A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Jenny! I am 25 years old and have lived in Colorado for a year now. While in college, I worked for a church that had childcare opportunities available to cover throughout the year. When I moved to Colorado my first job was working as a Registered Behavior Technician, where I worked with all ages of children of the Autism Spectrum. My jobs have consisted of children for a while now. I love all their different personalities. I also have a knack for math and will help the kiddos conquer any subject they have homework on. Thank you for reading!

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Tristin! I am a current college student going for a degree in psychology and ultimately want to become a child's therapist! I am doing school completely online so I have a very flexible schedule. I have always had a passion for kids and would love to be a part of your child's life in a meaningful way that inspires, teaches, and motivates them! I love animals and wouldn't mind helping around the house/ meal prepping.
A little about me: I have two dogs, a husky and a mini Australian shepherd. When I am not studying, I am either drawing or enjoying time outside in nature.

I know techniques for helping children with their nervous systems and am legally certified in all necessary legal trainings to be a childcare provider, from my previous job. I am pleased to help with household needs as well, meal prep, cleaning, laundry, etc.

She has vast experience including this neighborhood church nursery and an inner city therapeutic preschool. She has a sweet and calm demeanor with a great attitude."

Nanny Avery
"Avery was wonderful with our newborn, 2, and 4 year olds. She was very helpful around the house and very reliable and trustworthy. We went on vacation with her twice and she made traveling with the kids so easy, especially with our newborn. We relocated so we had to lose her but we miss her everyday!!"

They loved her and would ask for her all the time. She is engaging, fun, trustworthy, caring and a pleasure to have in our home. We were so sad when we had to say goodbye. Really can’t recommend her enough!!!"
