Booked by 11 families in Elizabeth, CO

Hi! My name is Samantha, and I’m 20 years old. I have over 5 years of babysitting experience and 2.5 years of formal childcare experience working as a nanny and in a daycare setting. Through these experiences, I have cared for children ranging from 6 weeks to 10+ years of age, giving me confidence in meeting the needs of children at every stage of development. I enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment for children through activities such as outdoor play, reading, crafts, and helping with homework. I believe in being active and involved while also providing dependable and attentive care. I graduated with an Associate of Science degree and completed coursework as a Pre-Radiology major. I also hold an active CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) license and have medical experience, including Basic Life Support (BLS) and First Aid training. My pediatric healthcare background has strengthened my ability to remain calm, attentive, and prepared in a variety of situations. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, errands, and household tasks as needed. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving children to and from school, activities, and appointments. I also love animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I am more than happy to help care for your pets alongside your children. I take pride in being reliable, responsible, and caring, and I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide quality care for your children and pets, and homes.

Sam was on time, outgoing and engaged with my boys all evening. They said she was really fun and they want me to have her help us again soon! She even sent me an update mid-evening to let me know that all was good, which was great to hear. Would definitely hire Sam again!

Nicole Castle Rock
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Nicole and I am a mom of two boys ages 13 and 11. The youngest of 7, I grew up in Michigan where much of my immediate family resides. I played sports in college, had a 14 year career in healthcare sales & marketing, then met my husband & started our family. We are active year round in baseball, I volunteer with our Church where & when needed and specifically with Kids Ministry. I am active but appreciate downtown & recharging. I like a cheat treat to eat, but mostly eat healthy. I am incredibly comfortable with newborns & toddlers, and worked as a nanny for two families, both newborns, before having my first child. With newborns, I’m capable of helping sleep train, create and maintain consistent schedules & activities, solve challenges, and love your precious baby well. Toddlers require healthy boundaries and space to safely experience. I’m up to the task, and will love them well as I tire them out;). I’m happy to drive to appointments, assist with cats and dogs, snacks, light housekeeping relative to the kids, and guidance with any kiddos chores.

Zoe Parker
$22 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been working as a daycare teacher for a little over a year now but I’m looking for something more flexible since i’m starting culinary school! I’ve worked with ages 0-5 but I mainly care for 0-2 as I was a teacher for the infant and toddler rooms. I love to cook, clean, do art, and play with kids! I’m an older sibling to a brother and a sister and spent a lot of time caring for them when they were younger. I’ve had many pets and am very good with them!

Hi - my name is Leah. I am offering child care, senior care and household services.
