Myjena $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Yani, I am 22 years old, I live near Denver CO, and I am currently in my second semester of Nursing School! I love love love all children and animals and am even considering Obstetrics or Peds for my nursing specialty! I currently do home caregiving and have 1 client who I help bathe, dress, feed, and care for. I have two girl nieces (5 & 8) who are my absolute best friends and when the time is right, I can’t wait to make a little league of my own! ✨ I am super flexible with my schedule (as long as college permits it of course) but I have all summer off and I am totally willing to try something new!

Booked by 40 families in Firestone, CO

Hi! My name is Julie and I live in Boulder County. I spent six months working as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at The Learning Experience in Westminster. I have experience working with children from 6 weeks to 12 years old. In June 2024, I graduated from a performing arts school in New York City. Each time I provided childcare, my ultimate goal is to meet each kid where they are at. I believe structure, compassion, and a nurturing environment are key. When I'm not caring for children, I am in the studio training and auditioning for dance productions and modeling jobs. My favorite style of dance is ballet! Thank you for considering me as your new babysitter. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Hi Family! My name is Bailey and I come with an extensive amount of childcare experience with all ages. With over two decades of experience, one of my favorite things in life is to spend time with children and help them learn. My all time favorite role though is being an auntie to my 5 nieces and nephews. I went to college for Intercultural Studies and Elementary Education and have my teaching credential. I started babysitting at a very young age (10 years old to be exact- different times!) and gathered extensive and vast experience throughout the years including full-time nannying, teaching, sports camps, church nurseries, Special Olympics, summer programs, and a dip into baby consulting. The ages I have worked with span from newborn (out of the hospital) to 15 years old (basically just a glorified Uber driver for one family :) ). Since I have worked with so many age groups, I would love to work and watch any child of any age. I love to have fun, be silly, be creative and play with the children. At the same time, I have good discipline and patience for children when needed. I am very respectful of what the parents want for their children and how they parent them. Since I went to school for teaching, I have taken some child development classes and I love putting what I learned into practice! I was a competitive swimmer for 15 years year round and would love to take children swimming if that is something you wanted. I also have been CPR/First Aid certified countless times and was once lifeguard certified and trained. I have a car and would love to run any errands or take the children anywhere. I am very experienced with driving and am an extremely safe driver. I do not mind doing light housework or fixing the children meals, and also pets are not a problem for me. My hours are flexible as well. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank You, Bailey

Hi! My name is Caitlyn! I am 19 and a college student, studying nursing. I am offering child care, pet care, and household care. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have been babysitting since I was 12 for ages 2-12. I have also taught Sunday school/babysitting during church for ages from newborn to 11 years for the past 2 years now. Growing up I had a dog and two cats whom I have taken full care of. I know how to preform basic household chores along with running errands. I often do both of those to help my mom out. I truly love being around kids and just having a good time!

“The best sitter ever she handled Alexander with so much care and made sure he was active and playing the entire time! ”
