Charlotte $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm 21 and have 5 years of nannying experience, starting part-time and moving to full-time at 18. I've cared for children aged 6 weeks-9 years, including those with developmental delays, mild autism, and an infant on oxygen. I hold CPR and first aid certifications and can provide references from previous families. My approach to childcare is gentle and firm, considering the children's thoughts and feelings while maintaining leadership. I emphasize outdoor play, reading, and Montessori practices over screen time. I'm seeking a job with around 25-30 hours a week, Monday-Friday.

Sephra $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I'm Sephra! Colorado resident of 2 years, originally from Arizona! Being raised in the foster system, I have experience in caring for children of all ages and situations. As live-in caregiver for my grandparents in their final years, I have the necessary experience for senior care, including those with health issues such as Alzheimer's and seizures. I am close with my 2 and 4 year old niece and nephew - I adore them very much and they love their "Auntie Sesa." I've worked in healthcare as a Medical Assistant for the past 10 years, with family practice and urgent care making up half of my career. I am great with children of various ages as well as senior folks, and can take action in an emergency as needed. I love fur children as well - I am mom to 2 kittens, Cheeto and Mochi, and have raised chameleons, snakes, and hedgehogs! I enjoy a good (or bad) dad joke, discuss fitness and nutrition, play creatively, and nerd- out on video games and pop culture. I look forward to taking care of your family! -Sephra

Emily $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Emily. I am originally from Texas, and here's a bit about my time in childcare! I began babysitting for families in my neighborhood at 12. In high school, I started a nanny-share group for middle school teachers, where a friend and I would pick up 15-20 elementary students and supervise them until their parents finished teaching. I started nannying for two families when I got my driver's license. I would pick up the kids from school and spend the evenings helping them with homework. Over the summers, I would nanny all day, and occasionally, in the evenings, I enjoyed taking the kids to the park, zoo, and museums. Kids need to get out of the house sometimes. When I started college, I realized how much I missed working with children. To reconnect, I took a student assistant position at the Child Development Research Center on campus, where I worked with kids from 3 weeks to 5 years old. I spent my first year in the infant class and then rotated between toddler and preschool classes for my second year. Although I had to leave due to scheduling conflicts, I continued to babysit and nanny for the families I had met there. Now, I have some other fun facts about myself! After I graduated, I went to Walt Disney World, where I participated in the Disney College Program. I am the biggest Disney fan, and I loved my time there. After my program ended, I moved to Loveland, Colorado, to live with my brother. I am learning to like the snow and love the mountain views; the weather is much nicer here than in Texas. I enjoy coloring and reading during my relaxation time. I also like cooking and baking. I am very open and honest and like to maintain good communication.

I've grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for and looked after them ever since I can remember. I've pet sat many times before looking after both dogs and cats. I've always enjoyed looking after animals!
