About Colin

Experience: 4 yrs

Hi families! I'm Colin, and I especially enjoy working with creative, imaginative kids and have also been a youth group leader and piano tutor, strengthening my patience, structure, and ability to encourage children in a positive, engaging way. I'm not a 'sit on the couch and scroll on my phone' type of sitter! I genuinely enjoy spending screen-free time with children through reading, pretend play, crafts, outdoor activities, games, and conversation. I provide attentive, compassionate care and adapt my approach to help every child feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. I also have experience with shy and neurodivergent children. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, fingerprint background checked, TB cleared, have reliable transportation and a clean driving record, and hold an SDSU engineering degree. I'm also happy to help with handyman tasks around the house! If you're looking for someone kind, dependable, and genuinely invested in your child's well-being, I'd love to help your family!

Colin watched our son on very short notice when our normal babysitter couldn't come. He loves to build/construct/assemble things, and from my work area I could hear them building and experimenting literally for hours. My son had a great time!
