Jenny 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Arvada, CO

We have hired Jenny several times now and each time she is responsive, reliable, eager to learn about our kids (ages 8 & 9), and find ways to connect with them. She is easy going, willing to meet the needs we express or go with the flow when we don't have much specific instructions. We feel at ease when we are away and our boys are really enjoying getting to know her and they really appreciate having someone play the active stuff they like to do.

Jennifer $30 per hour for 1 child

Mother of two successful female college graduates looking for extra income in my off season. I work as a self employed Landscape Architect and have flexible time throughout the season. I realize I miss having kiddos around and love to spend time, teach, cook, play with them. I taught cooking school for kids so that’s an activity I have lots of experience with! I love pets too and happy to take both human and fur babies on urban adventures.

Miracle $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Miracle, a 24-year-old babysitter with a real passion for child development and care. I’ve worked with kids of all ages and genuinely enjoy creating fun and nurturing environments for them to thrive. I focus on making sure each child feels supported and engaged, whether we’re playing, learning, or just hanging out. If you’re looking for someone who’s both reliable and enthusiastic about caring for your little ones, I’d love to chat and see how I can help. I’m currently working with a family weekly, but am available for things like date nights, errand runs, or just a break for you to do with as you please!

Marina $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Marina after 8 fulfilling years as a nanny, I’ve had the privilege of caring for all age ranges. I have a dog and cat of my own and am happy to also provide care to the fur babies as well. From gentle cuddles to adventurous outdoor excursions, I’ve cherished every moment of nurturing young minds and hearts. I enjoy encouraging imagination and foster a gentle approach to nannying. Now, I’m excited to combine my passion for child care with advanced nursing skills as I pursue my FNP with a specialization in pediatrics. I would love to help out your family!

Sierra $17 per hour for 1 child

After working as a baby sitter for a few years I got a job working with a business in Durango Colorado called Nifty Nanny through 2017 and 2018. After that I kept doing babysitting in Tuscon Arizona. In 2021 I worked at a overnight summer camp called Colvig Silver Camps for 2 months so I’ll have plenty of games and activities to keep your kids happy. I have CPR certification and Wilderness First Aid Certification.
