Booked by 5 families in Wheat Ridge, CO

Dependable, caring, and experienced childcare provider with several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’ve worked as a full-time nanny and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children feel supported and excited to learn. I’m known for being patient, reliable, and easy to communicate with, and I naturally build strong, trusting connections with both children and parents. I am CPR and First Aid trained and always prioritize safety and consistency. I bring a positive, calm energy into every home and take pride in providing thoughtful, high-quality care. I’m also flexible with scheduling and rates and happy to work with families to find what fits best. Knowledge in child/adolescent mental health and psychology. Looking forward to working with you! New to the app.

Hi there! I'm Karen, but I go by K. I'm an experienced nanny with a passion for working with children. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for kids ranging from newborns to 13 years old. My favorite part of being a nanny is helping children grow in all aspects of their lives-socially, emotionally, and intellectually. I believe in the power of guided play and play-based learning to encourage development and creativity. As a native Spanish speaker, I'd also be happy to share my language skills if that's something you're interested in.

I'm not Cesar Millan, but I have a German shepherd, and my favorite pet's name was Bear at indoor outdoor cat from Alaska. Good at cleaning and the best and cheapest handy man.

Booked by 2 families in Wheat Ridge, CO

Hi! My name is Lauren , and I’m 18 years old looking for babysitting, dog sitting, and nannying positions. I have been babysitting for 5 years with children between ages 0 and 13. I am able to care for as many kids as needed, and I love doing activities like drawing, playing, going outside on adventures, and more! I was a math tutor for a year, and an assistant dance teacher for two years with kids ages 7 to 12, so I love getting creative and supporting education. I’m also able to house and dog sit, so I’d love to get to know more families!

I raised 4 daughters while I was an emergency room nurse. The best part of my life was watching my daughters grow .Now I am waiting for grandchildren but my daughters are too busy living their lives. So now I love to nanny babies, toddlers and children of all ages. Life is such an adventure!

“Nancy was such a help for us and a delight for my daughter, who immediately asked for her to come again. She even cleaned up after our dog, who got sick in the house. She was prompt, responsive and warm. Absolutely will book 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)."
