Parent Testimonials

Meet Genna Hackley

Founder

When my nephew was born in 2017, my perspective changed forever.

I was overcome by love and this caused me to take stock of what I truly enjoy doing: caring for families. With my 15+ years of childcare experience and my organizing skills (I loved Tetris as a kid), I began specializing as a temporary nanny in Boulder and Denver.

I had more time for my nephew and the freedom to choose my work, going the extra mile for parents and offering their children the same compassion and creativity I give my nephew.

I loved my work and soon I had so many requests, I could only help a fraction of the families myself. I began building our group of childcare providers, assembling the team with an eye towards excellence. To succeed, I utilized my professional background in HR, workplace safety, and program development.

Really impressed with Babysitters of Boulder. Our sitter always shows up on time, always asks good questions about the kids’ routines, and just seems to genuinely know what she’s doing. Usually I spend half of date night checking the baby monitor, this time I honestly felt like I didn’t need to, which never happens. Kids were happy and already asking when she’s coming back. Will definitely book again.

Babysitters of Boulder and our sitter Cynthia were a dream come true! I was traveling from out of state and needed a babysitter for a family wedding reception, and from the very beginning they made the whole process easy. The intake questionnaire was so thorough!!! It really felt like they’d considered every detail a sitter might need to know before even stepping in the door. Cynthia told me she’d read through the profile and details I provided multiple times so she’d be fully prepared, and it showed. She played with my boys, fed them, and got them down to bed without a hitch. I felt completely comfortable with her, and my 7-month-old and 2½-year-old were in wonderful hands. She followed their schedule and also made smart calls on her own when she needed to. Incredible times a million! We feel so lucky to have found them, and I’d recommend Cynthia to anyone.

There were several babysitters available at a wedding in Estes Park and I can't say enough good things. My daughter (5) had an amazing time, and from what I could tell it looked like all of the kids were having a great time. It was quick and easy, and couldn't have worked out better. Shout out to Maria and everyone else working the event, we appreciate you so much!

I hired them to have a babysitting room at my wedding, they were professional and organized getting the event planned. They handled parent comms so I didn't have to and brought all kinds of creative stuff for the kids, I only heard good things.

Babysitters of Boulder has been amazing. Each of the sitters who have cared for our children has been thoughtful, communicative, energetic, creative, responsible, and highly capable. They have rescued us when we needed care on extremely short notice. Most importantly, our children have adored each of them (Kerry, Kayla, Sarah S, Janell). We look forward to continued support from Babysitters of Boulder.
