Robyn 1 review
$17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have over 20 years of experience in providing care for families with little ones and also with my own older children who are all in college now. Making sure your child is safe, happy, and relaxed in my care is my top priority. I love doing arts and crafts, puzzles, reading books, painting, spending time outside and also doing educational-based play activities. I am certified in First Aid and CPR and I am a non-smoker with no pets. I am interested in working with a family that is looking for long-term care. I am available for full or part time care. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile!

“Robyn is truly a special person who was meant to care for children. She has so many avenues available to help the children in her care grow, develop, and master skills in many different areas. She helps with personal and social development for the children in her care. Getting a spot in her care is the greatest thing you can do for your child and family. I can’t imagine working with ulterior care because it could never measure up to how special Robyn is and how she treats my family as if it were her own.”

Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CO

Hello! My name is Jolyne, I'm a student on hiatus at CU Boulder and looking for nanny work here in Boulder or adjacent areas. I have previous experience as a full time nanny for a child from four months to two years of age. I also have informal experience taking care of older children from age three to six, pet sitting for cats dogs and exotics, and as a house cleaner. I prefer a firm but gentle caretaking approach and love focusing on ways to engage a child's development. I have experience planning educational activities, development exercises for skills like sitting and crawling, day trips and casual excursions, meal planning, arts and crafts, and more! I worked with my previous child on multilingual comprehension including basic Spanish and ASL. I am also open to school pick ups, other driving needs, as well as tutoring. I do have some experience with kids with special needs, and have experienced learning difficulties myself that's provided me better perspective. Previous positions have required me to plan and make meals, as well as wash dishes and laundry, do basic tidying, and even deep clean the home. As mentioned I am open to pet care, including walks, litter cleanup, feedings, cage care, and more. Please let me know if there's any other specialized skills you may require and if you're willing to teach me. I love fostering new generations and lead with an excited, compassionate, and patient approach. I love kids of all ages and am willing to be flexible based on the child's and family's needs. I would really appreciate you reaching out if I seem like a good fit to discuss your needs and a meetup with your family : - )

“Jolyne is proactive and communicates clearly. She arrived ahead of schedule and was thoughtful in assisting with the household tasks I assigned. She also asked insightful questions about how she could be more effective and helpful.”

I have been a teacher, substitute, tutor, sitter, and caregiver on and off for many years. My bachelor's degree is in Landscape Architecture, giving me a specialty in gardening and nature, and I've nearly completed a course in Childhood Mental Health. I am able to provide transportation for up to 2 children under 13 or 3 people over 13. I can walk or care for dogs but I have allergies, so may have to limit exposure to them and cats indoors.

Ally $27 per hour for 1 child

As a childcare professional I have experience in the classroom and as a personal nanny. As a nanny I have helped raised 3 young boys from infants to school age for 6 years. After I cared for 2 young girls who I helped care for at their home and activities outside of the home for 4 years. I then travelled to Colorado where I worked two summers for 2 boys. Those summers were filled with taking the boys on adventures and providing a fun, loving, calm environment at home. While I was traveling, I also provided care for families on vacation in different states. With my years of experiences, I have been able to provide exceptional care for my families. I remain calm under pressure and have many learned skills to support your kids however they need. My hope is to continue to make priceless memories and assist families with their always growing and learning kids.

"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."
