Hello!!! My name is Deanna and I have been a Colorado resident for 10 years; I have been watching children for 20+ years! **I am the current nanny in a share so am only looking for occasional or evening gigs, thank you** I am comfortable with children as young as newborns and as old as teenagers. I have assisted in raising at least a dozen babies to toddlers and beyond. I am comfortable with one or two children up to a whole classroom of children. I have worked in individual family's homes, after-school programs, pre-schools, been an au pair internationally and have watched many children at birthday parties and on family vacations. When it comes to child care, there is almost nothing that can surprise me or that I haven’t seen or experienced before. I am caring, compassionate, consistent, dependable and fun. I grew up in a family where both parents worked full-time and therefore, I like to be a good role model for children because the sitters I had in my childhood were huge influences on me and I would like to be the same positive influence. I believe in consistency, teaching independence that fosters growth and new ideas, and learning through play. I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and adventure and of arts and crafts. I recognize that children are the future and believe it’s important to teach them valuable skills such as manners, empathy and kindness to carry with them throughout life. I look forward to learning more about you and your family :)

Booked by 22 families in Littleton, CO

Howdy! My name is Madison (but I go by Maddi as well, whichever you prefer). I am an environmental scientist and researcher by trade but engage in care giving on the side. A little bit about me: I am the eldest daughter among 6 siblings. As such, I have plenty of practical experience in addition to my years of babysitting while getting my undergraduate and graduate degrees. Regarding my personality and hobbies, I love music, art, learning, and outdoor recreation. I am a multi-instrumentalist musician - I can sing and play the guitar, piano, and ukelele. I listen to a lot of music on the daily and I like to play, listen, and dance to music with the kids I babysit. I enjoy getting in touch with my creative side as much as I can. I love painting, drawing, making random crafts. I also really enjoy reading, going to the library, and going outside whenever I get the chance. Depending on the age of your kids, I am able to help with homework and school work, (particularly with science, english, history, and some lower level maths). I like to engage kids in fun activities and see tv, cell phone usage, and other electronics as more of last resort entertainment methods. I try to stay off of my phone as much as possible when I'm babysitting so that I’m able to be present and engaged. I find that this allows kids to have more fun and also be more present with me. I drive a fully insured, completely up-to-date on maintenance 2021 Toyota Rav4, so I'm able to drop off/pick up kids from school and/or other activities in my own vehicle. I am also comfortable driving other SUVs, trucks, and sedan vehicles as well, so whatever works best for you works for me! I have a spotless driving record and take car safety extremely seriously. I am mainly looking for one-off opportunities and am able to do overnight stays during the week and weekends as well. Thanks for taking the time to read this! I look forward to meeting with you and your little ones!

Booked by 96 families in Littleton, CO

Hello, I am Cyn. I am 35 years young, originally from South Florida. I relocated to Denver in January 2017 and I absolutely love it here. *Fluent in Spanish* Friends would say I am an adventurous, passionate, hilarious soul. I love music, food, animals, nature, and kids! I began working with children and families in 2009. In Florida, I worked as a youth program director at the YMCA, an assistant teacher, and a long term (8yrs) nanny for 2 families. Since moving to Denver, I have had the pleasure of working with over 100 families. I enjoy the outdoors and creative outlets the most. I paint, play, do crafts, read, and love to implement those activities into daily life. I consider myself a role model for kids, and have been told by peers and employers alike that I have a dynamic personality. I have my own reliable 4x4 transportation, with a squeaky clean driving record.

“She was on time, very communicative, and incredibly chill and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable having her here and will definitely hire her again!”

Hi families! Update October 2026* I am working full time during the weekdays and am available for occasional & date night sitting only in the evening or weekends* My name is Emma, I've been babysitting and nannying for a little over 8 years now. I went to college for social work, and I have worked with kids in a variety of environments from school as a paraprofessional, to tutoring, nannying, as well as being a case manager. I am looking for occasional positions, one time, or part time. I have a clean driving record, my own vehicle, & I’m CPR/first aid certified. I am comfortable with pets as I grew up with cats and dogs. I love doing different activities with kids from games, puzzles & crafts, playing outside, reading, and everything in between! I have experience working with children from infant to teenage years. I am also happy to prepare meals and help with light housekeeping as well. I look forward to talking with you. Best, Emma
