Booked by 56 families in Louisville, CO

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.”

Booked by 15 families in Louisville, CO

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!

"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!"
