Booked by 3 families in Idaho Springs, CO

I have over 17 years in both Elementary Teaching and Early Childhood Education. I miss the chance to use the skills learned over years while I am currently at home. I am kind, positive, and set expectations and boundaries where needed. I take the natural opportunities to teach interpersonal and problem solving skills, as well as academic skills. I have many years experience working with ages newborn and up. I taught Early Childhood, 2nd and 4th grades. I've created childcare worker training for a previous job that did not have any and have taken CPR/First Aid/Universal Precautions trainings many times as well as car seat trainings. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I do not smoke anything at all, do not use any kind of drug & have a clean driving record. I take the responsibility of your child's safety and care very seriously. I will work to protect them physically and with what they are exposed to on tv, social media or otherwise. I am flexible and don't get rattled easily. The first year of my sons life was my favorite, though I find great joys with all ages. I have worked with a variety of special needs. You can look at the "Professional Teaching Experience" section on my resume to see my formal experience (feel free to ask for that). I've babysat since I was in 7th grade and worked in church nurseries prior to that. I am married with one child and like to move and be outside when I can. You are welcome to ask any questions of me as it is important to know who your children are spending time with. Kiersten

Kiersten was amazing with our son! Would definitely hire her again.

Booked by 3 families in Idaho Springs, CO

Hello! My name is Jordan. I am 33 years old and live in Boulder. I have a BS in Business Management and an AS in Health Science. I have a new 2025 AWD vehicle for reliable transportation. I don’t smoke or vape. I don’t have any pets or children of my own, but I have been with Trusted House Sitters for the past two years, so I have ample pet experience and over 30 5-star reviews. I grew up in a tight-knit community and started babysitting as a young teenager. I nannied while in college and took classes in Early Childhood Education as electives. I have experience with children of all age groups, although I specialize in infants and love watching them learn! I have a substitute teaching certificate through the state of Colorado and occasionally substitute teach at Boulder Valley School District. I am CPR certified through the American Heart Association.

Jordan handled six kids and two dogs like an absolute pro! She jumped right in and started dinner for the kids so we could finish getting ready. When we got home not only was everyone fed and ready for bed, but the house was tidy and clean. The kids had a great time and we look forward to booking her again!

Booked by 1 family in Idaho Springs, CO

I’m a retired neonatal nurse practitioner and mother of 4 adult children. I have nannied for several families now that I am retired. I love working with newborns and new parents. I describe myself as a “rent a grandma”. Meaning if your mom could come help you with your newborn anytime you wanted, but you could also tell her to leave when you wanted that’s me. I like teaching new moms and dads about newborn care, sleep schedules and feeding (breast and bottle). Overnight care is available so you can get the rest you need. I have both the professional experience and mothering experience to help you enjoy being a new parent.

Lorraine is by far the most competent and qualified sitter we have ever had and likely ever will, her extensive medical background at the children's hospital is hard to beat. we felt she took very good care of our kids and would love to use her again in the future 5/5 stars and highly recommend.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
