In my 20s, I started my childcare journey working as a temporary/fill-in nanny through nanny agencies, and I worked for several years as the full-time nanny/mother's helper for a family with 6 children. I have raised and home schooled my own children and have cared for several step-children including one with special needs. I have worked with elementary, middle school, and high school students (including as a camp director, counselor, and staff member). I have a clean driving record, and if I were to transport your children, I would be as careful and attentive to them as I would be with my own. I have taken Red Cross Adult/Infant First Aid/CPR/AED training. I am looking for jobs working with families who have fun together, value responsibility and kindness, and communicate well. I want your kid(s) to feel well cared for, and I think while you are out doing what you need to do, your child(ren) ought to have a really great experience too! I have most recently nannied for a toddler who is now going into full-time pre-k. I have a special place in my heart, and arms, for the very young babies, too. I have experience in home organization and management, 24-hour/overnight childcare (house-sitting and pet-sitting included), childcare in a hotel/BnB setting, as well as caregiving for conventions and the like along with a group of other childcare workers. I have helped my families with food prep, laundry, errands, senior companion care, and caregiving (as well as tutoring) for all ages of children. I’d love to meet you and your child(ren)!! 🥳

Hi, my name is Rachel! I am a licensed social worker who works full-time with children and families involved with Child Protective Services. Supporting kids and helping families navigate challenges is something I’m deeply passionate about, and it’s one of the reasons I’ve continued babysitting throughout my career. Even with a full-time social work role, I still genuinely love spending time with children and being a trusted support for families. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old and have cared for children consistently for more than 15 years. I currently babysit for several families on a date-night basis and have experience with children ranging from 4 months old to 15 years old. Whether I'm caring for an infant, keeping up with energetic toddlers, or helping school-age children with homework and routines, I enjoy adapting to each child's unique personality and needs. My experience includes meal preparation, bath time, bedtime routines, transportation, homework help, outdoor activities, and creating fun, engaging experiences that keep children safe and entertained. Families often describe me as dependable, patient, and easy to communicate with. My work schedule is especially flexible in the mornings, so I'm available to help with school drop-offs and morning routines, and I'm also available for evenings and date nights. As someone who spends every day working with children and families, I understand how important it is to find a caregiver you can trust. My goal is always to provide a safe, nurturing, and reliable presence so parents can feel confident that their children are in good hands. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hi there! My name is Paige and I have just relocated to Denver and am excited to connect with new families! I'm an experienced childcare professional with a passion for creating engaging and enriching experiences for children. My journey in childcare has taken me through a variety of child-centered roles, shaping my skills and understanding of the unique needs of each child. As a coach and educator, I learned the importance of teamwork and communication, skills that are invaluable when caring for children. Guiding young minds to work together not only fosters a positive environment but also encourages personal growth. My time as a camp counselor allowed me to explore experiential learning, incorporating activities that not only entertain but also educate. From nature walks to science experiments, I believe in hands-on experiences that spark curiosity and foster a love for learning. Ski instructing added an element of adventure to my repertoire. Teaching children to navigate the slopes taught me patience and adaptability. I understand the importance of tailoring activities to each child's abilities, ensuring they feel both challenged and supported. This approach carries into my babysitting style, where I create age-appropriate activities that cater to individual interests and developmental stages. Transitioning into the role of a professional caregiver deepened my commitment to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. I prioritize outdoor creative play, recognizing the immense benefits it brings to a child's physical and mental well-being. From arts and crafts under the sun to imaginative play in the backyard, I encourage creativity and self-expression. What sets me apart is my dedication to creating memorable experiences that go beyond traditional childcare. I aim to foster a sense of wonder, instill a love for learning, and promote a healthy lifestyle through engaging activities. My diverse background equips me with a well-rounded approach to childcare, ensuring that every child under my care not only feels safe but also thrives in a world of exploration and imagination!
