Hello! My name is Jolyne, I'm a student on hiatus at CU Boulder and looking for nanny work here in Boulder or adjacent areas. I have previous experience as a full time nanny for a child from four months to two years of age. I also have informal experience taking care of older children from age three to six, pet sitting for cats dogs and exotics, and as a house cleaner. I prefer a firm but gentle caretaking approach and love focusing on ways to engage a child's development. I have experience planning educational activities, development exercises for skills like sitting and crawling, day trips and casual excursions, meal planning, arts and crafts, and more! I worked with my previous child on multilingual comprehension including basic Spanish and ASL. I am also open to school pick ups, other driving needs, as well as tutoring. I do have some experience with kids with special needs, and have experienced learning difficulties myself that's provided me better perspective. Previous positions have required me to plan and make meals, as well as wash dishes and laundry, do basic tidying, and even deep clean the home. As mentioned I am open to pet care, including walks, litter cleanup, feedings, cage care, and more. Please let me know if there's any other specialized skills you may require and if you're willing to teach me. I love fostering new generations and lead with an excited, compassionate, and patient approach. I love kids of all ages and am willing to be flexible based on the child's and family's needs. I would really appreciate you reaching out if I seem like a good fit to discuss your needs and a meetup with your family : - )

I currently spend my evenings and weekends teaching children between the ages of 2.5-16 how to ride horses. I have in the past taken care of two boys for a family, that I’ve known since they were born and are now 3 & 5 years old. I have experience taking care of newborns and toddlers along with experience with middle schoolers and young teens.
