I am a 20 yr old gal freshly moved back to the area. I’ve lived in Colorado for about 10 years and am moving back after living in South Dakota for a few years! It feels good to be back and I am looking for work. I have a passion for caregiving of all kinds. So, I offer childcare services, pet sitting, house sitting (plant sitting) and basic chores/errands. Whatever is needed. have experience with kiddos ages 0-5 yrs. I worked at a daycare as a lead teacher for 3 years. Baking, science experiments, outdoor exploration and activities, as well as arts and crafts are my specialty. I can get down with whatever craft activities are being wanted done! If I am mixing child and animal care the price will increase slightly, so just ask if you have any questions:) I love animals of all kinds, cats dogs, farm animals and I have a little experience with reptiles as well. I can walk, play, cuddle and feed your pets however much needed. Sometimes they just need a buddy to hang with and I can do that! I also have experience in professional housekeeping keeping (used to clean out cabins and air bnbs) for a summer and a half, love cleaning very much! I’m very good at following instructions and getting done whatever is needed to the best of my ability. Willing to drive distance as well! I’m a bubbly/shy person who can meet the vibe just about anywhere, so if you’re chatty I will be right there with you, if you’re more low-key then that is totally fine as well. Just let me know!
I've grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for and looked after them ever since I can remember. I've pet sat many times before looking after both dogs and cats. I've always enjoyed looking after animals!
I am a certified Early Childhood Teacher for Infants and Toddlers. I am currently studying psychology with the intent to work with children. I am CPR and AED certified.

Hi Family! My name is Bailey and I come with an extensive amount of childcare experience with all ages. With over two decades of experience, one of my favorite things in life is to spend time with children and help them learn. My all time favorite role though is being an auntie to my 5 nieces and nephews. I went to college for Intercultural Studies and Elementary Education and have my teaching credential. I started babysitting at a very young age (10 years old to be exact- different times!) and gathered extensive and vast experience throughout the years including full-time nannying, teaching, sports camps, church nurseries, Special Olympics, summer programs, and a dip into baby consulting. The ages I have worked with span from newborn (out of the hospital) to 15 years old (basically just a glorified Uber driver for one family :) ). Since I have worked with so many age groups, I would love to work and watch any child of any age. I love to have fun, be silly, be creative and play with the children. At the same time, I have good discipline and patience for children when needed. I am very respectful of what the parents want for their children and how they parent them. Since I went to school for teaching, I have taken some child development classes and I love putting what I learned into practice! I was a competitive swimmer for 15 years year round and would love to take children swimming if that is something you wanted. I also have been CPR/First Aid certified countless times and was once lifeguard certified and trained. I have a car and would love to run any errands or take the children anywhere. I am very experienced with driving and am an extremely safe driver. I do not mind doing light housework or fixing the children meals, and also pets are not a problem for me. My hours are flexible as well. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank You, Bailey
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.

"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."
