Hi there! My name is Marina and I am looking for occasional babysitting jobs for a little extra cash! Originally from California, I recently moved to Denver to be closer to family and to work in the field I am passionate about, forensic psychology. My other interests include reading good books, hiking in rainy weather, and trying new restaurants! I have been babysitting for about 15 years now, having started in junior high school babysitting for family members and friends. I have experience caring for toddlers, elementary school-aged children and adolescents. I am punctual, respectful and responsible, and I assure you that if I am babysitting for you, your child is in great hands! I like to have fun and be silly, while also setting limits and ensuring your child's safety. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I am available weeknights and weekends, especially in the evening. Thank you!

Hii! I’m Jasmine. I’m 28 years old and some would call me the child whisperer. I worked for preschools with all ages from 2[removed] and babysat in my time off as well. From 2020-2024 I was a registered behavioral therapist working with kids that range from 2-10 years old. I have now split time as a middle school special education paraprofessional between APS & LPS since 2024. Kids have been my passion since high school, they give me such a spark that I never get tired of. While my main focus is child care I don’t mind a few pet favors here and there, I love dogs! I also don’t mind a little cleaning around the house. I mostly do this because I believe all parents deserve a fun night out! Enough of the chit chat though, hit me up anytime if you would like to get to know me better and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hello! My name is Grace, I just recently graduated from Colorado State University and am currently pursuing an education to get my Esthetician license. I am looking for some extra work, and what better way to spend my time doing something I love! I have been surrounded by children my whole life, and have been babysitting since I was just 15 years old. From neighbors to family members, and family friends I have watched children ranging from all ages. I am very reliable and have a safe vehicle if driving is needed. I hope to meet you and start helping you enjoy the little moments without having to worry about the kiddos being taken care of!

Grace showed up early, and ready to work! She cleaned our airbnb and had great attention to detail. We are hiring her again and highly recommend her.

I am nineteen years old, looking for new experiences. I am a funny, sweet, opening, kind human. The main reason why I want to start helping with kids is because I wanna be part of helping a new generation grow. I've had a lot of experiences that no others should live through, so if I have a chance to help with other I would love to. I have been babysitting for over five years. First starting with my sisters kids and then going to other families. I have experience with kids from ages newborn to twelve year olds, I worked with kids with adhd, autism, anger issues and kids with trauma. I have CPR certifications and first aid training.

She did a great job with the kids. Fed them dinner and put them to bed smoothly. I’ll definitely be booking her again.

"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!"
