Hi! My name is Grace, I am a Colorado native, and I have my B.A. from University of Colorado-Boulder in Psychology & Spanish :) I began working with kids at the age of nine, when I earned my “babysitter's license”. Since then, I've developed a strong foundation in childcare, supported by my CPR and first aid certifications for infants, children, and adults. For the past 8 years, I have taught private swim lessons, guiding children of all ages who are developing their swimming skills & water safety knowledge. I have taught “Kids’ yoga” for 4+ years at an athletic club in Centennial, and also currently work for an indoor ski and snowboard company in Denver! My leadership abilities were further honed through my role as head swim coach for a summer swim team, and student government president. This experience has not only sharpened my instructional skills but also reinforced my commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children under my care. I have my certificate from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in AI and Data Science, and I work remote for NASA training behavioral machine learning models. My diverse experience with psychology, education, technology, and caring for children of all ages, combined with my dedication to responsible care & positive child development, and my passion for working with kids, makes me an excellent choice for whatever your family’s needs may entail. Please reach out to me with any questions or to schedule a booking! I look forward to working with you & helping however I can :)

Grace watched our 10-month-old, 2.5-year-old, and 9-year-old and was incredible. My oldest usually gets bummed when we have a sitter and she has to miss out on the fun, but after the first night with Grace she was actually excited for the next night! Grace was confident, asked all the right questions, and clearly knows what she’s doing. She even remembered what my daughter liked and brought activities for them to do together once the younger ones were asleep. With a baby and toddler it can be hard to make sure my oldest still gets attention, and Grace handled that really thoughtfully. We’d absolutely use Grace again and highly recommend her to other families!!

Hello! I’m Margie, I work full time and am working towards my masters to be a clinical counselor. I am looking to pick up weekend babysitting shifts in order to help pay for my school and books. I am the 2nd oldest of ten kids and I have a lot of child care experience. I am living in Denver, Colorado, eager to help families with their occasional and part time childcare needs. With experience caring for newborns, toddlers, and primary school children, I offer a nurturing and supportive environment. I provide live-out services, which means I can work on an occasional or part-time basis to fit your schedule. Whether you need assistance during the day or after school, I am here to support your family. I understand the unique needs at each stage of development and strive to create engaging activities that promote learning, creativity and fun. My focus is on providing a safe and loving atmosphere for your little ones while allowing parents peace of mind. I charge $25 per hour for my services, and I am flexible to adapt to your family's specific requirements. If you are looking for a reliable sitter who can care for your children while you attend to other responsibilities, feel free to message me. I would love to discuss how I can assist you and your family! PLEASE NOTE: I must be paid for the time booked. If the shift is posted 5(12, 8 etc) hours I will need to be paid for the 5 (12, 8 etc) hours even if parents come home early.

Hi my name is Rachel. I am currently in the Masters of Social Work program at the University of Denver where I focus on child wellbeing and development. Prior to this I worked as an accountant for four years at tech companies, which strengthened my reliability, organization, and communication skills. I have been babysitting since I was thirteen years old and have cared for children regularly throughout the years. I currently work with multiple families on an ongoing basis. I have experience with children from four months old to fifteen years old and feel comfortable adapting to each child’s needs and routines. My responsibilities typically include ensuring safety at all times, preparing meals, giving baths, helping with bedtime routines, engaging children in play and outdoor activities, taking them to the park or beach, assisting with homework, and driving as needed. I am patient, attentive, and genuinely love supporting kids as they learn and grow. I look forward to meeting your family and providing dependable and caring support whenever you need it.

Our daughter loved Rachel and keeps asking us if she can come back. She is reliable and trustworthy to take care of children.

My brief description would be I'm a fun-loving babysitter. I simply enjoy spending time with children. I pride myself on being able to play and act goofy with the kids, yet still have them listen and respect me. I love taking children to interactive and fun activities such as the park, zoo, plays, etc. But I can also spend the day at home coloring, dancing, and playing eye spy. It's very easy for me to connect with kids. Keeping the child's well-being is something I take very seriously. I'm a good person with a patient attitude, and assertive when needed. I understand the importance of my role, and I'm willing to take on that responsibility.

My son had a blast with her! They played outside and went to the museum. He was pretty tuckered out from all their fun. Would definitely hire her again!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
