$18 per hour for 1 child

I believe babysitting shouldn't just be a job, but also a chance to play and grow. Between my time as a camp counselor, horseback riding instructor, and park ranger, I have approximately 3 years of aggregate experience caring for children of all ages. I'm EMR, CPR, and first aid certified and can take on a variety of tasks, including household chores, cooking, and helping with homework. I love arts and crafts and believe they are a great way to express yourself and keep the mind busy and away from electronics. Even as an adult, I still enjoy crafting in my free time and will gladly bring along any crafting supplies needed. I have my own vehicle and driver's license along with a spotless driving record. I'm able and happy to provide transportation as needed. I love animals of all kinds and have professional experience caring for them as well. I live on a humble 3-acre farm out in Strasburg, Colorado, and am willing to drive up to 50 minutes to a requested location. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can provide the care you're looking for.

Julia Aurora
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Julia, and I am a licensed educator with a Master's degree in Education who is passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive. Over the past several years, I have worked as a nanny, an infant classroom teacher, and a middle school English teacher, giving me experience supporting children from infancy through adolescence. I believe children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore the world around them. I enjoy spending time outdoors, reading stories, singing songs, creating sensory activities, and following each child's interests while supporting their developmental milestones. I value consistency, patience, and open communication with parents, and I strive to create a calm, nurturing environment where children can build confidence and independence. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, am comfortable with pets, and am looking for a long-term position with a family where I can build a meaningful relationship and become a trusted, dependable part of your child's life.
