My husband Bill and I have lived in the same home in Aurora since we got married April 17, 1993. I am a retired professional with LOTS of childcare/babysitting experience and LOVE to be around children. I am CPR/AED and First Aid certified, 27 yrs plus ski instructor for Special Olympics and Breckenridge Outdoor Educational Center (BOEC). I have mentored for Save Our Youth, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Whiz Kids and more. I am fully vaccinated, have a current background/fingerprint check every year with HopSkipDrive and volunteering with kids at my church. Excellent driving record, to include medical certification required by the state of CO. I am a college graduate, retired from the Dept of Veterans Affairs, and an empty nester looking to keep myself young and busy.

We have enjoyed having Laurie watch our two children (5 and 3 years old) on several occasions to babysit at our home.. She is friendly, professional, punctual, reliable, qualified, and really everything we were looking for. Glad we found Laurie! We will continue to use her, and recommend her.

Laurie was great with our daughter and very dependable. She stopped by to meet us first which we really appreciated. She was on time, communicative, and we felt safe leaving my 2 year old daughter in her care. Recommend!
