Booked by 1 family in Wheat Ridge, CO

I recently relocated to Colorado from Texas with my husband, following the successful sale of my business. As a mother of four grown children and seven grandchildren, I possess a depth of life experience, I'm eager to emphasize that I'm still young and enthusiastic about the opportunities that lie ahead. Throughout my life, I've been driven by a passion for caregiving, which has encompassed a range of roles, from neighborhood babysitting to supporting my mother with MS and my grandfather after his stroke. I'm excited to offer my services, which encompass a broad spectrum of responsibilities, including household management, cooking, cleaning, and errands. My true passion, however, lies in caring for children, where I can nurture and support their development through engaging activities such as reading, games, and outdoor pursuits. I'm also deeply passionate about nature, wildlife, and gardening, and I take great joy in sharing these interests with my grandchildren and others. With my extensive domestic skills, life experience, and heartfelt approach, I'm confident in my ability to provide exceptional care to your loved ones.

Jennifer was great with our daughter! Very communicative and would highly recommend!

Michelle $23 per hour for 1 child

Hey there! My name is Michelle, but most people call me "Flower." I am a super fun and outgoing girl, with over 18 years of experience in childcare! I've worked with all ages, and have ranged from a "date night" sitter to a full-time nanny before! I love getting creative with the kiddos, I think a child's imagination paired with mine, makes for a really fun and exciting new game! And if it's not play time, I'm also very on top of making sure that school work is done, kids are in bed on time, and all chores are done. I also used to work at a retirement home for my first job, and love hanging out with seniors! They have so much wisdom to learn from and it is something I truly enjoy. There's no hiding that I am a total animal lover of all kinds! It has been filling my cup lately to watch / take care of dogs specifically because we recently lost our beautiful dog, Alice. Animal cuddles are so healing! I also used to have a bearded dragon so I am familiar with taking care of reptiles as well. I hope that I am the right match to help you with your care needs! Feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks!

"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)."
