Hi! My name is Katie and I am looking for a 6 week summer nanny job in Boulder, CO (June 2-July 15). I currently attend CU Boulder and I will be a junior in the fall. I have two younger sisters, volunteered at Footsteps Childcare Center throughout my high school career, and was a full time nanny last summer. I can provide transportation if needed, help with light housework, and feel comfortable cooking. I know summer time can be stressful for working parents, so hopefully I can take some of that stress off your hands! Available to house sit, dog sit, or watch the kids for date night as well.
Hi there! I was a stay at home mom for 15 years, and loved raising my 3 kids. They are grown now, and I’ve realized how much I miss being around children. I was also licensed with the state and ran an in home daycare for many years. I’m comfortable and experienced with all ages. I have dogs and absolutely adore them, and all other animals as well. I’m a Colorado native and love all of the nature this state has to offer. In the summer, you’ll find me paddle boarding or camping and hiking in the mountains. In colder weather, I love to cozy up by the fire with a good book. I’d love the opportunity to watch your little’s or pets. Please feel free to reach out!
“I’m happy to be the first to write a review for Holly. My son took to her right away, showing off all of his cars and trucks. They played, read tons of books and ventured outside to our neighborhood playgrounds. She made sure to cleanup the toys after they were finished which was much appreciated. We will definitely reach out to Holly for future sitting needs! ”
I am currently a college freshman and attending the University of Colorado Boulder, I am studying Integrative Physiology in hopes to go into the medical field or dental school. I am from a tiny town in south Colorado and have 2 sweet littles sisters and so many baby cousins and absolutely love kids and have tons of experience with babysitting, cleaning etc. I am very organized and keep everything very clean and I work super hard. I also live on a ranch so I have plenty of experience with every type of animal. I can be pretty flexible and I hope I can be a great asset to an amazing family.
Hi! My name is Marina after 8 fulfilling years as a nanny, I’ve had the privilege of caring for all age ranges. I have a dog and cat of my own and am happy to also provide care to the fur babies as well. From gentle cuddles to adventurous outdoor excursions, I’ve cherished every moment of nurturing young minds and hearts. I enjoy encouraging imagination and foster a gentle approach to nannying. Now, I’m excited to combine my passion for child care with advanced nursing skills as I pursue my FNP with a specialization in pediatrics. I would love to help out your family!

"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!"
