I was born and raised in Jacksonville Florida and recently made the big move to Denver! I've worked at daycares, learning centers, elementary schools and at family homes as a nanny through college, so I am well versed in taking care of children in different platforms/ for different needs. I'm trained in pediatric first aid and CPR certified. I also have taken and completed courses in child development and nutrition. I'm so excited to meet your kiddos! I think I’d be a great fit for you and your family. Prices are not set in stone and I’m willing to change and talk through them with you. Please call or text me at [removed] or email me at [removed] or the email given with the account.Thank you so much for the opportunity and I hope to see you soon.

I recently left teaching to pursue caring for and educating children on my own terms and my own schedule. I have 10+ years of childcare experience working as a nanny, and 15+ years working as a tutor and teacher. I offer childcare services, tutoring services, enrichment services, and developmental support for physical, occupational, speech, and feeding therapies. I have experience working with children from infancy to 17 years old. I am CPR and First Aid certified through the Red Cross. I do not smoke, and I have my own transportation which can be used for your service needs. My bachelor’s degree is in Deaf Education. My specialization areas include Middle Level Mathematics and Language Arts. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I have 15 years of experience working with children with special needs, including: autism (ASD), deaf, blind, ADHD, Downs Syndrome, fetal alcohol syndrome, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and more.
“Allison has worked with my son who has a disability for a year now. She is reliable and very patient with my son. Allison isn’t afraid to ask for help when she’s unsure of what to do in a situation. She not only watches my son, but has taught him developmental skills.”
Jennifer $30 per hour for 1 child
Mother of two successful female college graduates looking for extra income in my off season. I work as a self employed Landscape Architect and have flexible time throughout the season. I realize I miss having kiddos around and love to spend time, teach, cook, play with them. I taught cooking school for kids so that’s an activity I have lots of experience with! I love pets too and happy to take both human and fur babies on urban adventures.
Natali $30 per hour for 1 child
I have several years of experience working with young children in a Montessori school setting. I’m caring, patient, and responsible, and I love creating a safe and positive environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I’m also familiar with Montessori activities and enjoy encouraging children’s independence and creativity. I’d be happy to provide your family with reliable and loving childcare!
