Ashlee $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I come from a small town in Wisconsin. I’m moving to the Des Moines area at the end of April and will be wanting to start with a family right away! I’ve had the opportunity to work with children ages 3 months old up to 10 years old in my six years of childcare experience. I truly enjoy every stage of childcare and can easily adapt to the families parenting style/ ages of children. I love and put a lot of care into my work as a caregiver. Building connections with the family is one of my favorite things about this field. I like to provide house care such as laundry and basic cleaning.

Sarah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sarah! I recently graduated from Colorado State University with my bachelor’s degree, and after graduating, I decided to follow another passion of mine and attend cosmetology school! I absolutely love working with kids and have been around childcare for as long as I can remember. I have several years of nannying and babysitting experience, along with experience working at a summer camp. Caring for kids has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each child’s personality and becoming someone they feel comfortable and excited to spend time with. I’m outgoing, patient, responsible, dependable, and love staying busy! I enjoy doing crafts, playing outside, going to the park, planning fun activities, helping with homework, having movie nights, and finding ways to keep kids entertained without always relying on screens. I’m also comfortable helping with meals, transportation, school pickup/drop-off, bedtime routines and cleaning around the house. I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your children, and I take that responsibility very seriously. At the same time, I want kids to have fun and feel like their nanny is someone they can look forward to spending time with! I’m hoping to find a great family that I can build a relationship with while balancing my cosmetology school schedule.

Olivia $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a Colorado local from Lafayette. I have been working with children in a professional setting since I was 16 years old. I was a nanny for a family for 4 summers in high school into college, then for another family for 2 summers while in college. I worked as a Preschool teacher for 2 years post-college graduation and also as a Site Director for an after-school program for 2 years as well. I also am a professional figure skater and coach children for private/group lessons. I have extensive training with children ages 0-12 along with Red Cross medical training. I also worked with Disney as a character for multiple years! I currently am a graduate student for Child Psychology at Regis University and am looking for a full-time nanny position with a consistent family while I am in school. My classes are at night so I am available Monday-Friday during regular working hours.

Colleen $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am Colleen! I am a graduate from the University of Denver and current Master's student at VWU, with short-term availability. I began babysitting when I was a freshman in high school, so I have tons of experience. When I began, I obtained red-cross training. Since then, I have been CPR certified through Archbishop Spalding High School. I was recertified for CPR and first aid in July of 2025. I love kids/pets and have much experience with them. For 3 years, I interned at a nature conservancy where I assisted with education and summer camps for young children. If your child needs assistance with online learning or homework, I am happy to help. I have spent time in college working as a part-time nanny/housekeeper. I also am comfortable with housekeeping (cooking dinner, doing dishes, emptying dishwashers, laundry, vacuuming, etc.). Additionally, I have a car and a clean driving record. I am vaccinated against COVID-19 and the flu, with most recent shots and boosters. Please, feel free to reach out with any questions. I am happy to provide a resume and references as requested.

"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."
