Kelsi $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kelsi and I’m a caring and dependable nanny with over six years of childcare experience, primarily caring for infants. For the past four years, I’ve worked in a Montessori environment, where I’ve loved fostering independence, curiosity, and confidence in young children. As a mom to two little girls, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your children. I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where little ones can learn, grow, and feel at home. I’m looking forward to becoming a trusted support for a wonderful family.

Hi! I’m an experienced, bilingual (English/Spanish) caregiver who works with elementary school students. I’m patient, energetic, and great at creating a safe, positive, and structured environment.

Kara $20 per hour for 1 child

I love working with children and have babysat throughout my life, caring for kids of various ages and adapting to their individual needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. I also lived in Thailand for three years, where I taught English to third- and fourth-grade students. This experience strengthened my communication skills, patience, and ability to manage routines while keeping learning engaging and positive.

Ivanna $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Ivanna, and I am here to make your life a little easier! I am a bilingual educator offering pet care, child care, senior care, and household services in Denver and surrounding neighborhoods. A bit about me- I was born in Puerto Rico, grew up in St Louis, and have been living in Denver since 2021. I love all things fun- music, dancing, cooking, playing games and sports, learning new things, being outside, chatting over coffee, hanging out with furry friends, and creating art in all its forms:) My experience- Throughout my life, I have cared for family members- young and old- as well as their pets and homes. I have also tutored and taught a wide range of ages on an even wider range of topics including science, music theory, and Spanish! I am currently working as an educator and performer at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and have worked full time as a pet sitter and nanny in the past. What I can offer you- I am here to lighten your load. Need the kids dropped off at school and the dog walked in the morning? I've got you. Need the bathroom cleaned, laundry done, and kitchen pantry organized? I've got you. Long term care, short term care, pet care, child care, senior care, errands, cleaning, meal prep, pick ups/drop offs- you name it! If you need an extra hand with anything listed or not, message me about it! I'd love to work something out:)

Madalena $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maddie, I am a mother to my beautiful nine month old daughter who is my complete rock, and my world! I have worked with kids for as long as I can remember and love working with all ages. I am currently in school right now to become a elementary school teacher. I love to workout, and go on walks with my daughter, along with going on little adventures with her and my family. I am certified in CPR, and have all of my lead training hours through Colorado Peak academy. I am willing to do as much as you might need for there, and that can be as little as just doing the dishes, or cleaning the whole house! I personally love to clean so if you need to me I don’t mind at all! I am looking forward to connecting with families and creating bonds with your children🤍

"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."
