Hello everyone! My name is Kelli. I am a professional nanny, and I am very experienced with infants & toddlers. More about me: I am CPR, AED, and Basic First Aid Certified (Issued: July 2024). I am lead infant teacher and lead toddler teacher qualified & have done both, working in two different early childhood learning centers. I also have my Bachelor's Degree from the University of Denver (graduated in June 2024). Read below to find out more about my personality! I'd describe my personality as patient, calm, and kind. I like working with kids because I love seeing them learn (& they teach me things too!) I started working with kids seriously when I began college. I have since graduated with my BA from the University of Denver and am transitioning into professional nannying! In my spare time, I like to read, go hiking, take care of my plants, and learn new things! One thing you should know about me is I am a gentle and sensitive person, which is why I work well with children. My skills include tutoring, infant care, and giving the best hugs!

Kelli was very thorough and asked questions to better understand our schedule and our kids’ needs. She is very sweet and our kids loved her!

Nursing background | CPR & First Aid certified | 5+ years experience Hi! My name is Laira, and I am a caring, reliable, and patient caregiver with 5 years of experience working with children in the U. S. and Brazil. I have a nursing background and CPR/First Aid training, so safety is always my top priority. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I enjoy creating fun and educational activities such as outdoor play, crafts, reading, and learning games. I am organized, calm, and responsible, and I always respect household rules and family routines. Communication is very important to me, and I like to keep parents updated about their child's day. I am bilingual (English and Portuguese), comfortable with pets, and can help with light cleaning, meal prep, and errands. I am looking for a kind family and a long-term opportunity.

I highly recommend Laira as a babysitter. She worked for me and was absolutely wonderful in every way. Laira is incredibly reliable, always punctual, and someone I could fully trust with my child. She has a natural ability with children, kind, patient, and attentive. My child felt comfortable and happy around her, which gave me great peace of mind. Laira is also very responsible and professional; she follows instructions carefully while also using her own good judgment when needed. Beyond basic care, she truly engages with children in a positive and nurturing way, creating a safe and loving environment. I would confidently recommend her to any family looking for a caring and dependable babysitter.

Hi! My name is Courtney and I love helping others. I have a passion for nannying, pet sitting and everything in between. I’ve nannied for all age ranges and worked at a summer camp throughout my college years. I have a 6 year old nephew who I spend most weekends with and overall love being around kids. Many of the families I’ve previously nannied for I’m still in touch with and enjoy seeing how the kids have grown up. I also love animals. I have a Pyrenees mixed named Millie who goes everywhere she can with me and loves to adventure. I’ve worked on farms, at wolf sanctuaries and everything in between. I dog walk and pet sit for many families in the Denver area. I'm experienced in pet care from puppies to seniors and am certified in pet first aid! I would love to meet your fur babies and when they're with me I'll love them as if they're my own.

Courtney is reliable, friendly, and truly cares for your pets! I would love to work with Courtney 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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"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)."
