A little bit about me
I have a BM (Bachelor of Music) in music performance from The University of Alabama, as well as an MM (Master of Music) in music performance from CSU.
I play the French Horn in the Longmont Symphony as well as teach private lessons and play gigs here and there for various organizations.
The environment of a large child care center is not for me. With five babies to one adult I’ve been stretched pretty thin at my job and want to be able to give my full attention and aid to any child in my care. I am CPR/First Aid certified and vaccinated as well as boosted against COVID-19. I am more than willing to do light housekeeping (laundry, dishes, dusting, vacuuming, etc.) and simple meal prep. I simply adore children and believe there is no such thing as a bad child. Every child has their own individual needs and I pride myself on finding their specific needs and fulfilling them day in and day out.

A little bit about me
I’m a 19-year-old Colorado native and was a behavioral therapist with experience supporting individuals aged 1–17 with autism and behavioral challenges. I provide reliable client transportation, excel in communication with coworkers, clients, and families, and thrive in environments where I connect with people from all walks of life. I also have 5 years of experience in babysitting, pet care, and housekeeping, I’ve also led engaging programs, games, lessons, and activities tailored to children’s developmental needs. From planning educational sessions to fostering creativity through play and encouraging teamwork, I create spaces where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I bring patience, responsibility, and a nurturing approach to every role, and I’m a fast, hands-on learner who values growth, compassion, and making a difference. My goal is to continue helping those in need, build financial independence, and explore my purpose as I transition into adulthood.

Hi! My name is Londyn Eiring, and I’m 20 years old with a strong passion for caring for others. I’ll be starting nursing school in May 2026, and I’ve worked as a CNA and a lifeguard, in addition to over 8 years of babysitting experience. I also currently work at a child daycare and development center. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I come from a big family full of little ones—so I’m no stranger to the energy and care kids need! I also have experience working with children who have special needs, including helping care for my cousin. I truly love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids to grow and thrive.
