Hi there! 👋🏻 I’m a Registered Nurse and have over a decade of hands-on nanny experience, currently available for occasional babysitting. With my background in nursing and psychology, I provide attentive, safety-focused care while creating engaging, developmentally appropriate activities - all while having fun! 😊 I graduated in 2017 from the University of Vermont with a BA in Psychology and minor in Nutrition and most recently in 2025 with a BS in Nursing. I’ve worked clinical and non-clinical roles with children including roles as a Wellness Coach, live in au-pair, and counselor.
“Marley was wonderful. She connected with our 4-year-old right away - which is no small feat, as she can be a bit slow to warm up to new faces. Marley was punctual, helpful around the house, and just genuinely lovely to have around. We would absolutely welcome her back anytime.”
Hi - my name is Kadi. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I am primarily looking for a full time childcare position at this time though! I enjoy being a nanny/babysitter. I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since high school. My responsibilities have included transporting children to and from activities, preparing meals and snacks, crafts, and tidying up the home. I am also available to work as a household assistant. I can complete food prep, clean, and run errands. I have a large family so I have always been surrounded by children and have been assisting my family members with childcare since I was young, but especially during the pandemic. I enjoy animals, but have the most experience caring for dogs and cats. I am happy to work with families who have either or both dogs and cats. I am open to other animals, but I have limited experience outside dogs and cats. Due to personal family matters after my last nannying job, I had to take some time off to focus on said personal matters. I am now looking forward to entering back into the childcare world, and I am looking forward to hearing from you to discuss my experience! Thank you!
Hello everyone! My name is Kelli. I am an infant-toddler specialist/childcare professional with extensive childcare training. -I am a full-time licensed home daycare provider/owner, specializing in infant-toddler care. :) This is my job 40+ hours per week. -I am currently looking for weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) babysitting jobs at the moment. -I am infant, child & adult CPR, AED, and Basic First Aid Certified. -I am lead infant teacher and lead toddler teacher qualified & have done both, working in two different early childhood learning centers (besides my own). -I also have my Bachelor's Degree from the University of Denver (graduated in June 2024). I'd describe my personality as patient, calm, and kind. I like working with kids because I love seeing them learn (& they teach me so many things too!). One thing you should know about me is I am a gentle and sensitive person, which is why I work well with children.
“Kelli was very thorough and asked questions to better understand our schedule and our kids’ needs. She is very sweet and our kids loved her! ”
Hi! My name is Dalia, and I’m excited to meet you! I just moved to Boulder from LA to get my Master’s in Speech Language Pathology at CU. I’ve been working with kids since I was 16 years old, and I studied child policy in college. I have been babysitting for 10+ years, and I have experience with a range of ages, including under 1 year-olds. At this point, I’ve worked with over 20 different families, and I’ve developed great relationships with many of them and their children :) 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!
Hi, my name is Elena and I am a student at CU Boulder. I have reliable transportation and several years of childcare experience as well as that being my primary job for 2 years. I am most comfortable with elementary school age children but am open to other ages. I currently work part time and am looking for some side gigs. I am also very comfortable with pet care, have had cats and dogs my whole life and am always happy to help with housework and cleaning.

"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."
Theresa M., parent
