Many of our nannies like Katie have fabulous educational backgrounds from working at a Ouray County After School Program or School, and are perfect for a learning-focused family who want to continue their children’s education even outside of school!

“I am a compassionate and caring individual who is dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of children. The Ouray County After School Program would be an ideal fit for me as I am committed to being the best that I can be and have a strong passion for teaching and mentoring kids. My extensive experience working in the school district and with the Ouray County After School Program has provided me with a wide range of skills. I chose the Nanny profession because it allows me to gain more experience in the childcare field while still doing what I love – working with children! I have been involved in various forms of childcare for over 6 years and genuinely enjoy every moment. I firmly believe that children hold the key to a brighter future, and in order for them to become responsible citizens, they need to be treated with utmost respect, care, and love. In addition to ensuring the child's safety and well-being, I also strive to plan fun and creative activities that they will enjoy. I am very flexible and willing to take on light cleaning responsibilities that the family may require. When it comes to describing myself, I would say that I am caring, conscientious, responsible, creative, and respectful. As a certified art teacher, I would love to incorporate art activities into the daily plan for the family I care for. This could involve painting and other art-related projects. Attending community events and programs, as well as providing both playtime and rest time, are also essential components of my daily routine. The perfect family seeking a Nanny like me would ideally be easy-going and actively involved in their child's life. It is crucial that they are supportive of my role as a caregiver in their child's life."

“Ouray County After School Program: Ashley has been the primary caregiver for my three children since they were infants. I have a daughter and twin boys, with my daughter being just two and a half years older than her brothers. Despite the challenges of caring for all three children, Ashley was consistently outstanding in her abilities. My kids truly enjoyed having her as their caregiver. Ashley possesses a strong sense of responsibility, honesty, and diligence in her work ethic. Families searching for someone with experience from the Ouray County After School Program would greatly benefit from having her as part of their team.”

Throughout this time, Katie has consistently displayed qualities that make her an outstanding caregiver. She has always been punctual and has shown great enthusiasm in engaging with our children. Katie diligently follows the instructions we provide, ensuring that our kids are well-fed and have a consistent bedtime routine. Notably, her attentiveness to our son's multiple food allergies has been exceptional, and she has effectively administered antihistamines when necessary. Additionally, Katie takes the initiative to clean up after dinner without being asked.

Katie remains composed, even in high-pressure situations, and effectively conveys her thoughts and concerns. Her ease in adapting to the changing needs of our family, including caring for our now five-year-old son and eighteen-month-old daughter, demonstrates her versatility and competence. Considering Katie's experience working in the Ouray County After School Program and her overall childcare background, we firmly believe she is an excellent candidate for a nanny position. Her passion for nurturing children is evident, and we wholeheartedly support her aspiration to pursue a career as a nanny.
