Booked by 3 families in Denver, CO

Hello! My name is Alison, I go by Ally most of the time and I am a college student at MSU Denver. I offer babysitting services along with small things such as household tasks and errands. I have two younger siblings and a lot of younger cousins I have looked after. I have done pickups and drop offs, driving to various locations, tutored and have done many routines needed for children. I have worked at a Youth Sports League and interacted with many kids during my time there. I loved the job! I love kids as I am an Early Childhood Education major! Having a good relationship with them is the most important thing for me and having an overall good time while taking care of them.

“Alison was prompt and warm and brought a lot of calm energy to play with my 3 year old son. ”

I am a mental health therapist (LCSW) looking for part time/date night/weekends jobs to supplement my income and connect me back to the joyous work of supporting youth. I am adventurous, empathetic, responsible, and proactive. I am 30 years old and have been working with kids and pets since I was probably about 14. I have worked as an after-school nanny, completing school pickups and activities, as well as a babysitter fo a variety of ages. I worked as a mother’s-helper for a mother who had twins, supporting her with household cleaning and meals, as well as taking care of her 3 year old daughter. Previously, I worked as a behavior therapist for kids with autism and as a paraprofessional in an elementary school for kids with behavioral and developmental disabilities. Last, my most fun position was as an adventure camp counselor leading kids on various outdoor activities and camping trips. I have a lot of experience! In my free time (and if I can overlap it with work) I love to spend my time outdoors snowboarding, hiking, camping, biking, hanging in the park or walking my dog. I'm very active and love to stay busy and aim to encourage play, adventure and calm in the kiddos I work with. I also have lots of experience caring for dogs (and cats a little). Currently, I have a 7.5 year old german shephard/husky mutt and have dog-sat for many people. Last, I have a reliable car that I don't mind driving kids in to and from activities. Look forward to connecting!

“Zoe was great!”
