A little bit about me
Hi there! I am a senior graduating in May from CU Boulder and have been babysitting since I was 15! I consistently babysat for a family for 2 years here in Boulder but now I work at the hospital part time so I am just looking for drop in babysitting. I am very bubbly and out going. Always have a smile on my face and try to have a fun time! I am a fan of getting outside for walks/parks when the weather is nice or even staying in to play a fun game if not. I have a car so can drive to adventures, do school pick up or help run errands.

A little bit about me
My name is Grace Doherty.
A little bit about myself, I have had recent infant experience. My boss at my current job, (a day program for adults with disabilities in Wheat Ridge), had a child in Oct. 2021 and I have been helping out from infancy to now over 1.5 years old. I absolutely love it!
I have a background in caretaking for over 7+ years ranging from all ages and disabilities.
I am looking for a new opportunity closer to me in Boulder rather than Wheat Ridge due to the commute.

Hi! Im McKenna, a 20 year old student at CU Boulder. I am originally from Georgia. I love the outdoors; camping, hiking, skiing. I have a dog named Frisco who loves the outdoors just as much as me. In my free time I enjoy reading, writing, and painting.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Austin and I'm currently a student at CU Boulder. I'd describe myself as an introverted extrovert - I love quiet time at home with my two sweet cats, Butters and Lola, but also really enjoy being with others. When I'm not studying, I enjoy reading, watching shows, doing arts and crafts, and being outside with friends or family.

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Matt and I have been working with kids for over a decade by sharing my passion for climbing, learning, and exploring as an outdoor climbing guide, climbing coach, and head routesetter. I have worked with such companies as AVID4Adventure and ABC Kids Climbing. I have a belief that kids are much smarter than they are given credit for and my role as a mentor is to provide a safe and encouraging environment for them to flourish, grow, and explore their passions. When kids have a strong support network and the ability to be themselves, they will flourish and do amazing things!
