Find a wedding babysitter in Arvada, CO

Hi there, my name is Rachael. I started working in childcare eight years ago and love it so much! My favorite age group are toddlers but I have experience with all ages. I’m looking for either part time or full time position, with a minimum of a one year commitment, and my rates start at $28/hour for one child. I’m CPR certified, have my own car, and have taken online courses in child development. My focus is on giving your child a safe, routine focused, and creative space to learn and grow into a wonderful person. I love baking, doing crafts, pretend play, and special weekly outings when appropriate. I’m firm but kind, and will work with you on any challenges your child may come to. In my personal time I love to cook, hike and read. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family!

I’m kind and caring and follow instructions, I do my service to the best of my ability whether it’s watching someone’s fur baby or watching over someone’s home.

I’m a retired public school special education teacher living in Lakewood. My references are impeccable from my recent nanny placements, including infant care. My CPR and first aid certifications are current and have all Covid related immunizations.

Hello! I have plenty experience with infants, toddlers, young children and pets. I have months of experience working with an infant who required oral meds for reflux and thrush. This caused her to rarely sleep (reflux woke her up) and was up every 30 min most nights. I am no stranger to holding babies while they nap (if needed and preferred by parents). I love engaging in play, learning games, etc. I believe in gentle but firm corrections. I do NOT believe in yelling or intimidation tactics and will not book with you if that is expected. Children need a safe space to grow and develop properly. As for pets I have years of expierence. I have a German shepherd myself who is trained. I have worked at doggie daycares/boarding facilities. I understand a fair amount of dog body language, how to break up fights (depending on size of both dogs), how to give meds, and can do some light training if needed. I also have expierence with cats, rabbits, ferrets, and rats. I can care for certain farm animals if they are friendly. My knowledge on reptiles/amphibians is very limited outside of frogs and turtles. I have my own house cleaning business and can work that in for a different rate depending on what is needed. Message me for questions!

I am a certified elementary school teacher, and a certified preschool lead teacher/director. I've taught in public school, private school, and homeschool (co-ops and my own children)! I've lived in Denver my whole life and know the city very well. I am a mother of 6 and live in Central Denver. I am creative, fun, reliable, responsible, and not easily fazed! I love children and understand the dynamics of a busy household and unexpected needs that might come up.
