Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible babysitter with experience caring for children of all ages. I’m patient, creative, and love engaging kids through learning games, art, and outdoor play.

Families describe me as dependable, nurturing, and someone their kids feel comfortable with right away. I look forward to helping your family feel at ease knowing your little ones are in good hands!
“Very attentive and professional. Great sitter, especially for children with special needs. Would definitely book again! ”
Hi! My name is Ally 😊 I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a degree in Psychology, and I bring over a year and a half of full-time experience as an Assistant Daycare Teacher. That role strengthened my skills in child development, behavior guidance, structured learning, and creating safe, engaging environments for children of all ages. Prior to that, I worked as a tutor, babysitter, and provided private youth soccer training, giving me a well-rounded background in both academic and active enrichment. I currently hold a Level 3 Early Childhood Professional Credential and am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED. Safety is always my top priority, but I also love creating fun, educational, and fulfilling experiences that help kids feel confident and supported. Outside of childcare, I love staying active, being outdoors, and being around family and friends. I am also currently pursuing my certification in personal training, nutrition, and women's health and fitness! I look forward to connecting with families and becoming someone your children feel excited to see!

I’m also very crafty, speak Spanish, and could help with any pets as well as some homework help!

“Kay is amazing with our 9 month old boy and 4 year old girl. She is knowledgeable about everything baby related including baby led weaning, sleep training and developmental milestones. We trust her wholeheartedly with our kids. She is always on the floor with our baby helping him with his development, reading him books, singing to him, etc. She is always on the go, walking him to the park and proactively organizing play dates with other babies his age. She is very respectful of our home, keeping play and kitchen areas tidy. We highly recommend Kay and think any family would be lucky to have her care for their kids.”
