Hello! My name is Hayley and I’m new to Urban Sitter. I am a third-year dental student on the Anschutz Medical Campus. Prior to dental school, I spent a year working as a pediatric dental assistant, and I regularly babysat kids of all ages throughout high school while also working as a lifeguard. I loved being a babysitter, and lately I have missed spending time with kiddos. I have a very large family with lots of little ones, but unfortunately, few of them live close to me. I am CPR certified and fully vaccinated. I am happy to help with work around the house, run errands, and my friends tell me I am a great cook! I love card games, sewing, snowboarding, rollerblading, painting, and learning new things.
“Hayley is fabulous!!!”
HI! I have a Masters degree in Social work and retired from being a social worker for 30+ years during covid, including with youth. I have been a contract nanny for a 13 month old and 5 yr old (about 15 years ago). I volunteer for an outdoor nature camp with 5-9 year olds. Love to do art, music, movement, singing, silliness and play. I have been doing house and petsitting for the past 3 years, not active with urbansitter much. (note: I got a low review from a one time sitting job who wanted me to come when she was highly contagious with what seemed to be norovirus.)
Hi there, My name is Karsyn and I look forward to connecting with you! Months ago I quit my tech job to start a small business and while it's been lovely, my husband and I decided we need more cash coming in while I build it out. I have years of babysitting experience, with a full year using this app in the past so you can check out my reviews! I am 33, very professional, mature and willing to go the extra mile to ensure you feel like your child is in good hands. I enjoy children very much and after realizing I needed a part-time job, I decided this was the route I was most excited about! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. Talk soon!
“Karsyn is awesome!”
Hi there! My name is Marina and I am looking for occasional babysitting jobs for a little extra cash! Originally from California, I recently moved to Denver to be closer to family and to work in the field I am passionate about, forensic psychology. My other interests include reading good books, hiking in rainy weather, and trying new restaurants! I have been babysitting for about 15 years now, having started in junior high school babysitting for family members and friends. I have experience caring for toddlers, elementary school-aged children and adolescents. I am punctual, respectful and responsible, and I assure you that if I am babysitting for you, your child is in great hands! I like to have fun and be silly, while also setting limits and ensuring your child's safety. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I am available weeknights and weekends, especially in the evening. Thank you!
Hi my name is Zaveah! I am a stay at home mother with a babygirl(14 months) looking to work with other families offering both childcare and household services. I am a caring, responsible, and patient childcare provider who genuinely enjoys helping children learn and grow. With experience supporting students in a school setting and managing a structured home environment, I understand the importance of safety, routine, and positive guidance. I strive to create a nurturing space where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to be themselves.
