Ana $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ana, I’m 41 years old, and I have 26 years of experience working with children. I started working with children when I was 16. I spent 5 years working in a nursery with babies from 4 months to 2 years old. I then worked for 4 years at a school supporting children with special needs. During that time, I also worked part-time with a family for 9 years. Eventually, I moved to Denver and continued working with the same family, caring for their children for a total of 18 years. I’m currently a Business student and a mom to a sweet baby boy. I’m looking to connect with a wonderful family for a nanny or nanny-share position, and I will be available starting mid-October. I’m passionate about working with children and creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where they can learn and grow. If you or someone you know is looking for an experienced, caring, and reliable nanny, please feel free to reach out!

Gwendolyn $35 per hour for 1 child

After years in corporate accounting and running my own business, I’m transitioning to a more fulfilling career in childcare. I’m a devoted mom with deep life experience, including caring for my late son during hospice and supporting my second child, S., through his gender transition. Today, S. is thriving—an honor roll student, Truman Scholarship finalist, Alpine Club officer, Best Student Employee award winner, and college scholarship recipient. I served on the board of the Montessori school, that both of my children attended, and bring a calm, structured, and creative approach to caregiving. I hold a degree in Business Management, live in Denver, and enjoy art, gardening, and design. I’m warm, reliable, and nurturing, with a focus on helping kids feel safe, confident, and seen. CPR/First Aid certification was completed on May 19, 2025. It would be my honor to support your child’s growth and happiness. With a background in high-level administrative and accounting roles, I bring organization, attention to detail, and reliability to every task. My experience managing complex schedules, multitasking under pressure, and supporting executive teams has equipped me with strong time management and problem-solving skills—essential in a childcare setting. As a former small business owner, I’ve worn many hats, from logistics and event planning to communication and compliance, demonstrating the flexibility and calm demeanor that families need. I also volunteer in community support roles, reinforcing my natural caregiving instincts and commitment to nurturing others. My lived experience as a devoted mother and caregiver adds emotional intelligence, compassion, and real-world parenting insight to my professional capabilities.

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
