Booked by 3 families in Aurora, CO

I began babysitting for other families in middle school and naturally started watching pets and helping with housekeeping. I am currently an Auntie caregiver to my neighbors, friends, and family members, and I clean a friends AirBnB. I run my own massage business if you need a massage! Being an older sister I have taken care of my 3 younger siblings since I was 2 years old and helped mom with "chores." Kids are my greatest teachers. I love being active and engaging. I play piano and sand volleyball, studied 8 years of Biology, Chemistry, Nutrition Sciences and minored in Spanish. I am comfortable with all ages from infant to pre-teen, any special needs or dietary restrictions, and all pet and or housekeeping needs <3

Estefania $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Estefania, a warm, responsible, and caring young woman from Colombia. For the past year I've been an au pair in the United States, living with host families in Texas, Colorado, Arizona, and Nevada. This gave me experience adapting to different family routines, parenting styles, and children of different ages and personalities. One of my most recent experiences was helping care for triplets, which taught me patience, organization, and how to stay calm and attentive while managing several little ones at once. I help with daily routines like meals, bath time, naps, playtime, homework, and keeping the kids' spaces tidy. I'm a confident driver (I've been driving since I was 14) and have driven kids in the U.S. before. I speak Spanish natively and English, so I'd love to help your children learn or practice Spanish in a fun, natural way. I'm reliable, respectful of family rules, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy, and loving environment for children. I'm looking for a family where I can become a trusted part of your everyday life.

Kate $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Aurora, CO

Hi everyone! My name is Kate and I'm a recent Cal Poly graduate with over three years of experience caring for children ages 1–15. Most recently, I spent the past year as a nanny for two children (ages 11 and 14), helping with school pick-ups, homework, transportation to sports and activities, errands, meal prep, and creating fun, engaging experiences throughout the week. I'm dependable, energetic, reliable, and love building strong relationships with the families I work with. I'm also comfortable with light household tasks and have my own car. I have 2 dogs and a cat myself, so I love being around pets! Fun Fact: I was on my college dance team for 4 years! I've danced and been active my whole life, so I like to engage kids in that as well. I also have two younger sisters. I'm looking for part-time work any day of the week, ideally on a consistent week-to-week schedule. And I can also do night time for date nights, a night out, etc. – whatever you need! I can provide references upon request. Looking forward to connecting with you!
