Adelaida $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Wheat Ridge, CO

My name is Adelaida, and I bring over 20 years of experience working with children in both home-based and school environments. I am passionate about providing safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate care for children of all ages. I began my career as a Daycare Teacher from 1998 to 2000, where I supported young children through engaging activities, routine care, and early learning experiences. From 2002 to 2004, I worked as a babysitter, caring for infants and young children by creating a warm and structured environment, assisting with feeding, diapering, naps, playtime, and age-appropriate learning. From 2004 to 2022, I continued my work as a professional educator in the Philippines and the United States, gaining extensive experience in early childhood and elementary teaching. This includes roles at Royal Era Academy, Upper Bicutan Elementary School, White Sulphur Springs School in Montana, and Inner City School in Denver. Most recently, I served as an Assistant Teacher at Inner City Christian School from August 13, 2025 to November 7, 2025, supporting classroom routines, helping children learn through play, and collaborating with families and staff. I am currently with Kokua Ed as a Substitute Teacher (Nov. 10 to present), where I work with toddlers, preschool, and elementary students across different classrooms. Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in child supervision, classroom management, emotional support, creative play, and maintaining consistent routines. I am patient, dependable, and genuinely love caring for children. My goal as a nanny or babysitter is to create a safe, loving, and encouraging environment where children can grow, learn, explore, and feel valued. I would be honored to support your family and provide high-quality care for your child or children.

Jimena $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Wheat Ridge, CO

Hello, my name is Jimena! I am new here and looking to connect with families who need last minute or weekend help! I am also bilingual as I speak Spanish! I’m a recent graduate from the University of Colorado Boulder, currently based between Denver and Boulder. I can provide references as well if requested! I have over 8 years of experience with babysitting and nannying. Being the oldest of four girls, the care taker role came very naturally, my youngest sister is 10 years younger than me! In addition to the responsibilities of being a caretaker, I can also help with laundry, cooking and light cleaning. Ages that I have most experience with are newborns - 8years. However, I have taken care of children of all ages, even teenagers.

Armicia $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I have has the opportunity to care for littles for about 16 years in a variety of ways! I have had the opportunity to babysit my niece and nephews who range from newborn to 15 years old. Within the last 3 years, I regular babysit for a sibling group of 5 that ranges from elementary age through high school age. In this home there is also 2 dogs and 2 cats. What makes me a great candidate is my work experience. I have worked for the department of children services as a case worker, a victim advocate and forensic interviewer and finally I have worked as an in home counselor for children. I pride myself on being a kid at heart and my ability to play and create fun experiences for children. I love a clean space so whenever o have the opportunity to babysit littles, I make sure that the home is back in functioning order for when the parents return. I love littles and their ability and desire to communicate with us as adults in there language at every developmental stage. I do hope that you consider me to look after your little ones.

Jo $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi friends! My name is Jo (they/he) and I am an artist, big fan of anything outdoors, and visual arts instructor for kids. During my college years, I worked with kids in various environments: group homes, foster families, and as a personal nanny for 3 different families. After I graduated with my degree in journalism and mass communications, I realized what truly fuels me is getting to help children bloom! For the last 3 years, I have worked with kids age 4-18+ as a visual arts instructor. This has allowed me to connect with the intersections of my own identity. I’ve taught art to non-profits that work with Queer kids, kids with cancer, and kids within the Des Moines Public School system. I currently teach summer camps at the Arvada Center on: Drawing, Eco-Art, Sculpture, and Painting. I would really love to work with a family that would like to include some art lessons/days for the kids. I’m flexible for the next month before I begin subbing full time in Denver. I look forward to connecting with you and seeing if we are the right fit for one another.

"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."
