Booked by 4 families in Aurora, CO

Hey there! πŸ‘‹ I'm Indigo. I've been caring for children of all ages & a variety of pets for over 15 years and I absolutely love it! 😻 Children are so incredible and it brings me so much joy to be around them. I also feel very connected to animals and nature. πŸŒˆπŸ‘ΆπŸ‘¦πŸΏπŸ‘§πŸ½πŸ’™πŸŒΏ I am super silly, playful & fun-loving and have a creative imagination that helps me play along with kids easily. Children tend to love me & my enthusiastic, playful and friendly presence. At the same time, I'm a very organized and responsible caregiver. I understand the importance of consistency & routine in children's development, and it's important to me to stick to the guidelines & rules provided by you, the parent(s). I'm a former environmental engineer who now works for herself as a graphic designer for health, wellness & eco-friendly brands, so I have inherent skills on both sides of the coin. πŸŒΌπŸŒ›πŸͺ„πŸ’«πŸŽ¨ With me, you can trust that your little loved ones will be under safe, attentive and loving care while also having a lot of fun!

β€œWe feel very fortunate to have found Indigo for a recurring date night for our young children. Our kids love how kind and artistic she is, and we parents love how responsible and communicative she is. Look no further -- book her ASAP!”

Avery 1 review
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Aurora, CO

I have been babysitting since I was ten years old! I grew up as the second oldest child with two younger siblings who I loved helping take care of. My mom has been doing in-home daycare since I was six, so I was always around kids and helping out where I could! I have nieces and a nephew, and find so much joy watching them learn and grow. I have formerly been CPR and first aide certified for adults, infants, and children - the certifications have expired, however I am happy to renew them upon request. My favorite part about being around kids is that I get to bring my inner kid out. I love being silly, playing games, singing songs, and reading stories.

β€œPrompt, communicative and our kiddo enjoyed having Avery here. We would have him watch our kiddo again! ”

Booked by 3 families in Aurora, CO

Hi! I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns to 13-year-olds. Currently I am providing full-time care for two wonderful children. Before coming to the U.S., I also gained childcare experience in Turkey, assisting families in my community. I have a degree in Industrial Engineering, but my passion for childcare has led me to focus on supporting families and helping children grow in a safe and nurturing environment. I enjoy engaging kids in interactive and educational activities, such as storytelling, creative games, and outdoor exploration. I am also happy to assist with homework, tutoring, meal preparation, and maintaining an enjoyable routine. In addition to childcare, I offer assistance with driving, making meals, homework assistance/tutoring, and house sitting. My skills include dance, cooking & baking, teaching foreign languages, volleyball, yoga, elementary-level tutoring, engineering, and swimming/pool safety. I am a responsible, energetic, and caring sitter who prioritizes children’s safety and happiness. I look forward to supporting families and providing the best care possible!

Kayla $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kayla and I'm currently a toddler teacher at a preschool. I work with young toddlers ages 1-2 and have over a year of experience doing so. I am looking forward to being able to work with smaller groups of children in order to provide the one on one care that they need. I like to take a conscious discipline approach to childcare and really value play based learning with lots of enriching activities. I also love animals and am happy to work for families with pets!
