Juliana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Julie! I am a US Army Veteran. Throughout life I have taken a strong calling regarding working with children. I currently live in Fountain, CO. The military brought us out here and it’s a lovely state. I’m originally from Chicago and I try to visit family as much as I can. My favorite thing about working with kids is seeing their development throughout the stages of infancy into toddler development. I believe in creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment for all the kiddos I have the pleasure of meeting! I am more than willing to answer any and all questions that you may have! I hope we are a great match and have the opportunity to support your child’s success.

Booked by 1 family in Fountain, CO

I am a 27 year old nurse, colorado native. I work full time in the ICU but I am looking for a little side gig that’s lower stress where I can take care of children or pets. I have been a nurse for 2 years and I was a CNA for 6 years working primarily with geriatric population. However, when I was 19-20 I did work with young children in a Head Start job. I also have experience caring for children within my family ages new born-5 years old.

“Ariana was a awesome sitter. I needed a sitter very last minute and she was able to help out. She was amazing with my 2 month old daughter. My daughter loved her!! I would recommend her 1,000 times over and will definitely hire her again when I need a sitter. ☺️ ”

I love animals and care about their comfort and feelings. I have sat for dogs, cats, chickens, and indoor birds. I'm very attentive to medical needs, appreciate clear instructions, and keep pets out of harm's way.

"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!"
