"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."

Christina $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi - My name is Christina and I recently moved to Colorado with my husband. I am offering child care, pet care, and some household services. I love being a babysitter and have watched/worked with toddlers and children over the past few years. I've babysat for families with children ages three to five, and have worked as a tutor and teaching assistant for elementary and middle school teachers. My responsibilities have included tutoring, dinner and bed time routine, and general childcare. I do have a car and am able to drop off and pick up children to and from school/activities. I'm also willing to help with household services like light cleaning and pickup, laundry, etc... I am happy to work with families with cats or dogs. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Hi my name is Debbie Wood, I would be interested in babysitting for you. I am retired and slightly handicapped but I would love to babysit.

I am a Christian and attend Flatirons Community Church where I volunteer working with youth (12 - 18 years old at Open Door Ministry.

I'm retired from officiated soccer for 27 years and also was an Assessor and Instructor for United States Soccer Federation 30 years. I have worked with youth a very long time. I mentor a girl at risk with Save Our Youth, in the Denver area. I have been finger printed and had a back ground check to make sure I could be around kids..

Great with dogs! My own dog loves me (I think) because he gets lots of attention, cuddles, and quality time. Yours will too. I will make sure to spend all the time in the world making sure your dog has the best day

“We have hired Jenny several times now and each time she is responsive, reliable, eager to learn about our kids (ages 8 & 9), and find ways to connect with them. She is easy going, willing to meet the needs we express or go with the flow when we don't have much specific instructions. We feel at ease when we are away and our boys are really enjoying getting to know her and they really appreciate having someone play the active stuff they like to do.”
Katie $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Katie! I’m originally from California and I’m here in Denver for an internship working with single mothers coming out of addiction or abuse. I have had over seven years of experience working in childcare with infants to even teenagers! I bring a warm and calm presence to any environment I’m in. I enjoy crafts, dancing, singing, imaginative play and so much more! I have a Bachelors degree in Behavioral Health Science from Grand Canyon University and I constantly love to implement my education in my childcare adventures! I love taking the kids I watch to different activities if permitted by the parents, these can include the park, library story time and museums!
