A little bit about me

I moved out here from Montana last May after graduating college and am finally finding my footing. I currently work at a clinic for kids with Autism, but I want to continue to do more. I used to nanny while I was in college. Due to my job, I can work anytime after 5:30pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends, and am also willing to do over nights if necessary. I am just here to help support you and your family in any way I can!

Bree V. - Seeking Work in Lakewood

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Lakewood, CO: Bree V.

Hello I’m Bree!! I have been babysitting for a few years now and was working at my first day care until I was laid off due to Covid-19. I am now working at my second preschool. I have experience with younger aged kids ranging from a newborn up to 9 year olds. My child care experience consisted of watching kids in a church every Friday night making sure they were fed, playing with them, taking them to the bathroom when they needed to go, changed them, they had tons of stuff to entertain them while I was watching them, putting them down for naps, cleaning them if they were messy. Watching kids made me understand the care of kids more and it was a great experience to not only care for others but build a strong bond with them. I am CPR certified, vaccinated, and have my own transportation! Hope you’re doing well and staying healthy. 😊
