A little bit about me

Hi! My names Sam Russo and I grew up in the suburbs of New York City. I am currently a senior at CU Boulder with a major in art and marketing. I've been babysitting since I was 15, as well as offering private lessons (fieldhockey) to kids from elementary school up to highschool. I love art, hiking, snowboarding, music, and am excited to start babysitting again!

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Fernanda! I’m a nurturing and dependable nanny who loves helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. Whether it’s creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with routines, I focus on creating a safe and positive space where children feel comfortable and cared for. I’m 19 years old and currently a pre-med student at the University of Colorado Boulder, with aspirations of becoming a pediatrician. I have very open availability during the summer, and while my schedule is a bit more limited during the school year due to classes, I’m happy to work with families to find consistent times that fit.

A little bit about me

I've been a nanny for nearly 9 years and have cared for children of all ages, including newborn twins, infants with feeding tubes, toddler nanny shares, overnights, and families with multiples.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, and can provide glowing references from past families. I am also comfortable and experienced with driving children to and from school, appointments, and extracurricular activities.

I bring house management experience, helping with family schedules, grocery shopping, laundry, tidying, driving children to and from activities, and keeping the household running smoothly day-to-day.

I’m reliable, flexible, outdoorsy, creative, and love building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I’m all about jumping into the fun (and sometimes the chaos!), whether that’s getting messy with crafts, being goofy during dance parties, or creating calm, consistent routines that help kids feel secure and loved.

A little bit about me

I’m a 24-year-old photographer and a very curious, creative, and adventurous person. I’m a big outdoorsy person and love camping, hiking, biking, climbing, and exploring new places. I’m happiest when I’m outside, discovering somewhere new, or going on a little adventure.

I also love music and have always enjoyed playing it myself. I play guitar and bass, and music is a big part of my everyday life. Creativity in general is a huge part of who I am. Besides photography, I love painting, drawing, making things, and working on all kinds of creative projects. I’m always coming up with something new to make or learn.

I would describe myself as easygoing, patient, curious, and adaptable. I love trying new things and I’m always excited to learn from the people around me. I also really enjoy spending time with kids because I love their imagination, curiosity, and energy. I think there’s something really special about seeing the world through their perspective.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Laura. I am 32 and live in Boulder, CO.

I love kids and consider myself a kid at heart. I have experience working with kids infants-teenagers. I have been a highly involved and adventurous Aunti of 3 kiddos for 13 years... and consider myself to be one of the best Aunti's out there.

Although I haven't officially nannied for a family (other then for a family with teenagers) I have experience babysitting, teaching K-6 & day care.

I am happy to give you my sisters info as a reference to my "Best Aunti" claim. :)

I have always been good with kids as they bring out the inner child in me. They are my favorite people to hang out with when I get the chance to. I also have experience with pet care if you need extra help with your furry family as well.

Other hobbies: I love photography, yoga, holistic health, nature, hiking, camping and living a mellow lifestyle.

I would love to be considered to work with you and your family.
