Megan $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Megan! I graduated from CU Denver in 2021 and I love playing with kids! I have always loved spending time with kids of all ages and happily began babysitting at a young age. I also spent many hours volunteering with children at my church. Since those early years, I have been the occasional babysitter, the long-term nanny, and worked in childcare at a business. I'm looking to find a new nanny position as the children I have been caring for most recently are aging out of needing my help. I am very child-led when it comes to play and exploration, giving little ones a chance to control a bit of their world and dictate the things that interest them the most. But I also do my best to set a structure and routine to the day, with expectations for what will be occurring at different times, to give the children a sense of stability. One of my favorite things to do with kids is play pretend. I love helping them learn about their world and help them explore and use their imaginations. I can help with some small chores like fixing meals for kids, dishes, and some laundry but I prefer to mainly do childcare. I'm very comfortable with pets but I am mildly allergic to fur.

Marissah $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a naturally organized, detail‑driven person stepping into professional house cleaning and household management after years in roles that required precision, planning, and keeping a million moving parts running smoothly. From managing schedules, coordinating logistics, and maintaining detailed systems in my past work, I’ve built the exact skills that translate into running a home with structure, care, and consistency. I’m someone who genuinely loves a clean, peaceful space. Organizing, decluttering, and creating order is my happy place! I keep my own home spotless, and I’m excited to bring that same energy into helping others. Whether it’s cleaning, tidying, laundry, errands, organizing, or general household coordination, I show up with reliability, warmth, and pride in my work. My goal is simple: make your home feel lighter, calmer, and easier to live in.

Booked by 2 families in Henderson, CO

I am a certified elementary school teacher, and a certified preschool lead teacher/director. I've taught in public school, private school, and homeschool (co-ops and my own children)! I've lived in Denver my whole life and know the city very well. I am a mother of 6 and live in Central Denver. I am creative, fun, reliable, responsible, and not easily fazed! I love children and understand the dynamics of a busy household and unexpected needs that might come up.

“Sara was AMAZING with our kiddos! My three year old daughter really struggles to go to bed and she got her down without too many tears. She was so kind to my six year old son who’s pretty sensitive too. She even brought her favorite kids book with her to share! Will definitely keep her in rotation for our date nights. 🥰”

Ariana $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Ari! I'm a patient, thoughtful, and dependable caregiver who is passionate about creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can grow and thrive. I am currently pursuing my Master's in Social Work with my bachelor's in Psychology. I also work part-time at a memory care facility, where I've spent the past year supporting vulnerable elderly with compassion, patience, and attention to their individual needs. I have more than five years of childcare experience caring for children from 2 months old through the preteen years, and I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I believe in meeting each child where they are developmentally while encouraging kindness, curiosity, confidence, and emotional growth through positive interactions and engaging activities. Safety is always my top priority, and I deeply value respecting each family's routines, parenting preferences, and expectations. I believe that honest, open communication builds trust and helps create the best experience for both parents and children. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that gives parents peace of mind while creating a fun, supportive environment where children feel valued and encouraged.

"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!"
