Hi! My name is Hanna and I'm 26 years old. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I moved to Boulder in 2022 from San Diego, CA. I grew up in northern California and moved to SD for school, where I graduated from SDSU. Over the past 11 years, I've had a wide range of experiences working with kids and have grown such a love for caregiving and creating a fun, safe space for little ones. I was a summer camp counselor for three years, where I developed camp curriculum and led children ages 5 to 12 in fun games, crafts and activities. I've also had approximately three years of experience as a respite care provider, where I gave in-home care to dozens of kids with varying developmental disabilities, ranging from toddler-age to late teens. I have enjoyed being a babysitter and full-time nanny for individual families in recent years as well, where my responsibilities have included diaper changes, driving to/from school, playtime, settling sibling squabbles, etc. I especially love getting creative with art projects, playing outdoors, and helping with homework/lessons. I am also comfortable with light cooking and cleaning around the house, running errands, house sitting, and caring for both cats and dogs. I have no allergies to animals and would be delighted to walk, feed, and/or play with your furry friend.
“Hanna is AWESOME!!! When she was with my kids, she was very engaged with them! She showed patience, care, and love to my boys. Did things exactly as I said. I was very grateful for meeting her! Will definitely hire her again when she is available! ”
Hi there— my name is Rachel. I am an experienced caregiver and household support professional in my mid thirties with over 10 years of full-time nanny experience caring for children 4 months and up. I have worked steadily with toddlers and am diligent in following or creating daily rhythms for young ones, as well as providing developmentally appropriate care for kids of all ages. I love connecting with children through music, storytelling, hands-on creativity, and curiosity-led exploration. Supporting emotional regulation, resilience, and self-expression is central to how I work with kids. I aim to create spaces where they can grow while feeling secure and understood. I have a breadth of experience in nature connection and have worked previously as an outdoor camp instructor. I bring a strong foundation in nature-based mentorship and social-emotional learning through time playing outdoors. In addition to long-term nanny roles, my background includes household management, and private chef experience. I am comfortable supporting the full rhythm of home life, from school routines and play to nourishing meal prep and keeping things organized behind the scenes. Families I work with often describe me as warm, grounded, playful, dependable and intuitive. I take safety and responsibility seriously while bringing warmth, joy, and calm presence into the home. My goal is always to support not just the children, but the whole family system and create an environment where everyone feels supported and at ease. Currently I am working with many families via Urban Sitter providing temporary care, slipping in when needed to provide grounded and easeful support. I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family.
“Rachel handled double toddlers with ease for multiple days in a row. The boys loved her and asked when Ms.Rachel would come back. Highly recommend. ”
Hello! My name is Christine. I have been babysitting for several years. My first official job at 13 years old was through a work force program that allowed me to be a daycare worker and summer camp counselor at the daycare. I have several cousins and a handful of nieces and nephews that I have cared for before, during, and after my mother had her own daycare in our home. And I am currently a Substitute teacher focusing on Early Childhood Education! This means I am thrown into rooms with all the younger age groups every day or few weeks, learning new children regularly and adapting to new environments. I was in the medical field for several years and was most recently running a non-profit Doula training organization. However, I find the most joy in nurturing children and helping their little minds grow!
Hi! I am a 19-year-old caregiver. I have 5 years of experience working with children of all ages, from babies to grade-schoolers. I've worked in a nursery and daycare, as well as being a full-time nanny for a 7-year-old boy! I'm creative, enthusiastic, and empathetic, with a passion for engaging kids through crafts, music, and fun games. I am a Musical Theatre major at CU Boulder and absolutely love entertaining kids! I'm also very comfortable with pets, cooking, chores, and even helping with homework. With my first aid certification and reliable transportation, I'm ready to provide excellent care for your family. Let me know how I can help, and I look forward to meeting you!
“I would highly recommend Tessa for babysitting! She has watched my 16 month old many times. She is very patient, fun, trustworthy and loving.”
Hi, My Name is Aminata Aalyah and I am a student at University of Colorado Boulder studying medicine. I am offering childcare, petcare, and household services. I have been babysitting kids for over five years and I absolutely love it; it’s even inspired me to become a Pediatrician. I have been CPR, Stop the Bleed, and BLS certified 3 times. I am also a licensed phlebotomist. My previous responsibilities when booked have included running errands, cooking, driving, and tutoring. I am comfortable caring for families with dogs, cats, etc.
“Our kids connected with Aminata immediately, which is HUGE! Highly recommend!!!!!”
