Hi There, I'm Kristy! I am working from home at the moment so have more flexibility in babysitting jobs I can take... I’m in the top 1% of local caregivers via Care. com and have a lot of sitting experience, starting with two younger brothers. I was a nanny and a substitute teacher in college. Due to how complicated and confusing it can be for the little ones, I prefer to not sit for a parent(s) who would be working at home while I’m there. I am creative, imaginative, fun, interactive and love to make kids laugh! I respect your time, family and home, I am clean, caring and considerate. I have been on UrbanSitter and Care. com for over 6 years. I really enjoy being around kids in general and love the things they say and do. CPR Certified and Clear Motor Vehicle and Background Check. Bachelors in Marketing and have had the same job for over 18 years. I have been in Colorado for over 24 years and am from Illinois/Wisconsin. I had a golden retriever for over 10 years, who I lost late 2017 - so I am comfortable and enjoy being around dogs/animals as well... Thank you for your interest! Kristy

Myjena $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Yani, I am 22 years old, I live near Denver CO, and I am currently in my second semester of Nursing School! I love love love all children and animals and am even considering Obstetrics or Peds for my nursing specialty! I currently do home caregiving and have 1 client who I help bathe, dress, feed, and care for. I have two girl nieces (5 & 8) who are my absolute best friends and when the time is right, I can’t wait to make a little league of my own! ✨ I am super flexible with my schedule (as long as college permits it of course) but I have all summer off and I am totally willing to try something new!

Lauren $19 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I am a mom to a 2.5-year-old. I am CPR and first aid certified. In addition to this, I've had many different experiences caring for children, ranging from being a nanny to teaching and working at youth organizations and schools. Experience: --I was a nanny for a 13- and 14-year-old the summer after college. --I worked at a home for children in Mexico for three years, where I cared for the children and helped with various education projects. --I taught reading and writing at an elementary school and was a Community School Director at a junior high. --I have a Master’s Degree in International Development and Education and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy. Beyond childcare, I also have experience caring for animals. At home, I take care of our two dogs as well as geese, ducks, and chickens. These responsibilities have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a routine—qualities that carry over into caregiving for children. I love caring for children and animals alike and have made it my life’s work to nurture, teach, and support others!
