Hi! My name is Elexys, but I go by Lexi. I'm 19 years old and currently attend Metropolitan State University studying nursing, with plans to begin nursing school by August 2026. I've been babysitting since I was 12 and also work as an assistant coach at Relentless Volleyball Club for 13 yr olds. I love working with kiddos and always aim to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment for them to learn and grow.
Hi! My name is Kayla and I'm currently a toddler teacher at a preschool. I work with young toddlers ages 1-2 and have over a year of experience doing so. I am looking forward to being able to work with smaller groups of children in order to provide the one on one care that they need. I like to take a conscious discipline approach to childcare and really value play based learning with lots of enriching activities. I also love animals and am happy to work for families with pets!
My name is Robin . I was born in a close knit small farming community in California, where I resided for 45 years. This is where I raised my 3 children. I was a stay at home Mom\housewife I was very involved in their after school sports. As I have been with my Grandchildren. I feel I am a natural at caregiving. I am friendly, always ready to chat or lend a helping hand. I am dependable, and able to handle multiple tasks on a daily basis. I have experience with senior care as well. After moving to Colorado I became a Vet Tech, and it came very natural to me (my lifelong passion).
I am a 26-year-old professional with a degree in Elementary Education and extensive experience working with children. I began babysitting throughout high school and college, developing strong skills in childcare, communication, and creating a safe and nurturing environment. I also have three years of professional experience in school settings, including working with students in special education. My background in education and childcare has provided me with a strong understanding of children’s individual needs, development, and learning styles.
I'm a mom of three and naturally good with people and pets of all ages. As a mom of three, I'm very comfortable with the real-life chaos that comes with kids, pets, schedules, messes, snacks, homework, and all the fun personality quirks that make a family unique. I'm reliable, patient, organized, and calm under pressure, but I'm also down to make blanket forts, do crafts, play outside, bake cookies, or just chill and watch a movie or read a book.
