My name is Jayme and I am a 22 year old Chemistry student at CSU. I love reading books and crafting, and tend to be outgoing. I spent most of high school babysitting for family and family friends, and miss it (1yr-12yrs old). I would be happy to watch over, play with, or help any kiddos, and would be even more excited to be able to create a bond!

A little bit about me…
My name is Ella Lichfield. I’m 21 years old and currently entering my senior year at Colorado State University, where I’m majoring in accounting. I began babysitting at age 13 and grew up helping care for my two younger siblings. Since then, I’ve worked as a full-time nanny for two summers, including one summer as a live-in nanny. I also coached middle school volleyball during my senior year of high school, which helped me build strong leadership and communication skills with kids.
I’m responsible, organized, caring, and open-minded. I’m CPR certified and have a reliable car, so transportation is never an issue. My approach to childcare focuses on safety, creativity, and emotional support. I love engaging kids in fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and story time, while also helping with homework and daily routines. I strive to create a warm and structured environment where children feel secure, supported, and free to be themselves.
