“We have hired Jenny several times now and each time she is responsive, reliable, eager to learn about our kids (ages 8 & 9), and find ways to connect with them. She is easy going, willing to meet the needs we express or go with the flow when we don't have much specific instructions. We feel at ease when we are away and our boys are really enjoying getting to know her and they really appreciate having someone play the active stuff they like to do.”
Mother of two successful female college graduates looking for extra income in my off season. I work as a self employed Landscape Architect and have flexible time throughout the season. I realize I miss having kiddos around and love to spend time, teach, cook, play with them. I taught cooking school for kids so that’s an activity I have lots of experience with! I love pets too and happy to take both human and fur babies on urban adventures.
Hi - My name is Christina and I recently moved to Colorado with my husband. I am offering child care, pet care, and some household services. I love being a babysitter and have watched/worked with toddlers and children over the past few years. I've babysat for families with children ages three to five, and have worked as a tutor and teaching assistant for elementary and middle school teachers. My responsibilities have included tutoring, dinner and bed time routine, and general childcare. I do have a car and am able to drop off and pick up children to and from school/activities. I'm also willing to help with household services like light cleaning and pickup, laundry, etc... I am happy to work with families with cats or dogs. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Hi there! I’m Miracle, a 24-year-old babysitter with a real passion for child development and care. I’ve worked with kids of all ages and genuinely enjoy creating fun and nurturing environments for them to thrive. I focus on making sure each child feels supported and engaged, whether we’re playing, learning, or just hanging out. If you’re looking for someone who’s both reliable and enthusiastic about caring for your little ones, I’d love to chat and see how I can help. I’m currently working with a family weekly, but am available for things like date nights, errand runs, or just a break for you to do with as you please!

"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!"
