Hello! My name is keyla, and I have a strong background in caregiving, pet care, and household services. I’m passionate about helping families stay organized, supported, and stress-free. With several years of hands-on experience, I bring patience, reliability, and a positive attitude to every task I take on. I have over 3 years of experience caring for children of all ages varying from 3-13 years old. I love engaging kids in creative activities like crafts, storytelling, and educational games. I’m also happy to assist with homework and tutoring. I’m certified in CPR and first aid as well. I’ve cared for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and small mammals. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or administering medication, I approach each pet with love and patience. I’m comfortable with large dogs and animals that shed, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I offer a range of household services including cleaning, organizing, running errands, grocery shopping, and light meal prep. I’m detail-oriented and take pride in maintaining a tidy and welcoming environment.

Paige $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Paige I am 31 and just moved to Denver after living in Humboldt County, Ca for the last ten years. The last five years I was a professional tattoo artist. I graduated from Humboldt State University with a BA in Fine Arts in 2015 and began my tattoo apprenticeship in 2017. I am originally from Fairbanks, Alaska where I lived until I was 18 and then moved to Missoula, Montana for my first two years of college. I moved to Humboldt County in 2012. I have worked customer service jobs since I was 13 mostly in restaurants and cafes. Although my past job experience of the last 5 years is eccentric and not of the norm, I have many other skills and have many years of experience when it comes to customer service. Tattooing is energy work and one of the most important elements of the process for me, was making sure my clients felt safe and comfortable while having me alter their bodies for the rest of their lives. Animals and children often are very comfortable around me as I have a calm and gentle energy. I deeply love dogs and other animals and often feel a connection to them. I do not have any children of my own but enjoy being around them very much at all ages. I did own and love many animals over the ten years of being in California and unfortunately had to leave behind my large breed dogs, Odin and Thor, who stayed with my ex partner of almost 7 years. I am incredibly detailed oriented, dependable, clean, punctual, have a good attitude and am a fast learner. I love being outdoors and going on adventures and being active, but also love to find means of entertainment inside on rainy days, like arts and crafts or reading or rearranging a room. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, organizing and trying to create a vibe in a space.

Elena $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Elena, and I currently work in child care - more specifically, with infants aged 3 months to 18 months in a licensed child care facility. The preschool I currently work at is Reggio based, so learning through play and nature is my current experience in early childhood education. I am exploring full-time work as a nanny because I feel that with my knowledge from working in child care as well as my working education of ECE, I would be very beneficial in the growth of an individual child. I have worked with many different age groups, ranging from infants to high schoolers. I found my passion with caring for infants! I currently have a class of 8, with 2 teachers including myself, so I am well versed with caring for multiple children at the same time! I have found that caring for multiple babies can be difficult from time to time, but I have also learned a lot about time management and organization through this type of work. Please feel free to ask me any questions!

"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."
