"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Christina $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi - My name is Christina and I recently moved to Colorado with my husband. I am offering child care, pet care, and some household services. I love being a babysitter and have watched/worked with toddlers and children over the past few years. I've babysat for families with children ages three to five, and have worked as a tutor and teaching assistant for elementary and middle school teachers. My responsibilities have included tutoring, dinner and bed time routine, and general childcare. I do have a car and am able to drop off and pick up children to and from school/activities. I'm also willing to help with household services like light cleaning and pickup, laundry, etc... I am happy to work with families with cats or dogs. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!
Scott $35 per hour for 1 child
Gabi $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m a 4th Grade teacher in Denver Public Schools district on summer break. I’ve taught elementary grade levels (all subjects!) for 6 years. Throughout the years, I’ve taught 3rd grade, 2nd grade, and 4th grade. I am very familiar with the Literacy and Math standards progression from K-5 and the strategies/language students need to learn to reach their academic goals. In past summers, I have taught summer school, coordinated summer camps, and worked for the parks and rec department a coaching soccer and basketball. I believe that learning needs to be a great mix of hard work and fun! This summer, I decided to take the summer off and not commit to a full time position. So here I am- still very much eager to be around kids on a part time basis. I’m excited to meet you, your family, and learn about how I can be the most helpful!
