Booked by 7 families in Castle Rock, CO

Hello, my name is Karen, I’m 27 years old and I’m from Argentina. Back in my country, I’m an Elementary School Teacher. I lived in California for almost 2 years, taking care of 4 girls, between 5 and 12 years old at that moment. Now, I take care of one 9 years old boy and an 8 years old girl. I have a lot of experience with kids and I enjoy not just taking care of them, but also getting involved and playing together. I’m also VERY organized and clean, so I love helping with household chores. Laundry, cleaning, folding, packing or unpacking, etc. are things that I’m good with. Any question, you can contact me and I will be happy to answer!

“Karen did amazing with my 8 year old! Definitely recommend :)”

Hey there! I'm Kendra, a outgoing and reliable babysitter with a lot of love for kids. I have several years of experience taking care of children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. Safety is my top priority, and I always make sure to create a nurturing and engaging environment for the little ones. In addition to my experience, I also hold an elementary education degree. This means that I have the knowledge and skills to support your child's learning and development while they're under my care. Whether it's helping with homework, reinforcing educational concepts, or engaging in educational activities, I'm here to provide a well-rounded experience for your child. I'm excited to bring my expertise and passion for education to the babysitting role. Let's have a fantastic babysitting adventure together! :)

Hailey $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Hailey, and I love working with kids and animals. I have two younger siblings who are 2 and 4 years old, and I’ve helped care for them and babysat them for as long as they’ve been alive. I’ve also babysat for other families over the years, which has given me experience with different ages, routines, and family styles. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with young children and daily routines like feeding, playtime, naps, and bedtime. I’m CPR certified through the American Red Cross and always put safety first. I also have experience doing light housework such as laundry, dishes, and dusting, and I’m happy to help keep things organized while I’m there. I’m dependable, kind, and patient, and I truly enjoy helping families feel at ease when they’re away.
