Julia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Julia! I recently moved here from Huntington Beach after graduating from Cal State Long Beach. I have a degree in Sociology and Religious Studies! I also completed a teaching credential program for special education. My family lives in Colorado, and I am so happy to be close with them again!! I have been a babysitter since I was 12, and continued to do so during school! I have experience with all ages. Most of my jobs have included drop offs & pickups, as well as taking kiddos on adventures or simply staying home & hanging out! I am also experienced in helping out around the household with whatever is needed (cooking, cleaning, running errands, etc) I am currently involved with a nonprofit organization for at risk youth in the springs, and am looking for employment that brings some more flexibility and light into my life, and working with kids and families has always done the trick for me!

Hi there, I’m Logan! I’m 22 years old and I’ve been an aunt for 12 years now. I often babysit my nieces and nephews (usually three at once, ages 6, 9 and 12). In my free time I enjoy crafting, reading, playing video games and watching movies. I love to cook, get outside and learn as much as I can. I get along well with most kiddos (and furry friends) and we always have so much fun! I have a Shih Tzu named Neville and a Sphynx cat named Calcifer! Aside from childcare, I have worked in ski shops/winter sports every year since I was 14. I am a scientifically passionate student at UCCS, am currently enrolled in the Biology program full time and I currently hold my Associate of Science degree from PPSC. I can’t wait to meet your littles!

Hi families! I’m Natty from Thailand. When I lived in Thailand I was teacher assistant almost 2 years at bilingual school and English institute. And I have first aids certificate. Currently working in the U.S. with over 1 year of childcare experience. I’ve taken care of children from infants to school-age and have experience supervising multiple kids at once. I’m warm, creative, and always make sure the children feel safe and happy while learning through play. I’d be happy to bring that same care and energy to your family!

“Natty did a fantastic job with my daughter! She was so friendly and my daughter loved her. I left with a happy kid and returned with a happy kid! Absolutely recommend! ”

Audrey $17 per hour for 1 child

I come from a household that has 2 younger siblings. My sister is 7 years old and my brother is 4. My qualifications would be that I have never professionally babysat but I have been taking care of my siblings since my sister was born. I have a lot of experience with children who are not my siblings as well. I am very patient and understanding. I have experience in household upkeep such as cleaning, cooking, and anything that would be considered as upkeep. I love working with kids because it allows me to see how different every child is.

"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!"
