A little bit about me

I am a proud mom of six and grandmother of one. I homeschooled all six of my children who each grew into amazing and accomplished adults. Although I have been a successful General Manager and Director of Operations for the past 13 years, I was happiest when I was raising children. I find myself in a position to be able to share my experience and love for nurturing and teaching children. I am dependable, patient and passionate about creating a loving, secure and encouraging environment. I would love to bring that same care and attention to another family as a nanny.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Ashlyn, a warm, reliable, and experienced nanny based in Fort Collins. I’ve been caring for children since 2018, focusing primarily on infants and toddlers (2 months–3 years). My approach is attentive, engaging, and developmentally informed, with an emphasis on age-appropriate activities such as tummy time, sensory play, reading, biking, swimming, baking, and custom word games for older kids.

I currently work full-time for a family in Windsor (Tuesday–Friday, 7 a.m.–4 p.m.) through the end of May, and I’m looking for a full-time summer position, with the possibility to continue longer.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, drive a safe 2024 Prius, and can assist with light household tasks. I have experience managing severe allergies and administering medications (Zyrtec, Benadryl, EpiPen, MiraLAX), am pet-friendly, and only accept positions with families whose children are fully vaccinated according to pediatric guidelines.
