"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

I believe babysitting shouldn't just be a job, but also a chance to play and grow. Between my time as a camp counselor, horseback riding instructor, and park ranger, I have approximately 3 years of aggregate experience caring for children of all ages. I'm EMR, CPR, and first aid certified and can take on a variety of tasks, including household chores, cooking, and helping with homework. I love arts and crafts and believe they are a great way to express yourself and keep the mind busy and away from electronics. Even as an adult, I still enjoy crafting in my free time and will gladly bring along any crafting supplies needed. I have my own vehicle and driver's license along with a spotless driving record. I'm able and happy to provide transportation as needed. I love animals of all kinds and have professional experience caring for them as well. I live on a humble 3-acre farm out in Strasburg, Colorado, and am willing to drive up to 50 minutes to a requested location. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can provide the care you're looking for.

Hello! My name is Julia, and I am a licensed educator with a Master's degree in Education who is passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive. Over the past several years, I have worked as a nanny, an infant classroom teacher, and a middle school English teacher, giving me experience supporting children from infancy through adolescence. I believe children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore the world around them. I enjoy spending time outdoors, reading stories, singing songs, creating sensory activities, and following each child's interests while supporting their developmental milestones. I value consistency, patience, and open communication with parents, and I strive to create a calm, nurturing environment where children can build confidence and independence. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, am comfortable with pets, and am looking for a long-term position with a family where I can build a meaningful relationship and become a trusted, dependable part of your child's life.
