Booked by 50 families in Arvada, CO

Hi!! I’m Carlee! I’ve been I Childcare for 12 years 8 of them I have been a nanny I’ve been CPR and first Aid certified for infants to adults for as long as I’ve worked in childcare. I personally have lots of furry babies of my own. I don’t mind helping with cleaning and running errands. I love to sing and dance and craft go to the park and do so many activities.

“10/10 - highly recommend! Carlee has been an incredible babysitter for our family. She's sat for us three times now, and we already have more dates booked because we trust her completely. She's always punctual, often arriving early, which we really appreciate. What stands out most is how quickly our 8-month-old daughter took to her — she was comfortable with Carlee right away, which says a lot. Carlee is patient, kind, and genuinely engaged, whether they're playing, reading books together, or winding down for a nap. She has a natural, easy way with babies that puts both our daughter and us at ease. If you're looking for a sitter who's reliable, warm, and great with infants, Carlee is fantastic.”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
