We are a professional staffing firm. We ensure that your request is paired with a CPR-Certified, screened and experienced sitter. We provide a substitute, in the rare event that your sitter needs to cancel.

Each of our caregivers have 5 years of experience or more, maintain CPR Certification, and complete a personal interview, references check, background check, and driving record check, to become part of our team.

We value reliability, educational play, and outdoor time, and we are committed to open communication and accountability with clients and staff. The best care happens when agencies, caregivers, and families work together with mutual respect.

Our team standard is: leave it better than you found it. We are happy to wipe kitchen countertops, fold children’s laundry, put all of the dishes in the dishwasher, and tidy the playroom, even when we did not create the mess. We look for ways that we can help out, because we understand that running a household is a lot. Many of us are parents too.

Candidates must have a minimum of 5 years of childcare experience, and most have much more. Each candidate completes:

1. Personal interview
2. Verification of two childcare references
3. Orientation on our standards of professionalism, confidentiality, and safety
4. CPR certification, and in-person renewal  every 2 years
5. Driving record check
6. proof of car insurance and valid driver’s license
7. An extensive 7-year background check,  reviewing the candidate’s records to the county level, a federal overview of records, Social Security Number trace, and National Sex Offender Registry check (Department Of Justice)

Our vetting process does not end at onboarding. We continue to check in with the sitter and our clients, to verify that our standards are consistently met and that the team member has the support they need to do well.

We prioritize candidates who are kind, patient, and reliable.

We are an equal opportunity staffing agency and so our team includes women, men, transgender men and women, and nonbinary people. Our customers and their children identify in all of these ways, as well!

Please let us know in advance if your family needs to work with a babysitter of a certain gender, as we may be able to accommodate. Pursuant to the 2022 amendment to the Colorado Anti‑Discrimination Act (CADA; HB 22‑1367), gender may be taken into consideration in the context of childcare-related domestic services.

Our standardized rates for babysitting are here.

Yes, we oversee the recruitment of nannies, family assistants, and home managers through Nannies Of Boulder. Review our staffing placement page and submit an inquiry here.

Yes, babysitting services are typically covered or reimbursable if your employer offers a Dependent Care FSA (DC-FSA). If your employer offers some other type of backup care plan, tell them you’d like us to be added to the list of approved vendors. We can provide receipts for DC-FSA reimbursements.

We partner with Colorado employers to offer childcare. Want your employer to partner with us? Let us know!

We are a woman-owned small business founded in 2018, and our staff live in and around Boulder, Denver and Fort Collins. We understand all of the nuances that impact childcare in our area, from drive time and weather, to school district calendars and local events.

We are invested in our local community. Following the 2021 Marshall Fire, for example, we immediately partnered with Sister Carmen nonprofit in Lafayette, to provide dozens of families with childcare, free of charge. It was easy to make this decision and quickly implement it, because we are independently owned and local!

We know that North Longmont and Southwest Longmont are very different commutes. We know how to go on playground adventures across Boulder, Superior, and Louisville. We know what a ‘bomb cyclone’ snowstorm is, and that the day before it comes will be 70 degrees and beautiful!
