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 Kadi. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I am primarily looking for a full time childcare position at this time though! I enjoy being a nanny/babysitter. I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since high school. My responsibilities have included transporting children to and from activities, preparing meals and snacks, crafts, and tidying up the home. I am also available to work as a household assistant. I can complete food prep, clean, and run errands. I have a large family so I have always been surrounded by children and have been assisting my family members with childcare since I was young, but especially during the pandemic. I enjoy animals, but have the most experience caring for dogs and cats. I am happy to work with families who have either or both dogs and cats. I am open to other animals, but I have limited experience outside dogs and cats. Due to personal family matters after my last nannying job, I had to take some time off to focus on said personal matters. I am now looking forward to entering back into the childcare world, and I am looking forward to hearing from you to discuss my experience! Thank you!

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!

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.

"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)."
