I grew up in Thornton, Colorado and have been working with/babysitting kids since I was 12 years old (23 now). When I was younger, I trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 3 years and coached little kids ages 3-12 for a year, including classes and summer camps. I have had children around me my whole life and truly enjoy the light they bring. I have a degree in psychology with minors in creative writing and business, all of which honestly come in handy when spending time and communicating with the little ones! I always have fun with them making sure to abide by the parents wants first and always try to make a connection with both the child and the parent as I believe this is incredibly important. Interacting with children has always been one of my strengths and I am excited to meet some new faces and go on new adventures!

Brenda $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Brenda, I’m a nurse, a mom and have over 12 years of experience caring for children from newborns to 9 years old. I've worked with families of all sizes, including multiples, twins, and children with disabilities. I'm known for being patient, kind, and trustworthy and I genuinely love engaging with kids through outdoor play, games, arts & crafts, story time, etc. We will have lots of fun! I always aim to leave your home in the same (or better!) condition, and I'm happy to help with light housekeeping like dishes, laundry, and vacuuming. While I do have a cat allergy, I’m comfortable around other animals. I bring both personal and professional experience to the role and would love the opportunity to support your family.

Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CO

Hello! My name is Aidan, and I’m a dedicated caregiver with over 15 years of experience across childcare, pet care, and home services. My approach is centered on providing warm, reliable, and personalized support that meets your unique needs. Childcare Experience: A bit about my background - I’ve been working in childcare for approximately 9 years and have loved every second! Most of my experience is with infants and toddlers as a nanny and preschool teacher assistant, though I’ve also provided care for a wide range of ages through babysitting on the side. I genuinely find joy in the little things that come with childcare - the details matter - especially with little ones! I strive for clear communication when it comes to daily routines, check-ins, and feedback, and I truly value building relationships that emphasize trust and mutual respect. The relationships I’ve formed with the families I’ve worked with are so important to me, and I’m always happy to provide references and any documentation you might need (like a driving record, background check, or CPR/First Aid certification). Pet Care Experience: Over the years, I’ve cared for many pets as part of my nannying work, as well as more unique animals like monkeys! I’m comfortable with tasks like walking dogs, feeding, and providing general care for pets. I understand how much pets are part of the family, and I treat them with the same love and attention. Home Services Experience: I also bring over 15 years of paid experience in cleaning and home services. I’ve organized homes, helped families move, supported daily and weekly upkeep, ran various errands, and even assisted with interior decorating projects. My goal is to keep your home running smoothly while being self-led, so you can focus on the things that matter most to you. Why I Care: I believe that caregiving is about more than just completing tasks—it’s about building relationships and being a supportive, reliable presence in the lives of those I care for. Whether I’m caring for children, pets, or home items, I approach every job with attention to detail, and a genuine love for meeting the needs of others.

“Aidan is extremely professional and reliable. She instinctively knows what needs to be done without asking and she is super friendly and fun! I would highly recommend her and will continue to use her!”

"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."

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)."
