Booked by 11 families in Dupont, CO

Hello everyone! My name is Mónica I have been a pediatric Registered Nurse for over 10 years. Now, after 6 years of travel nursing, I am taking a break from the extremely demanding, fast-pace bedside nursing, to pursue my masters degree to become a Nurse Practitioner. My school is online which gives me lots of flexibility and availability! And I am also bilingual in Spanish and English. Before becoming a nurse, I worked as a nanny for many years and continued working with my families all throughout nursing school. With that said, I have extensive experience working with kiddos of all ages, including kiddos with special needs and those with complex medical conditions. As a nurse/nanny perk, I hold current BLS and CPR certifications; and am very comfortable in any type of situations, including emergencies. As an every day human, I am kind, dependable, and professional. I truly enjoy working with kids, hence why I dedicated my carrier to their wellbeing. I am patient, silly, and always up for building blanket forts, making arts and crafts, exploring the outdoors, and reading stories. I am also available to help with homework, house chores, and pet care as needed 😊 As a babysitter, I truly believe in creating an environment where kids feel happy, supported, and free to be themselves. Update: currently only looking for occasional jobs! If you think we could be a good fit and I could meet your needs, shoot me a PM!

“I had the pleasure of hiring Monica as a babysitter for my 19-month-old, and I can confidently say that she is absolutely fantastic! From the moment Monica arrived, my child was immediately comfortable with her, which is a testament to her caring and nurturing nature. Throughout the day, Monica kept my child engaged with age-appropriate activities and ensured that he was always happy and comfortable. Monica was patient, calm, and reassuring. Additionally, Monica was incredibly easy to work with. She was responsive to my messages and accommodating when our plans were out of the ordinary. Overall, I would highly recommend Monica as a babysitter to anyone in need of childcare. She is kind, responsible, and clearly has a gift for working with children. I'm so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

Booked by 6 families in Dupont, CO

Hello, my name is McKinzey and I have about 4.5 years nannying experience, with several years of childcare/babysitting experience as well and I was a preschool teacher for a time. I was also a professional birth and postpartum doula for nearly 6 years where I cared for many infants and toddlers. I will be starting graduate school in the fall to earn my Masters of Library and Information Science with a concentration in youth services, to hopefully one day become a children's librarian. So I would bring my love of reading and life long learning to the role! I would love to share more and answer any of your questions.

“McKinzey was fantastic with our 10-month old! We can’t wait to have her over again!”
