Hi There, I'm Kristy! I am working from home at the moment so have more flexibility in babysitting jobs I can take... I’m in the top 1% of local caregivers via Care. com and have a lot of sitting experience, starting with two younger brothers. I was a nanny and a substitute teacher in college. Due to how complicated and confusing it can be for the little ones, I prefer to not sit for a parent(s) who would be working at home while I’m there. I am creative, imaginative, fun, interactive and love to make kids laugh! I respect your time, family and home, I am clean, caring and considerate. I have been on UrbanSitter and Care. com for over 6 years. I really enjoy being around kids in general and love the things they say and do. CPR Certified and Clear Motor Vehicle and Background Check. Bachelors in Marketing and have had the same job for over 18 years. I have been in Colorado for over 24 years and am from Illinois/Wisconsin. I had a golden retriever for over 10 years, who I lost late 2017 - so I am comfortable and enjoy being around dogs/animals as well... Thank you for your interest! Kristy

Hi! My name is Macey, and I'm a full time nanny, with a degree in Human Development and Family Studies. I currently run my own swim lesson business, where I teach little kiddos to swim. I miss living with all my siblings (I have 8, so it's a bit of a withdrawal). I would love to experience some part time babysitting. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified. I worked as a preschool teacher and a high school severe special needs assistant for 2.5 years, as well as nannied professionally for 7 years! I look forward to working with your kiddos!

My name is Gina. I enjoy taking care of kids and am for your children's safety. I am pretty even-keel, but I can be very silly if your kiddo is silly. I would be happy to take your children to the neighborhood park, amusement park, zoo, museums, water park, Aquarium, Chucky Cheese, etc., if you let me know ahead of time. Or I am also fine just staying at your place in your children's environment as well. You choose. I am mainly a fun, attentive babysitter. (Please note, I do not make homes messy. The review that speaks of a messy house was from someone whose house was very messy when I entered, and there was not request for a maid, only a babysitter). Also, even if you see my schedule says I'm unavailable, please just ask. I might actually be available. Sometimes I forget to update my availability.

Gina was amazing definitely will use her again!
