Hi families! My name is Kristin, and I’ve been a professional nanny for over 20 years, caring for children from newborn to age 13. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, trained in infant care. I am passionate about providing safe, loving, and engaging environment for every child I take care of. Whether we’re building a blanket fort, tackling homework, or exploring the outdoors. I believe in showing up with patients, creativity, and consistency. I drive and have my own vehicle, so I’m happy to help with school pickup, after school activities, or weekend adventures. Families say I’m dependable, upbeat, and quick to become part of the team. I show up on time, come prepared, and follow through, whether that’s updating parents, organizing routines, or stepping I. When plans change. I’m happy to bring references from the wonderful families I’ve worked with over the years. I look forward to connecting with local families looking for someone experienced, warm, and genuinely committed to your child’s care.

I have over 30 years of experience caring for and working with children of all ages, and kids have truly been a huge part of my life! I’m a mom of three girls who I homeschooled, a longtime children’s theater teacher and director, and a Kids Ministry Director at my church. I’m experienced, dependable, patient, creative, and very comfortable managing everything from one-on-one childcare to groups of children. I love crafts, games, imaginative play, reading, being outside, and finding ways to connect with each child’s personality. Most importantly, I want parents to feel completely comfortable leaving their kids with me and for their kids to feel safe, cared for, and genuinely excited to see me again!

Hi! My name is Victoria! I am a 19 year old toddler teacher at primrose schools. I am currently not working because my school isn't opening until march 3rd. I am available everyday until then and after that, weekends and evenings. I love being able to bond with a child in their own space where they are comfortable, this makes it easier for them to feel comfortable with me faster than in a different area. I have been driving for 3 years with a clean driving record. I have a Mazda cx30 so l would be able to fit 2 maybe 3 car seats in my car. I am level 2 lead certified and have all of the required certifications to work in a school here in Colorado! I just moved here from Texas and I'm looking for regular babysitting opportunities

I lead the special needs ministry for a large church. We rely on weekly help from sitters we book on SitterTree. The app makes it easy to connect with sitters in our area who have experience working with children with disabilities. We now have several Favorites who we book consistently. SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our ministry.
