Hi! My name is Julie and I live in Boulder County. I spent six months working as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at The Learning Experience in Westminster, and am CPR-certified. I have experience working with children from 6 weeks to 12 years old. In June 2024, I graduated from a performing arts school in New York City. Each time I provided childcare, my ultimate goal is to meet each kid where they are at. I believe structure, compassion, and a nurturing environment are key. When I'm not caring for children, I am in the studio training and auditioning for dance productions and modeling jobs. My favorite style of dance is ballet! Thank you for considering me as your new babysitter. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
“We used Julie twice during our Boulder visit and I can't recommend her enough! She was excellent with our 8 year olds and they are already asking when they can see her next. Very professional, friendly and fun! So glad we found her.”
I have CPR training, and lifeguard training. I have baby-sat and house-sat for friends and family multiple times for the passed 4 years. I am very organized, responsible, and trustworthy.
Hi! I'm currently a college student who recently stepped away from full-time work to focus on education, and I'm excited to find part-time work doing something meaningful—helping care for kids and pets. While I’m new to professional childcare, I’ve spent lots of time around babies and toddlers in my circle of family and friends, and I genuinely love being part of their world as they learn and grow. I’m especially close with my teenage cousin I’ve known since he was an infant. I'm also super comfortable helping out in a busy household! I'm used to managing the chaos that comes with two energetic Siberian huskies, so I'm no stranger to keeping things calm, organized, and running smoothly. I'm responsible, patient, and happy to lend a hand wherever needed. If you’re looking for someone responsible, patient, and truly invested in your child’s and or pet’s wellbeing, I’d love to connect!
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!”
Hello my name is Tavia, when I was 15 years old my mom had my baby brother Julian. I helped raised my brother from birth, I babysit while my parents have date night, work events, go out of town, and occasionally overnight. As a kid growing up I'd also help my cousins with their children. I feel very comfortable around children and babies. I also worked as a caregiver.
All UrbanSitter babysitters are background checked every year. Profiles are individually reviewed by our Trust and Safety team.
"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."
