Longmont After School Child Care

Hello, I am a recent college graduate from Colorado State University, with a degree in I/O psychology. My current career is in professional fitness and small business marketing. I have worked for numerous families as both a nanny and babysitter over the past 10 years. I have experience working with infants, up to children 12-14 years of age. I have had the pleasure of caring for special needs children, children with high anxiety and those with specific life style requirements. I have a very creative and health-encouraged style. As being a very active member of the fitness industry, I encourage as much outdoor activity as time allows. The sports that I have experience training/coaching in are soccer, gymnastics, yoga and kick-boxing. Additionally, I cook, am willing to tutor/run errands/light chores, etc. I have always loved kids and have a passion for helping them develop and succeed in life. Please contact me with any questions. Thank you, -Melissa

My experience is very basic. I enjoy working with children, helping them grow and develop. I am a firm believer of homework then play. I am very loyal to my faith and religion and believe in a strong family bond. I like to stay on schedule and be on time for appointments. I am a kid at heart and very laid back but also firm in what needs to be done (will not be easily fooled by puppy dog eyes). I enjoy being outside and find activities to engage in when the time allows it.

I am a caring, energetic, trustworthy person and have a passion for working with kids! I grew up in Longmont and received my bachelors degree from CU Boulder. I have experience working with kids of all ages and I am CPR certified. I also worked for the St. Vrain Valley School district and a non-profit organization with middle and high school students for four years. I look forward to working with your child/children!

Currently, I am looking for part-time and/or occasional childcare and/or house and pet sitting. I have (successfully!) raised one son and for the past nine years and have provided care for two boys (now 9 & 7) and their sister (now 16 months) from birth to present time (very part-time for a neighbor). Over the past 2.5 years, have provided regular and occasional child care for three families--ages 5 months through 9 years of age, including families with multiple children. I have taught computer (educational programs only) and Discovery Science classes after school, volunteered in the classroom during my son's elementary school years, and have coached teams for Odyssey of the Mind as well as was North Region Director for Odyssey of the Mind. For several years, I worked part-time as a teaching assistant at preschools (private and school district). We have had dogs in our family for many years, including a litter of puppies; have no problems with dogs, cats or other small pets. I strongly believe in a healthy and rewarding lifestyle--eating, exercise, discipline--as well as addressing educational needs. I enjoy games of all types and levels, depending on the age of the child(ren) and prefer to entertain the children or provide them with appropriate individual activities/play as opposed to being entertained by the TV. I enjoy observing and participating in the growth of a child in every aspect--cooking, creative play/projects, reading, singing/dancing, etc. I am a mature, energetic, responsible, reliable and nurturing person who thoroughly enjoys children of all ages.

My experience with small children started with my own kids, whom I home schooled. From there, I worked in a church nursery. Then, Montessori Day Care. About 2 years ago, I started working independently, as a Nanny. The Nanny position is much preferred. As it allows me to focus on the development of one or two children. In addition, I consider the Nanny job to be a partnership with the parents.

I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am a mature, caring, and energetic individual, who would love the opportunity to care for your children. During the school year, I am a special education teacher with SVVSD. I am originally from Ireland, have been in the U. S., since 1991, and in Longmont since 2001. I love all that Colorado has to offer! I am both CPR, and First Aid trained. I am available for date nights, weekend time, etc. I hope to hear from you soon. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a "Meet and greet" sometime soon, in anticipation of the aforementioned. Also Very Interested In Providing Coverage For Date Nights, Etc. I Am Able To Run Personal Errands, Etc. Please feel free to message me. Kind regards, Margaret (Maggie)

I have 20+ years of childcare experience. While I was in college in Illinois I was a nanny for several families ranging in age from new born to high school. When I returned home to Colorado I decided to pursue a career as a teacher so I went back to school to get my elementary teaching license. I taught kindergarten for 9 years until I had my sweet baby boy and decided to stay home with him. I love having the opportunity to watch him grow! Our days are filled with make believe, crafts, books and exploring. While staying home with my son I have been a part-time nanny for a family with after school needs. Their situation recently changed and I am available to care for a new family. I look forward to connecting with a new family.

I have tons of experience working with kids of all ages. I used to work in a nursery, I worked for an after school sports program and I've continued babysitting since then for colleagues, friends and neighbors. I love kids and I believe I have the patience, skills and passion to help you take care of your little ones!

I am available for weekends and week nights! My approach to childcare is to foster independence and curiosity while always making myself available to tie some shoes, apply a band aid, warm a bottle of formula and help with math homework. I have experience caring for children ages 3 weeks to 16 years. I was a red cross certified babysitter in high school for neighbors and families in New Jersey, where I grew up. I also worked as an overnight camp counselor with children ages 5-16 for three years in the Poconos. There, I taught creative writing, art, photography and rocketry and assisted with supervising swimming (pool and lake on site) and other outdoor activities. I have a B. A. in Journalism and French from Temple University in Philadelphia, and can accommodate light tutoring or help with homework as well as exposure to a second language! My availability is updated semi-monthly on my Care profile!

Hello, my name is Mary and I am thrilled and honored to have the opportunity to care for and love your children. We just moved from the Western Slope, where I was a licensed home child care provider for 2 1/2 years. My other qualifications include: six years experience as an elementary school teacher (grades K-3), one year as a nanny in Spain, and eight years working in a child care center. I would love to provide letters of recommendation for all of the jobs listed above. Our two little girls (ages 1 and 3) are very excited for me to find some friends for them to play with. My background in elementary education also allows me to help with homework, kindergarten readiness, preschool activities and more if your family is interested. We are so excited to read, create, sing, explore, bake, and use our imaginations with your children!
