Gabriela $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Gabriela, and I’ve been working with children for over 9 years. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I currently care for twin boys whom I’ve been with since they were 7 months old, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch them grow and reach new milestones. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where children feel happy, supported, and encouraged to learn. I enjoy reading books, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, educational activities, and helping with homework. I’m patient, dependable, organized, and committed to following each family’s routines and parenting style. I’m also happy to prepare healthy meals and snacks, help with children’s laundry, keep play areas tidy, and assist with light household tasks related to the children. My goal is to give parents peace of mind by providing dependable, loving, and attentive care. I look forward to building lasting relationships with families and helping children learn, grow, and have fun every day.

Denisse $35 per hour for 1 child

I am a warm, caring, and dependable nanny with over five years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they feel supported, understood, and encouraged to grow. I consider myself responsible, patient, organized, intuitive, and kind. While many people can watch children, I believe that building a genuine connection with them is what truly makes a difference. I focus on forming strong bonds based on trust, respect, and communication, and I always strive to make children feel comfortable and valued. I am attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality, and I take pride in being someone families can rely on. I love helping children learn, explore, and develop through play, creativity, and daily routines. My goal is always to support both children and parents by providing consistent, thoughtful, and high-quality care.

Bella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bella and I am a first grade teacher in Pacific Heights. I offer babysitting, tutoring, and pet sitting. I love working with and caring for children of all ages! I started babysitting and nannying in 2015 and have lots of experience with infants, toddlers, and young children. My responsibilities while babysitting have included driving children to and from school and activities, preparing easy meals, helping children with homework and reading, tidying up, and planning fun activities. I am CPR and epinephrine-injection certified, and hold a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and special education. I also earned dual-teaching licenses from Regis University in Denver, CO. I have done both full-time and part-time nannying, and I’m currently available anytime after 4 pm Monday-Friday and all day/night on weekends. I am looking for something part-time (1-3 shifts per week). Unfortunately, I do not have a car, and would prefer to not have to drive. Please let me know if you’re interested if you have any questions about me! Thanks so much! 😊
