Booked by 3 families in Wheat Ridge, 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.

Hey, my name is Ashley! I love working with kids and have spent time caring for children as a nanny, tutor, substitute teacher, as well as teaching kids art, yoga, and English as a second language classes. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a compassionate, empathetic, and understanding personality that lends itself well to child care. I also have a ton of experience pet sitting. I find jobs relating to and caring for others to be fun and rewarding. In my spare time, I like to play guitar, hike, paint, and listen to music.

Blair 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been a sitter/nanny for over 8 years in the front range. I am flexible, dependable, and an engaging babysitter. I love to be creative and silly with the kids. I try to make fun games and arts projects. I follow the Montessori method and allow kids to chose their own adventure while I create a safe environment to do so. I am open to helping with other jobs around the house and am comfortable with pets. Work History: - Toddler Montessori teaching - Date-Night, House & Dog Sitting - Home Health Care Aide - Children's Ski Instructor - Experience with children with developmental disabilities

Blair has been an amazing babysitter for our 8-month-old. She is caring, kind, and playful and our daughter is delighted whenever Blair arrives to spend time with her! Our dog loves her, too! She is such a huge help and a lovely person. Highly recommend Blair for your childcare (and petcare) needs.

Booked by 1 family in Wheat Ridge, CO

Hi! My name is Payton and I’m a freshman at the University of Alabama. I offer childcare, pet care, and household help. I’ve been caring for children from infants to age 11 since I was 14, and I truly love spending time with kids. My experience includes school and activity pick-ups, helping with routines, or just hanging out at home. I’m also comfortable cooking, cleaning, running errands, and assisting with day-to-day household tasks. I adore dogs—I have two of my own—so I’m always happy to care for pets or work with families who have them. I look forward to helping your family feel supported!

"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)."
