Hi there! I work as a case manager serving children and adults with disabilities. I have 15 years of experience working in various settings (nannying, healthcare, schools) with children ranging in age from infants to teens. I enjoy building rapport with children and supporting their development through play. I believe that children I care for see me as a fun, patient, supportive, trustworthy, and loving person. More about me: - I have 7 years of experience working with children with intellectual and developmental disabilities - I am a certified child life specialist, certified nursing assistant and certified behavioral technician - I have experience with medication administration and G-tube feedings - I earned my bachelor's degree in social work and master's degree in child life - I have basic skills in speaking spanish and ASL - Some of my favorite activities with children are doing arts and crafts, playing games, and spending time outside
Hello! I'm a 35 year old that is very active and creative. I've been babysitting, nannying, dogsitting, and housesitting for over 20 years. After college in 2013, I was an Au Pair in Madrid, Spain. I've worked with children of all ages from 2 months to 15 years of age and have watched over 200 children. These jobs have included homework help, driving to activities, cleaning, park visits, crafts, diaper changes, giving medication, cooking, feeding, bathtime, bedtime, etc…you name it, I've done it! I have also done many overnight stays while parents are away. I enjoy babysitting because children are always learning and imagining, and I love to be a part of their growing process! I love to be outdoors, read, do yoga, hike, ski, explore, be with friends, travel, bake, write, and try new things!

Hello! My name is Grace, I just recently graduated from Colorado State University and am currently pursuing an education to get my Esthetician license. I am looking for some extra work, and what better way to spend my time doing something I love! I have been surrounded by children my whole life, and have been babysitting since I was just 15 years old. From neighbors to family members, and family friends I have watched children ranging from all ages. I am very reliable and have a safe vehicle if driving is needed. I hope to meet you and start helping you enjoy the little moments without having to worry about the kiddos being taken care of!
“Grace showed up early, and ready to work! She cleaned our airbnb and had great attention to detail. We are hiring her again and highly recommend her. ”

"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!"
