Hello!!! My name is Deanna and I have been a Colorado resident for 10 years; I have been watching children for 20+ years! **I am the current nanny in a share so am only looking for occasional or evening gigs, thank you** I am comfortable with children as young as newborns and as old as teenagers. I have assisted in raising at least a dozen babies to toddlers and beyond. I am comfortable with one or two children up to a whole classroom of children. I have worked in individual family's homes, after-school programs, pre-schools, been an au pair internationally and have watched many children at birthday parties and on family vacations. When it comes to child care, there is almost nothing that can surprise me or that I haven’t seen or experienced before. I am caring, compassionate, consistent, dependable and fun. I grew up in a family where both parents worked full-time and therefore, I like to be a good role model for children because the sitters I had in my childhood were huge influences on me and I would like to be the same positive influence. I believe in consistency, teaching independence that fosters growth and new ideas, and learning through play. I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and adventure and of arts and crafts. I recognize that children are the future and believe it’s important to teach them valuable skills such as manners, empathy and kindness to carry with them throughout life. I look forward to learning more about you and your family :)
Hi there! I work as a special education teacher in the school district. I have 15 years of experience working in various settings (nannying, healthcare, schools) with children ranging in age from infants to teens. I enjoy building rapport with children and supporting their development through play. I believe that children I care for see me as a fun, patient, supportive, trustworthy, and loving person. More about me: - I have 7 years of experience working with children with developmental disabilities - I am a certified child life specialist, certified nursing assistant and certified behavioral technician - I have experience with medication administration and G-tube feedings - I earned my bachelor's degree in social work and master's degree in child life - I have basic skills in speaking spanish and ASL - Some of my favorite activities with children are doing arts and crafts, playing games, and spending time outside
Hi families! Update March 2026* I am working full time during the weekdays and am available for occasional & date night sitting only in the evening or weekends* My name is Emma, I've been babysitting and nannying for a little over 8 years now. I went to college for social work, and I have worked with kids in a variety of environments from school as a paraprofessional, to tutoring, nannying, as well as being a case manager. I am looking for occasional positions, one time, or part time. I have a clean driving record, my own vehicle, & I’m CPR/first aid certified. I am comfortable with pets as I grew up with cats and dogs. I love doing different activities with kids from games, puzzles & crafts, playing outside, reading, and everything in between! I have experience working with children from infant to teenage years. I am also happy to prepare meals and help with light housekeeping as well. I look forward to talking with you. Best, Emma

Hi there! My name is Paige and I have just relocated to Denver and am excited to connect with new families! I'm an experienced childcare professional with a passion for creating engaging and enriching experiences for children. My journey in childcare has taken me through a variety of child-centered roles, shaping my skills and understanding of the unique needs of each child. As a coach and educator, I learned the importance of teamwork and communication, skills that are invaluable when caring for children. Guiding young minds to work together not only fosters a positive environment but also encourages personal growth. My time as a camp counselor allowed me to explore experiential learning, incorporating activities that not only entertain but also educate. From nature walks to science experiments, I believe in hands-on experiences that spark curiosity and foster a love for learning. Ski instructing added an element of adventure to my repertoire. Teaching children to navigate the slopes taught me patience and adaptability. I understand the importance of tailoring activities to each child's abilities, ensuring they feel both challenged and supported. This approach carries into my babysitting style, where I create age-appropriate activities that cater to individual interests and developmental stages. Transitioning into the role of a professional caregiver deepened my commitment to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. I prioritize outdoor creative play, recognizing the immense benefits it brings to a child's physical and mental well-being. From arts and crafts under the sun to imaginative play in the backyard, I encourage creativity and self-expression. What sets me apart is my dedication to creating memorable experiences that go beyond traditional childcare. I aim to foster a sense of wonder, instill a love for learning, and promote a healthy lifestyle through engaging activities. My diverse background equips me with a well-rounded approach to childcare, ensuring that every child under my care not only feels safe but also thrives in a world of exploration and imagination!
“Paige was amazing! She cleaned with such detail and care. Would love to have her back!”
