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 there, My name is Karsyn and I look forward to connecting with you! Months ago I quit my tech job to start a small business and while it's been lovely, my husband and I decided we need more cash coming in while I build it out. I have years of babysitting experience, with a full year using this app in the past so you can check out my reviews! I am 33, very professional, mature and willing to go the extra mile to ensure you feel like your child is in good hands. I enjoy children very much and after realizing I needed a part-time job, I decided this was the route I was most excited about! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. Talk soon!

Karsyn is awesome!

Booked by 15 families in Idaho Springs, CO

Hi! My name is Dalia, and I’m excited to meet you! I just moved to Boulder from LA, and I’m looking to meet new families, and I’m happy to provide references. I’ve been working with kids since I was 16 years old, and I studied child policy in college. In DC, I was a nanny for a 5-year old with special needs, as well as a babysitter for ~10 different families, with kids of all ages. Last summer, I was an arts and crafts counselor for kids of all ages. I’ve spent the last 2 years working in an elementary school, and I have been working consistently with a couple families over the last few years, and now I’m looking to work with new ones! I have been babysitting for 10+ years, and I have experience with a range of ages, including under 1 year-olds. I’m happy to help with schoolwork, and I love arts and crafts. For older kids, I love to bake treats with them, and I’m happy to cook for your family or your kids! I know CPR, some Spanish, and am fluent in American Sign Language. I have a cat and have lived with a dog, so I’m comfortable around pets, and happy to take care of them as well!
