styles. I have a working knowledge of different ECE modalities: Reggio, Waldorf, Montessori, Play-based and RIE. I believe children learn best and THRIVE when all their needs (social/emotional, physical, cognitive, and creative) are being addressed and met. I am dedicated to the well-being of children and have strong competency in creating nurturing environments where children feel safe, seen, respected and excited. I know how to set boundaries (while still validating child's feelings), anticipate meltdowns and redirect with ease. My intention when working with babies and children is to focus on engaging them in active educational play that supports their developmental milestones. I enjoy “play with a purpose” whether it’s park days, interactive games, nature outings, library story-times, crafts or science projects; your baby/child will be learning and nurtured when they are with me!

Angela P., Nanny in Lafayette, CO 80026 with 5 years of paid experience

I have always had jobs centered around child care ever since I was about 14. I started out babysitting for family friends, then worked at a pumpkin patch, coached soccer and volleyball, tutored, worked at a church nursery, taught preschool, and 1st and 6th grade. I am pediatric first aid certified and just finished my masters program for elementary education, and I am now pursuing my phd in special education. I have become very familiar caring for children with high behavioral needs. I also have a three year old daughter who likes to tag along and meet new kids!
