Find a last-minute babysitter in Dupont, CO

I am a 26-year-old professional with a degree in Elementary Education and extensive experience working with children. I began babysitting throughout high school and college, developing strong skills in childcare, communication, and creating a safe and nurturing environment. I also have three years of professional experience in school settings, including working with students in special education. My background in education and childcare has provided me with a strong understanding of children’s individual needs, development, and learning styles.

Hi my name is Niesha! I have a passion for working with children and started babysitting over 10 years ago! My experiences, creating a safe space, crafting unique activities, and being someone dependable encouraged me to pursue a career where I could support the youth. I am a provisional mental health therapist who specializes in children/adolescent therapy. I wanted to get back into baby sitting to support my community! I have experience working with children ages infant-adolescents. I spent years supporting families at my childhood daycare, helping families through babysitting sites, and local communities spots. During college, I spent a year being a full time nanny-in this role I was responsible for meals, basic clean up, prepping for kindergarten, and helping with light house work as needed. I also have experience pet sitting when families needed extra support! I believe in an active role of babysitting where children get to explore their interests whether that’s through crafts, books, building blocks, or playing in the front yard! I hope to bring fun and support to your family:)

I have always loved children, and I have always taken care of the children in my family and 10 years ago I started professionally. I'm CPR/First Aid/AED and Advanced Child Care trained. I do playful activities with the kids, so they can develop new skills, stimulate cognition and motor coordination. I help with all the routine that parents need, and I adapt to the routine and methods chosen and applied by the family, because it helps the need to have an organized routine to reduce stress and anxiety, then they will have the habit of performing activities according to a routine they already know. All this time taking care of children, I learned that I love dealing with them even more than I imagined, they are always so grateful for everything we've done, they show us so much gratitude in the form of affection and love that makes it all so special. Every child is very different and I give them space so they can feel comfortable being themselves, being respected, loved and feeling safe.

I live in an apartment downtown with a cat and dog. Willing to pet sit most dogs as long as they get along with my current pets. Can only handle three dogs total including my dog.

Hi! My name is Kayla and I'm currently a toddler teacher at a preschool. I work with young toddlers ages 1-2 and have over a year of experience doing so. I am looking forward to being able to work with smaller groups of children in order to provide the one on one care that they need. I like to take a conscious discipline approach to childcare and really value play based learning with lots of enriching activities. I also love animals and am happy to work for families with pets!
