Booked by 2 families in Englewood, CO

Hi there, my name is Lindsay! With a compassionate heart and a wealth of experience, I am dedicated to providing attentive, nurturing, and engaging care for children of all ages. My background in babysitting, volunteering with the Englewood school district, and working with a nonprofit that supports kids with different learning styles has given me a deep understanding of how to foster confidence and social skills in young minds. As a medical professional and current nursing student, I am well-versed in safety and well-being, holding a Basic Life Support (BLS) certification from the American Heart Association. Whether it’s ensuring a child's health and safety or creating a fun, enriching environment, I bring both knowledge and warmth to my caregiving approach. Beyond my professional skills, I have a natural ability to connect with children through music, creativity, and play, keeping them active and engaged in ways that make learning fun. As a step-parent and experienced caregiver, I understand the importance of patience, adaptability, and a nurturing presence in a child’s life. Additionally, my love for animals means I’m comfortable in pet-friendly homes, ensuring that both little ones and furry family members receive the care and attention they deserve. With my experience, empathy, and dedication, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and joyful environment for every child in my care.

“Lindsay was so sweet and wonderful with our kids! She was very communicative, prompt, cleaned up after dinner, and overall very reliable. Our kids asked if she could come back again!”

Booked by 1 family in Englewood, CO

Hello! My name is Dartanion, but you can call me Doc. I’m 22 years old and offer professional child care, pet care, and house sitting services. I have 2–3 years of experience in Early Childhood Education (ECE) and come from a large family as the oldest of seven siblings — which has given me years of hands-on experience in caring for children of all ages and managing busy households. I’m known for being dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. Whether I’m engaging children in creative learning activities, ensuring pets are well cared for and comfortable, or keeping a home organized and secure, I approach every task with professionalism and care. Families can count on me to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment while maintaining clear communication and reliability. I truly enjoy helping families feel confident and at ease while they’re away

“Mr. Doc is amazing with kids. Relatable, on-time, and took great care of my two toddlers. We can’t wait to have him back in the future! ”

Lauren $19 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I am a mom to a 2.5-year-old. I am CPR and first aid certified. In addition to this, I've had many different experiences caring for children, ranging from being a nanny to teaching and working at youth organizations and schools. Experience: --I was a nanny for a 13- and 14-year-old the summer after college. --I worked at a home for children in Mexico for three years, where I cared for the children and helped with various education projects. --I taught reading and writing at an elementary school and was a Community School Director at a junior high. --I have a Master’s Degree in International Development and Education and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy. Beyond childcare, I also have experience caring for animals. At home, I take care of our two dogs as well as geese, ducks, and chickens. These responsibilities have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a routine—qualities that carry over into caregiving for children. I love caring for children and animals alike and have made it my life’s work to nurture, teach, and support others!
