I am a mom and a therapist looking to support other young families in finding moments of self care and connection. I have a flexible work schedule and am open to screening calls and meet and greets!
“Emily is amazing! ”
I live in an apartment downtown with a cat and dog. Willing to pet sit most dogs as long as they get along with my current pets. Can only handle three dogs total including my dog.
“Great dog sitter”
Hi! I’m Raquel 😊 I’m studying Psychology with a focus on child development, and I’ve been caring for kids for over 14 years — from newborns to school-age children, including twins! Families describe me as patient, loving, and reliable. I truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe while having fun. Whether it’s reading stories, doing crafts, or exploring outdoors, I always aim to create an encouraging and positive environment. I’m bilingual (English/Spanish), CPR-certified, and currently work part-time with a baby — I’m now looking to fill the rest of my week with another great family. I would love to bring my experience, warmth, and creativity into your home!
Hello! My name is Dartanion, but you can call me Doc. I’m 22 years old and offer professional child care, pet care, and house sitting services. I have 2–3 years of experience in Early Childhood Education (ECE) and come from a large family as the oldest of seven siblings — which has given me years of hands-on experience in caring for children of all ages and managing busy households. I’m known for being dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. Whether I’m engaging children in creative learning activities, ensuring pets are well cared for and comfortable, or keeping a home organized and secure, I approach every task with professionalism and care. Families can count on me to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment while maintaining clear communication and reliability. I truly enjoy helping families feel confident and at ease while they’re away
“Mr. Doc is amazing with kids. Relatable, on-time, and took great care of my two toddlers. We can’t wait to have him back in the future! ”
Hi, I'm Leah! I am originally from New Jersey, but have lived all over, and am now currently a Kindergarten teacher here in the Denver area. I hold my masters of elementary education and have loved being able to take my passion for working with children and make a career out of it. I have over 10 years of babysitting and nannying experience, working with ages ~6 months to 13 years old. Most of my experience is with 4-6 year olds, but I am comfortable with all ages! I'm an active person who loves the outdoors and can easily keep up with young kids on the move. As someone who teaches young children, I don’t mind getting messy, cleaning up, and turning everyday moments into fun, engaging learning experiences through play and exploration!
“Leah was a long term sitter for my boys when they were 4/5 and 6/7 years old before her move, and she was fantastic! My son is type 1 diabetic and Leah was so attentive with his medical needs. I never felt worried when they were with her. She was a fun and engaging babysitter and always followed our routine. We miss her and would love to use her again if she’s back in AZ!”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
