Laura Gabriela $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Gabriela, a nanny and I had been au pair with experience in childcare. I recently took care of two girls, ages 3 and 6, organizing creative and educational activities to support their development. I enjoy painting, reading stories, and doing crafts with children. I also have skills to help with homework and encourage positive habits. Additionally, I have experience caring for pets, including walking, feeding, and playing. I am comfortable with large animals and those that shed. I also offer light household services such as basic cleaning, laundry, and organization. I am responsible, patient, and reliable. I’d love to help with your little ones or pets

Lauren $19 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I am a mom to a 2.5-year-old. I am CPR and first aid certified. In addition to this, I've had many different experiences caring for children, ranging from being a nanny to teaching and working at youth organizations and schools. Experience: --I was a nanny for a 13- and 14-year-old the summer after college. --I worked at a home for children in Mexico for three years, where I cared for the children and helped with various education projects. --I taught reading and writing at an elementary school and was a Community School Director at a junior high. --I have a Master’s Degree in International Development and Education and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy. Beyond childcare, I also have experience caring for animals. At home, I take care of our two dogs as well as geese, ducks, and chickens. These responsibilities have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a routine—qualities that carry over into caregiving for children. I love caring for children and animals alike and have made it my life’s work to nurture, teach, and support others!

Gabi $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a 4th Grade teacher in Denver Public Schools district on summer break. I’ve taught elementary grade levels (all subjects!) for 6 years. Throughout the years, I’ve taught 3rd grade, 2nd grade, and 4th grade. I am very familiar with the Literacy and Math standards progression from K-5 and the strategies/language students need to learn to reach their academic goals. In past summers, I have taught summer school, coordinated summer camps, and worked for the parks and rec department a coaching soccer and basketball. I believe that learning needs to be a great mix of hard work and fun! This summer, I decided to take the summer off and not commit to a full time position. So here I am- still very much eager to be around kids on a part time basis. I’m excited to meet you, your family, and learn about how I can be the most helpful!

Brandi $25 per hour for 1 child

I have had the privilege of working as a dedicated nanny, providing exceptional care and support to children from various backgrounds. It has been incredibly rewarding to witness their growth and development, and I take pride in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for them. For three years, I had the wonderful opportunity to work as a toddler teacher at La Petite. This experience allowed me to contribute to the early education of young children and shape their journey in discovering the world around them. I gained valuable insights into child development, honed my classroom management skills, and developed engaging activities that helped foster their curiosity and imagination. During my two years as a tutor, I had the pleasure of assisting students in their academic journeys. By offering personalized instruction and guidance, I was able to help them overcome challenges and reach their full potential. Adapting my teaching methods to cater to their individual learning styles was crucial in ensuring their success, and witnessing their progress was incredibly fulfilling. As a substitute teacher, I had the opportunity to step into various classrooms and adapt quickly to new environments. This role allowed me to gain versatility and resilience, managing different classroom dynamics and delivering lessons across various subjects. It was a dynamic and fast-paced experience that further sharpened my skills as an educator. Most recently, I spent two years as a kindergarten teacher, a role that brought me immense joy and fulfillment. Guiding young children through their first experiences in formal education was a privilege. I designed engaging lesson plans, fostered a positive and inclusive learning environment, and helped my students develop academically, socially, and emotionally. Witnessing their growth and enthusiasm for learning was truly gratifying. Collectively, my seven years as a nanny, three years as a toddler teacher at La Petite, two years as a tutor, substitute teacher, and kindergarten teacher have shaped me into a passionate and versatile educator. My commitment to the well-being and development of children, along with my ability to create engaging and enriching experiences, make me confident in my skills and excited for future opportunities in the field.
