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.

Nica has been great watching my son multiple times this year. She's been very engaging with him and he's super excited when he gets to see her.

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 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.

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.***

Cathy worked with our family for many years, both full-time and part-time, and helped manage the household. She cared for our youngest son between the ages of 2 and 6 and my oldest son with Asperger's between the ages of 12 and 16. We love her dearly; she only left us because she moved out of state.

I love being around/apart of kids lives! I’ve been babysitting off and on since I was 14. I like to make any family i’m babysitting for to feel like i’m apart of their home and routine. I am a full time flight attendant. I normally have around 12 days off a month. I know my schedule a month in advance, on the 17th of every month. Whether you need me for a date night, or school pickup and drop offs, i’m your girl! I am very good with kids and love being around people. I am also good around animals. Back home in Florida I have two dogs and a cat. In my free time I love to do things with friends and family and I enjoy going on vacations anywhere with clear water and a beach.

Hi families! My name is Paola, and caring for children is something I genuinely enjoy. I love being part of their little milestones, watching their personalities develop, helping them discover new things, and creating meaningful connections with them. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, loved, encouraged, and supported, and I always do my best to create that kind of environment. I have approximately 8 years of childcare experience working with private families and through a babysitting agency. I've cared for children from as young as 3 months to 11 years old, including infants, toddlers, twins, and multiple children at once. I've held both full-time and part-time positions and have experience adapting to different family routines, parenting styles, and individual needs. My experience includes infant care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, nap schedules, preparing children's meals, organizing playtime, supporting developmental milestones, and keeping children's spaces tidy. I enjoy planning activities that are both fun and beneficial for their development, such as reading, arts and crafts, painting, puzzles, educational games, music, outdoor adventures, playground visits, and nature walks. I also enjoy encouraging children's independence, creativity, curiosity, and confidence through age-appropriate activities. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition and Food Science from Universidad Iberoamericana Puebla in Mexico. I also have additional training in infant and toddler development, early learning, social-emotional development, positive behavior support, and childcare safety. In addition, I completed a 200-hour Hatha and Vinyasa yoga teacher training and an introductory First Responder course. I'm a native Spanish speaker and fluent in English, and I would be happy to introduce Spanish to children through everyday conversations, songs, stories, and play if that's something their family is interested in. As a person, I consider myself patient, nurturing, responsible, easygoing, and dependable. I value open communication with parents and always make an effort to understand and respect each family's routines and parenting preferences. My goal is to build a trusting relationship with both parents and children while providing reliable, attentive, and loving care. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and become someone you feel comfortable trusting with your little ones!
