I was born and raised in Jacksonville Florida and recently made the big move to Denver! I've worked at daycares, learning centers, elementary schools and at family homes as a nanny through college, so I am well versed in taking care of children in different platforms/ for different needs. I'm trained in pediatric first aid and CPR certified. I also have taken and completed courses in child development and nutrition. I'm so excited to meet your kiddos! I think I’d be a great fit for you and your family. Prices are not set in stone and I’m willing to change and talk through them with you. Please call or text me at [removed] or email me at [removed] or the email given with the account.Thank you so much for the opportunity and I hope to see you soon.

Hi! I’m Raquel 😊 I’m studying Psychology with a focus on child development, and I’ve been caring for kids for over 14 years — from newborns to school-age children, including twins! Families describe me as patient, loving, and reliable. I truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe while having fun. Whether it’s reading stories, doing crafts, or exploring outdoors, I always aim to create an encouraging and positive environment. I’m bilingual (English/Spanish), CPR-certified, and currently work part-time with a baby — I’m now looking to fill the rest of my week with another great family. I would love to bring my experience, warmth, and creativity into your home!

"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."
