Hi! I am a 19-year-old caregiver. I have 5 years of experience working with children of all ages, from babies to grade-schoolers. I've worked in a nursery and daycare, as well as being a full-time nanny for a 7-year-old boy! I'm creative, enthusiastic, and empathetic, with a passion for engaging kids through crafts, music, and fun games. I am a Musical Theatre major at CU Boulder and absolutely love entertaining kids! I'm also very comfortable with pets, cooking, chores, and even helping with homework. With my first aid certification and reliable transportation, I'm ready to provide excellent care for your family. Let me know how I can help, and I look forward to meeting you!
“I would highly recommend Tessa for babysitting! She has watched my 16 month old many times. She is very patient, fun, trustworthy and loving.”
Hi! I'm Alizée (pronounced Ah-lee-zay)! I'm a 21 year old from California and a recent Rollins College graduate who recently moved to Boulder. I'm bubbly, energetic, and creative, and I love spending time with kids. I have been babysitting kids of all ages for over five years now. Whether we're making crafts, baking, exploring outside, playing games, or simply chatting, I enjoy creating a fun, positive environment where kids feel safe to be themselves. I speak both English and French and love cooking, hiking, skiing, Pilates, yoga, and spending time in nature. I also love traveling and learning about different cultures. I studied abroad in New Zealand and recently spent the summer in Europe studying French in Lille and fashion in Copenhagen. I'm happy to help with homework, meal prep, arts and crafts, outdoor play, bedtime routines, household tidying, and caring for family pets (I’m a big animal lover!). This is my first time using this app so I would be more than happy to provide references. I’m dependable, responsible, and excited to become a trusted part of your family's support system!
Hello! My name is Christine. I have been babysitting for several years. My first official job at 13 years old was through a work force program that allowed me to be a daycare worker and summer camp counselor at the daycare. I have several cousins and a handful of nieces and nephews that I have cared for before, during, and after my mother had her own daycare in our home. And I am currently a Substitute teacher focusing on Early Childhood Education! This means I am thrown into rooms with all the younger age groups every day or few weeks, learning new children regularly and adapting to new environments. I was in the medical field for several years and was most recently running a non-profit Doula training organization. However, I find the most joy in nurturing children and helping their little minds grow!
Hello there. My name is Nicole and I have been an educator for 10 years. I teach elementary students and it’s truly my passion to help students meet their learning goals. When I’m not teaching, I love to cook, hike with my dog and do yoga. I am an animal lover as well and love to take my dog on nice long walks.
Hello! My name is Elizabeth. I have been a kindergarten, first grade, and third grade teacher. I am a mom of three children who are now in college or beyond. I love to read and play games. I am artistic and creative. I love the outdoors. I am responsible and reliable. I have an excellent driving record. I am able to provide light housekeeping and pet care too. I would love to be a part time nanny for your little one(s)!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
