Hi families! I’m available for babysitting from June 1–19 and would love to support your family during this time. I’m currently a preschool educator in the Cherry Creek School District and previously worked at Primrose Daycare, with over 7 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. I’ve worked as a nanny (including nanny share) and have strong experience with children ages 0–4. I’m responsible, patient, and caring, with great communication skills. I can help with driving to activities, preparing light healthy meals, and engaging kids in creative activities like arts & crafts. References available upon request. Feel free to message me if you think I’d be a good fit for your family!

Hi! My name is Isa and I am currently graduated from Mines. I have grown up with a passion for kids and animals coming from a big family in the Philippines, where I usually end up babysitting the younger kids. I do have experience with dog sitting in the area :). I am CPR certified through the red cross and have my own car!

Hey there! 👋 I'm Indigo. I've been caring for children of all ages & a variety of pets for over 15 years and I absolutely love it! 😻 Children are so incredible and it brings me so much joy to be around them. I also feel very connected to animals and nature. 🌈👶👦🏿👧🏽💙🌿 I am super silly, playful & fun-loving and have a creative imagination that helps me play along with kids easily. Children tend to love me & my enthusiastic, playful and friendly presence. At the same time, I'm a very organized and responsible caregiver. I understand the importance of consistency & routine in children's development, and it's important to me to stick to the guidelines & rules provided by you, the parent(s). I'm a former environmental engineer who now works for herself as a graphic designer for health, wellness & eco-friendly brands, so I have inherent skills on both sides of the coin. 🌼🌛🪄💫🎨 With me, you can trust that your little loved ones will be under safe, attentive and loving care while also having a lot of fun!

We feel very fortunate to have found Indigo for a recurring date night for our young children. Our kids love how kind and artistic she is, and we parents love how responsible and communicative she is. Look no further -- book her ASAP!

"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!"
