“I am always very pleased with the care my 4-year-old son receives from Elizabeth. She consistently demonstrates professionalism and trustworthiness. Not only does she ensure my child’s safety, but she also keeps him happily entertained with creative activities. She is able to take direction well and stays within the guidelines that we give her. It’s clear Elizabeth genuinely cares and has a natural ability to connect with children. I highly recommend her to any family looking for a reliable and engaging babysitter!”
I have Master's degree in young child education with a Montessori focus, I am certified to work with children 0 to 6 years old and I am most comfortable to work with children newborn to 6 years old, but I have experience with children up to 10 years old. I am an AMI trained Montessori guide and have greatly enjoyed my time with children in the classroom. I went back to school during the pandemic and became a speech therapist. I now specialize in early intervention services. I have worked with children ages 12 mo to 6 years old in a school setting over the last ten years but am now focusing on home care because of COVID risks in schools. I believe in interacting with children as unique individuals, showing them full respect and helping them develop personal independence, social skills, and a true sense of self confidence.
Hi! I’m Jhoselyn, but you can call me Jhose 😊 I’m a caring, patient, and responsible nanny with experience looking after children of all ages — from newborns to teenagers, including twins. I truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and positive environment. My duties include preparing meals, organizing activities, assisting with homework, and maintaining a nurturing atmosphere. As a bonus, I can also help your children learn Spanish as their second language 🇨🇴✨ I consider myself an independent and adventurous person who loves discovering new things. I’m passionate about providing the best care and building meaningful connections with every family I work with
Hello! I’m Hailey and I’m 27 years old. I've been babysitting since I was 15. Have been a full time nanny for the last 8 years. Have stayed with families long term, as long as 3.5 years. I have a lot of experience with having a toddler and infant at the same time. I was a Preschool Assistant Teacher at The Academy ECE(Feb 2017-August 2017). I was a Group Leader with the YMCA Childcare Program(March 2016-Feb 2017). My Junior year of high school I was an after school nanny to a developmentally disabled 14 year old. I love engaging with kids and helping them learn/grow. I enjoy arts and crafts, singing, reading books, board+card games, dramatic play, hide and seek, riding bikes, etc. I can take kids on outings to the park, museums, zoo, library for story time, etc. I know of a lot of fun kid places! I’m very responsible, trustworthy, and nurturing. I've done many trainings through the YMCA and The Academy such as CPR, fire safety, bloodbourne safety, child abuse, social and emotional, etc. Let me know if you have any questions, thank you!
Hi my name is Debbie Wood, I would be interested in babysitting for you. I am retired and slightly handicapped but I would love to babysit. I worked for Avaya (Lucent, AT&T, Bell Labs and Western Electric) for 38 1/2 years. I am looking for ways to make a little extra money for a cruise I am taking next January. I am a Christian and attend Flatirons Community Church where I volunteer working with youth (12 - 18 years old at Open Door Ministry. Theses children live with their mom in a shelter or on the streets. Two other couples and I prepare a dinner meal and serve them. I'm retired from officiated soccer for 27 years and also was an Assessor and Instructor for United States Soccer Federation 30 years. I have worked with youth a very long time. I mentor a girl at risk with Save Our Youth, in the Denver area. I have been finger printed and had a back ground check to make sure I could be around kids..
