Alizee $28 per hour for 1 child
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!
