A little bit about me
A career nanny with over a decade of experience, I strive to inspire children to explore the world with an open mind and compassionate heart, approaching each day as a chance to learn and grow. I encourage all children in my care to build confidence in themselves through developmentally-appropriate, child-led activities.
I often feel like I understand children better than I do adults. The ways that kid brains work and the unique things they come up with are some of my favorite things. I like talking to them about whatever bits of the world they’re curious about, and I talk to them at their level while treating them with the respect that they deserve.
I am non-binary, and use they/them pronouns. This is something I insist on with parents, and try to gently nudge kids into. I am fully covid vaccinated, and require this from families as well.

"At the start of our time with Keegan, our daughter was 3 months old and the other child in the share was 8 months old. Keegan was able to juggle each girl’s schedule and specific care needs, despite different sleep schedules and developmental stages. They diligently tracked naps, feedings, and medications in an app to help all families stay informed of how the girls were doing during the day.
Now that the girls are older, Keegan works to ensure they play outside, make crafts, go to events, explain feelings, vocalize preferences, and more! They excel at planning fun activities daily so the girls get engaging experiences and socialization with other children. They helped the girls with major milestones like walking, potty training, and first words.
Keegan is also incredibly reliable. They communicate in advance about holidays and time off so we aren’t left scrambling and they rarely, if ever, need unexpected time off for sick days. We will miss Keegan!"

"Anna finds fun to have with the kids, she is creative and gets the kids to be respectful and also have fun. She cleans and cooks and is extremely knowledgeable about allergies. Both my kids are blessed with extremely difficult allergies to deal with and she always has the perfect food for them. She is also happy to do cooking for me as I often get off work without having eaten. I trust her to drive in the snow with my car and my kids. I hope that another family can take her on and offer her a good family to have fun with."

"Es un honor para mí recomendar a Julieth como niñera. Durante los meses que estuvo con nosotros, demostró ser excepcional en su rol. No solo cuidaba a mis hijos, sino que también los ayudaba a crecer y aprender a través de actividades creativas y enriquecedoras. Tiene una habilidad natural para crear un ambiente positivo y seguro, lo que les permitió a mis hijos sentirse cómodos y felices. Su nivel de responsabilidad y compromiso superó mis expectativas, siempre estaba dispuesta a ayudar en lo que fuera necesario y nunca dudo en ir más allá para asegurar el bienestar de mis hijos.

A little bit about me
A 33-year old living in Aurora with my husband and animals. :) I babysat and nannied full-time during high school, through college, and for a few years after college. I have spent the last 8 years working in mental health (with teenagers and at a crisis center); I’m looking to get back into nannying now before going to nursing school in a couple of years!
My educational background is in psychology, with a special emphasis on child development
I love talking and laughing with kids, entertaining their thoughts and ideas—seeing where they take us. Coming up with fun, creative things to do no matter where we are. Spending time outside everyday and getting movement in is a must. I love animals and music and crafts. I’m comfortable taking kids on trips to museums/zoos/pools/outings. And I think it’s important to keep open communication ongoing in any professional relationship, and all throughout the day especially when working with someone else’s children.

"Mirna was excellent! She was great with baby Kenzo! She took care of him like he was her own! Mirna was also so helpful around the house with simple chores, unloading dishwasher, folding laundry and doing laundry for Kenzo! Mirna was always on time in the morning and very flexible with our adjusting work schedules! I can't say enough good things about her! She was the best and our family will miss her so much!"

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Mikayla, and I’ve been babysitting for about eight years. Over that time, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children of different ages and personalities, and it has truly become something I love. Helping kids—whether it’s with homework, daily routines, or simply being someone they can laugh and feel comfortable around—is something that brings me a lot of joy.
I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on creating a safe, positive environment. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through activities, games, and conversations that make them feel supported and understood. My goal is always to help in any way possible and to make sure both the children and parents feel at ease.

A little bit about me
Hello, I’m Riah! 😊
I’m a compassionate, dependable, and energetic caregiver with a genuine love for children and creating meaningful connections with them. To me, being a nanny is about more than simply keeping children safe—it’s about creating a warm, nurturing environment where they feel comfortable being themselves, exploring the world, learning new things, and knowing they have someone they can trust.
I have experience working in daycare settings, along with a background in healthcare. My healthcare experience has taught me to be extremely attentive to details, remain calm under pressure, and communicate clearly at all times
Most importantly, I want the children I care for to feel safe, loved, heard, and encouraged while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in caring and capable hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family, learn what’s important to you, and become someone you can truly rely on. I look forward to hopefully hearing from you soon

Hey guys! My name is Roger Johns and I am a student at Colorado State University pursuing an online degree in Psychology. I have 7+ years of experience working with the special needs community as a head camp counselor/activities coordinator, babysitter, behavioral therapist, and friend for kids aged 2-18 :) I have 8 years of experience as a babysitter for typical kiddos too, mainly the ages of 4-12. I love getting outside and playing sports, getting food, walking/hiking, swimming, and other things like going to the zoo/aquarium. These are all things that I would love to do as a babysitter as well! I'm a true kid at heart, outgoing, social, and have always loved working with kids. I have experience helping with remote learning (zoom/teams), am reliable, and dedicated to the families I work with. I look forward to getting to know you :)

"I had the pleasure of supervising Mr. Johns, while he was a Registered Behavior Technician, for Hopebridge Autism Therapy Clinic. Roger could always be counted on to begin each session with a positive attitude, have a great rapport with every kiddo he came in contact with, and genuinely enjoy his job. He always had a positive attitude with clients and co-workers, and parents absolutely loved him. He was reliable, and consistent, and took any and all feedback very well. I believe Mr. Johns would be an asset to any family he worked with. I would absolutely supervise him again."
