I believe kids needs to have opportunities to do fun things in the summer and I will plan day trips and outdoor activities to engage them both physically and mentally. I am also a certified teacher and am willing to negotiate tutoring services during childcare hours. I am an expert in teaching reading and own an all inclusive reading program for all ages that has been proven successful. I am also skilled in teaching elementary math and writing as well as science. Additionally, I have provided both Spanish and guitar lesson for beginners. I have worked in various childcare facilities as well as individual families doing before and after school care in Colorado working with infants through middle school-aged children. I planned daily activities and learning units that were engaging to students even in an after school care program. I also spent 2 years caring for infants at a Montessori Read more center. I am very comfortable with children of all ages. I believe that play is is how children learn and I love providing various play experiences for all ages. In additional to caring for children, I have been teaching elementary school for 10 years. I have taught grades 2-6, and most recently I have become a reading specialist, teaching children who struggle with dyslexia. Currently, I am a grad student at Denver Seminary finishing up my master's degree in Counseling. I am recently married and look forward to starting a family of my own, but in the mean time, the next best thing is helping other busy parents provide nurturing care for their children. I am available for Thursdays and Fridays during the day as well as for date nights and overnights. Send me a message if you want a fun, energetic, and nurturing sitter!

Originally set up an overnight job for Brittany at the end of the month. However, my wife needed to have an outpatient procedure suddenly and Brittany came through for us and watched our kids for 6 hours last Friday. She was on-time and super about everything. Looking forward to seeing her again for future jobs. Perfect babysitter for the Longmont area.

Brittany is super sitter. She came with a bag of games and even got our child to bed on time (really amazing!). She is dedicated to kids and it shows. Thank you!!!

Brittany was wonderful to work with. She watched out 6 month old son while we attended some wedding events and I felt completely comfortable with her. She was clearly comfortable with babies and had a lot of knowledge on how to care for them. She following our instructions exactly and was completely on time. We would absolutely use her again next time we are in town.

I engaged Brittany for an overnight stay for my sixth grade boy while I had to make a 36-hour business trip to the east coast, and she was superb. Brought over games, books, and other things that thrilled our 11-year old and actually got him away from his computer screen more successfully than I do. I definitely plan on using Brittany again in the future.
