Hi, my name is Paula and I’m a caring nanny with 4 years of experience—2 years in the United States and 2 years in my home country. I have enjoyed this experience working with children and creating a fun and engaging environment for them while I learn a lot. I have a big experience taking care of three kids (7,5,1 y.o) this experience in particular has been enriching my skills and my capacity of handling different challenging situations like daily duties , playtime for them, stressful times and overall my capacity to be mindfulness and remain calm wich has been the key for my daily routine. I’ve really learnt from my time as a babysitter the importance of stimulation for kids that’s one of my motivations to encourage kids to play outside, going for walks and just spend time in the nature . Another very important aspect is listening, I always try to be very attentive to the things children want to express or communicate . Communication is key between adults and I I’m an active person who enjoys playing volleyball, exploring the outdoors and discovering the little wonders of the world, I love animals and am happy to include them in the activities. I’m available during evenings, nights, and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your schedule. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing, getting them ready for bed , or taking them out. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
“Paula was the best!! Helped our family out last minute she was very communicative and my 2 year old son absolutely loved her! Highly recommend, thanks Paula!”
Hello! My name is Neylin. I enjoy working with kids and love to see how they progress in their development and all that they are learning. I have an easygoing temperament and am always ready for any new opportunity. If you book me as your sitter you will find your kiddo and I enjoying activities outdoors, reading books, building forts or playing endless games of pretend and maybe even speaking a bit of Spanish!
Hi I'm Katie, I would consider myself to be a trustworthy sitter that you can depend on. Im a registered behavior technician (RBT) but I do not provide ABA services outside of a clinic, just able to babysit children with autism. I am also current CPR/1st aid certified. I love animals and have a few of my own. I am willing to provide light housekeeping, laundry, prep made meals, cook, and provide transportation.
“Very engaging with our 3.5 year old.”
Hi families, my name is Ana, I’m a teacher and I have over 4 years of childcare experience with newborns, toddlers, and kids of all ages (including up to 3 at once). I'm CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and have my own reliable transportation with a Colorado driver's license. I love creating fun, educational activities, whether that's outdoor play, board games, or everyday learning moments. I also help with meal prep, bedtime routines, tidying play areas, and supporting kids' developmental milestones. Families describe me as patient, caring, responsible, and trustworthy. I speak English and Portuguese (and understand Spanish), and I'm comfortable with pets. Open communication with parents is very important to me, and I'll always keep you updated. I'm currently available weekday evenings and anytime on weekends. I'd love to connect with your family!
Hello, I am Cyn. I am 35 years young, originally from South Florida. I relocated to Denver in January 2017 and I absolutely love it here. *Fluent in Spanish* Friends would say I am an adventurous, passionate, hilarious soul. I love music, food, animals, nature, and kids! I began working with children and families in 2009. In Florida, I worked as a youth program director at the YMCA, an assistant teacher, and a long term (8yrs) nanny for 2 families. Since moving to Denver, I have had the pleasure of working with over 100 families. I enjoy the outdoors and creative outlets the most. I paint, play, do crafts, read, and love to implement those activities into daily life. I consider myself a role model for kids, and have been told by peers and employers alike that I have a dynamic personality. I have my own reliable 4x4 transportation, with a squeaky clean driving record.
“Super communicative and helpful! She allowed me to be so at ease while traveling as I knew my pets were in such good hands ”
