Hi Parents! I’m Miriam and I have been working with children for 10 years professionally but 12 years overall. I have experience with children of all ages, twins and triplets, and have been in 6+ nanny shares. I’ve worked as a Career Nanny, Family Assistant and House Manager. I’m comfortable working in a team with Parents, Co-Nannies or other Staff. I’m vetted with various agencies in CO and TX. I’m currently working as a Newborn Care Specialist (NCS) specializing in multiples and also a trained Postpartum Doula training. I have various certifications including CPR/First Aid, Working with Multiples, Parenting Safe Children, and Respectful Childcare for Newborns, Infants and Toddlers. I take pride in having an extensive variety of knowledge relevant to my career which leads me to travel for child developmental trainings across the United States. I am happy to answer any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
“Miriam was quick to make friends with my 11 month old who has pretty bad stranger danger. She was happy and bubbly and very talkative with Remi which is exactly what babies need. Very comfortable with babies. She was able to get a big bottle in my very distracted difficult eater and a good baby food feeding as well. They played outside and went for a walk. Before leaving she washed all the bottles and wiped down the counters and cleaned up the toys; a rarity with sitters these days. ”
I believe babysitting shouldn't just be a job, but also a chance to play and grow. Between my time as a camp counselor, horseback riding instructor, and park ranger, I have approximately 3 years of aggregate experience caring for children of all ages. I'm EMR, CPR, and first aid certified and can take on a variety of tasks, including household chores, cooking, and helping with homework. I love arts and crafts and believe they are a great way to express yourself and keep the mind busy and away from electronics. Even as an adult, I still enjoy crafting in my free time and will gladly bring along any crafting supplies needed. I have my own vehicle and driver's license along with a spotless driving record. I'm able and happy to provide transportation as needed. I love animals of all kinds and have professional experience caring for them as well. I live on a humble 3-acre farm out in Strasburg, Colorado, and am willing to drive up to 50 minutes to a requested location. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can provide the care you're looking for.
Hello! I'm Camilla, and believe it or not, I started babysitting when I was 10 years old for a family with 3 children, at the now-unheard-of rate of 50 cents an hour! I'm a LOT older now, and moved back to Colorado in 2010 after spending 25 years in NYC working in children's publishing. I'm not a parent myself, but am young-at-heart, fun, funny, and caring. I am a devoted aunt to a niece and nephew in Amherst, MA, and my friends' kids all love me and think I'm one of them. I'm a responsible, mature adult with a long career history in children's books. I love reading aloud to children of any age, and am comfortable with kids from newborns to teenagers. The safety and happiness of your offspring are my top priority. In my free time I enjoy cooking and baking, trying new restaurants, traveling, pop culture, and All Things Apple. During the pandemic I worked with just two long-term families, where everyone was super-cautious, and I am fully up-to-date with all COVID vaccinations and boosters. I do require that any families I work with going forward are also vaccinated and boosted, and I prefer not to work with families who choose not to vaccinate their children. I routinely work with infants, and my priority is keeping them safe. You can trust me in your home and with your family because in addition to a background check through UrbanSitter, I have a SafetyPIN. SafetyPIN does a broader background check and a behavioral screening. My SafetyPIN is BUV1P8EK, and you can learn more and verify it at getasafetypin.com/verify. *IMPORTANT NOTE* Because my time is in high demand, I don’t accept babysitting jobs for weekends (Friday through Sunday) from new clients without a one-hour in-person interview, for which my standard hourly rate based on the number of children applies. This is to make sure that I am a good fit for your family, and to lessen the chance of last-minute cancellations. I will happily waive the interview requirement for non-peak-time bookings, though I do prefer to at least speak by phone before accepting new clients. Thanks for reading, and I hope you'll give my services a try!
“Flexible with scheduling and great care!”
Hi, My Name is Aminata Aalyah and I am a student at University of Colorado Boulder studying medicine. I am offering childcare, petcare, and household services. I have been babysitting kids for over five years and I absolutely love it; it’s even inspired me to become a Pediatrician. I have been CPR, Stop the Bleed, and BLS certified 3 times. I am also a licensed phlebotomist. My previous responsibilities when booked have included running errands, cooking, driving, and tutoring. I am comfortable caring for families with dogs, cats, etc.
“Our kids connected with Aminata immediately, which is HUGE! Highly recommend!!!!!”

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
