Hi! My name is Bethie. I love babies and kids! I like to work hands-on with them in art projects, games, reading stories, crafts, singing, cooking, cleaning, etc. I don't tend with the TV or the internet. I grew up with many siblings and I've done babysitting since I was 10. Childcare comes naturally with me! I've done countless on call jobs as well as scheduled daily ones. I've also had countless nanny experiences being the child's mom for weeks or months at a time. I've also been a teacher for grades 1-4 in a home school setting. And I loved it! I was also a PE teacher for 4 years. I have experience with babies to teens, as well as multiples. I have a HS diploma and was trained in First Aid and CPR. I am very patient, scheduled, organized, and on-time as well as being honest, active, and loving. I love and teach kids as if they were my own!

We cannot day enough about Bethie. The kids love her like a mother. They do arts and crafts together and she is really interactive with my 3 children. She is good with all ages and knows how to keep the kids entertained. She's very active, jumps on the trampoline, explores and plays games with them. I tell Her she's like Mary Poppins. She's always on time, keeps things tidy and is really good with following rules and instructions for the children. I would recommend her and give her 10 stars if i could. 

Hello, fellow parents, teachers, and caretakers! You made an excellent choice in viewing Colleen's profile, and if you hire her as your nanny, you will be making an even better choice -- one you will never regret and forever be grateful for.  I have known Colleen for upwards of 20 years, and I can vouch for her high moral character and her sweet, unselfish, and caring nature. She is a natural with little children, and because they can feel that she truly loves and cares about them, they all naturally love her back. But she doesn't just tend them, she teaches them -- and in such creative and enjoyable ways that they are always eager to learn. (Her amazing bag of craft supplies, learning tools, and fun activities would put Mary Poppins to utter shame -- not to mention the car trunk full of whatever doesn't fit in her bag.) There is only good to know and good to say about Colleen. If you hire her, it will be one of the greatest gifts you could ever give your children.

She is very dependable and punctual. Our kids loved her and she is great with children. She is very patient and she would actually interact with children, teach them while playing. I would highly recommend her!

Our son LOVES when Colleen (aka Bethie) comes to visit. She bonded with him immediately and he always has fun when she is around. She brings her goodie bag full of new things for him to play with in addition to all of his toys. He is learning to love arts & crafts too! She is dependable, a good communicator, and always on time. We will continue to utilize her as long as she is available. 

We currently use Bethie as our full time nanny and she is absolutely amazing! She has become part of our family. My boys love her. We love her. She has not missed a day, she shows up early every time, she does educational activities as well as lots of fun activities with them, like going to to the park, pet store, planting, playing outside, reading, playing cars, etc. My boys ask if she's coming over on weekends because they have so much fun with her. She's been an absolute blessing to our family. 

You can trust her with your kids, your pets, and your house. You can depend on her. She treats your kids like they are her own! It's hard to sum her up other than she is truly the best! 

Ms. Colleen a.k.a Ms. Bethie was a sitter to our family for our 4 year old and she was absolutely amazing! She is very kind, patient, and very dependable, from the first day that she took care of my son, he loved her! She's very natural when it comes to kids, she cared for my son as if he were her own, making sure he was ok when she dropped him at school. Every morning she would do activities with him before school and had him very well entertain with educational projects and keeping it fun! she is very professional, very punctual... she is most certainly with out a doubt on top of the list and the best sitter I have ever encountered ! Best decision for your family :)

Hands down the best babysitter and we have had a few since we have moved 5 times in the last few years. She is a blessing and we are thankful for the times she is able to watch our kids. 

Colleen was fabulous!! My kids adored her and have been asking when she gets to babysit them again! I was able to go to work and know that my kids were with a responsible adult! She was early, professional, caring, attentive, reliable, and she even brought some supplies for a craft with the kids. She is at the top of my list!

The perfect nanny. Colleen worked great with my kids. She cleaned, cooked, sewed, and did fun educational projects with all my girls. I would defiantly recommend her and plan on using her services in the future.

Colleen is the best baby sitter we've ever had. She is very kind and comes up with very ingenious ways of teaching the kids the letters of the alphabet as well as numbers.

We have hired Colleen W. for our grandkids and she was an amazing babysitter, the boys did so many activities outside, she taught them about animals, bugs, flowers and birds. 
Our grandkids were better behaved as well as better mannered because of her. 
She is soft spoken, loving and attentive to the children's needs.

Colleen is the kind of babysitter that I have been looking for a long time - good communication with prompt reply and follow up, always punctual and reliable, very good with children! My 2 1/2 year old son is comfortable with her from day one. She keeps him engaged with many activities such as reading, drawing, making craft, playing in the garden, making cookies etc. she is definitely one of the highest quality babysitters anyone can ask for. 


Colleen is a reliable, honest and a very patient caregiver.  She loves kids and they naturally draw to her. 
She has had several years of experience and at times been in great demand. Children just love her!

Colleen currently works for us, she is extremely reliable, punctual, patient and fun. She takes care of our twin boys full time filled with learning activities, fun yet educational every day chores! She has been the best babysitter we have ever had.
