Lu was an excellent sitter for our 3 year old daughter. She came with a great attitude and lots of activities, arts and crafts, music, and was also super patient in getting acquainted and comfortable during their first meeting. Her extensive professional history in childcare really shows through her care and attentiveness.

Hello!! My name is Ana just like the Disney princess! I'm a junior at CU studying to be an ER pediatric nurse. My decision to pursue nursing was influenced by my interactions as a nanny. With 9 years of babysitting experience taking care of infants to 15 years old, I approach every family I work with as if they were my own. I strive to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing that their little ones are in the hands of someone trustworthy. I thrive on the contagious energy that children bring, and I enjoy engaging with them through interactive play. Safety and security are my top priorities, but I also make sure to create a fun and entertaining environment. I constantly come up with new games and activities to keep the time spent together enjoyable. Responsibility is of utmost importance to me, and I always adhere to the rules set by parents to establish trust and transparency. In addition, I have experience in potty training and knowledge of sign language.

Hi, I’m Koryn! I’m 24 and currently studying psychology with a focus on child development, along with sociology. I’m looking for a summer nanny position, as well as occasional/date night opportunities. I’m fully vaccinated and certified in adult, child, and infant First Aid, AED, and CPR. Working with kids has been a huge part of my life for years, and it’s something I genuinely love. My approach is very child-led and down-to-earth. I meet kids where they’re at, follow their interests, and build connection first. I believe kids learn best through play, curiosity, and feeling truly seen, so I focus on developmentally appropriate activities that support their growth while still keeping things fun, relaxed, and engaging. I’m a seasoned babysitter/nanny with a wide range of experience, and I naturally incorporate skill-building into everyday moments, whether that’s emotional regulation, communication, independence, or creativity. I’m all about creating a safe, calm, and supportive environment where kids can be themselves and thrive. I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!

Hi! My name is Jami, I am from Wisconsin and in Boulder for law school. I was a full-time nanny last year in Chicago for two amazing kids under the age of 5. Prior, I was also a nanny for two summers full-time for three kids ages 6-12. I became CPR/First-Aid certified in Summer of 2023 and will gladly renew my certification when it expires in 2025. My favorite part about nannying and babysitting is getting to know each kids personality and letting their curiosity and interest drive our play and activities! I also have experience supporting the kids routines including morning and bed time activities. Further, I am able to contribute through light housework and laundry as well as rides to and from school/activities.

We love Jamilah! She is super friendly, trustworthy, and reliable, an excellent communicator, and most importantly was very attentive to our little babe. She is great at following directions, and always called or texted if she had any questions. Would highly recommend.

Greetings! My name is Kameron and I recently moved to Boulder from Madison Wisconsin. I moved to Colorado with my long-term, live-in girlfriend so that she can continue to study Nurse Midwifery at Anschutz Medical Campus. In Madison I was working with MSCR (Madison School & Community Recreation) as an Outdoor Educator. My role was to facilitate experiential learning opportunities by taking groups outside. Through hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, and camping my goal was to subtly educate while in a state of play. When out in nature I find the opportunities to learn are hiding right next to opportunities to have fun. Before starting my years with MSCR I spent many years as a musician. I started playing drums when I was 2 years old and I've never really stopped. While in college in Minnesota I would give drum lessons during the week and then go play shows with my band on the weekend. We actually won the U of M battle of the bands back in 2019. Even before I was a drummer, I became an older brother. My childcare career began somewhere around the time I learned to tie my shoes, I think. Being the oldest of 4 kids and the second eldest of two dozen (give or take) cousins, caring for and leading others has always been something I was naturally good at. Being the in-home babysitter developed into being a neighborhood "manny" and that gave way to me perusing a future in childcare. As the oldest with both parents working full time I would often cook our family supper and to this day I love to cook. I am a fun loving, responsible, and caring person. I love being outside riding my bike or playing games like discgolf. I am a massive appreciator of art and architecture so a trip to the museum sounds just as good as a swim in the river to me! I enjoy reading and watching an old movie now and again. I've never been into video games so I don't know much about Fortnite or Mineshaft but if you want to talk Tolkien, I'm your man. I'm passionate about the power of play and I believe in the healing power of nature, and my goal is to create more healthy experiences for families and individuals by having fun and being outside. Thank you for reading!

I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder and just moved to North Beach in San Francisco. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages and have developed strong skills in childcare, mentoring, and creating engaging environments. For three consecutive summers, I worked at a camp, spending two summers with children ages 4–6 and one summer with teens ages 13–18. These roles gave me a deep understanding of the different needs, interests, and challenges of both younger children and teenagers. I also worked as a lifeguard and taught swim lessons to children of all ages, gaining extensive knowledge in CPR and first aid. Most recently, I served as the Camp Director, where I managed a staff of 10 counselors and worked with 30 different kids each week. This role strengthened my leadership skills, responsibility, and ability to balance the needs of both children and staff. Throughout high school, I also babysat for three different families, where I was responsible for a wide range of tasks—driving kids to activities, helping with homework, cooking, cleaning, and most importantly, building meaningful connections with the kids I cared for. I am actively looking for work in San Francisco, and I truly love working with kids. I pride myself on being adaptable, dependable, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. Whether it’s planning fun activities, supporting academics, or managing day-to-day responsibilities, I approach everything I do with care and enthusiasm.

I love being a sitter because it lets me combine nurturing care with safety and responsibility. I enjoy building trust with families while helping children feel secure, engaged, and supported. I have been helping to raise my brother and cousins since I was 8 years old. I have also been paid to nanny and babysit for over 6 years, caring for children from infancy through adolescence. I plan daily routines, educational play, and behavioral management strategies tailored to each child. My most recent childcare experience is my pediatric care work as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Tamarak Schools in Illinois. There, I provided first aid, medication administration, and monitoring of acute and chronic conditions. I served as a first responder for injuries and illnesses and determined next steps alongside nursing staff. I used clinical assessment skills to identify a heart murmur, pneumonia, and strep throat, which enabled timely intervention. I also responded to a life threatening drowning emergency and performed lifesaving measures until emergency services arrived. Before that, I worked at Lifetime Fitness as a Kids Instructor and later as a Kids Supervisor. As a Kids Instructor, I delivered childcare and observation for children across age groups. I supported hygiene, mobility, and safety. As a Kids Supervisor, I supervised, trained, and evaluated a team of instructors. I managed staff scheduling and ratio requirements. I also led emergency response and parent communication during medical or behavioral incidents. I am CPR certified and a Certified Nursing Assistant. My skills are equally grounded in childcare and medical care. On the childcare side, I bring nurturing supervision, age appropriate activity planning, positive behavior guidance, family communication, and dependable long term care. On the medical side, I bring clinical observation, treatment support, condition monitoring, and infection prevention. Can't wait to meet you!

I've been babysitting on and off for about 10 years now, working with several families with children of all ages. I really enjoy working with kids, taking care of them, and putting a smile on their faces. I spent a year as a regular part-time nanny for a family with two little girls, ages 2-3 and 4-5, who I had a strong relationship with. I also regularly cared for a family with a one year old son, and 6 and 8 year old girls, so I am experienced in taking care of multiple children at a time. I really love to make art and spend time outside, and try to encourage the kids I take care of to do the same while we're spending time together! As for my certifications, I'm CPR certified as well as Red Cross Babysitting certified, and I have an educational background in child development. I'm very confident and comfortable around children, with an easygoing demeanor while still maintaining authority when needed. I tend to try to meet children where they are at, and work with them through any challenges we might encounter. I find that I'm able to connect with kids quite easily, and am always able to make sure they are safe, happy, and cared for.
