Parent Testimonials
If you want a user-friendly booking site, along with reliable and compassionate sitters, this is the place.
Babysitters of Boulder has been truly game-changing for our family. If you want a user-friendly booking site, along with reliable and compassionate sitters, this is the place. Prior to using this agency, I had so much (unnecessary!) stress dealing with flaky caregivers that canceled last minute or didn’t text back / show up, it was disheartening and frustrating to say the least. Genna and her team of sitters are worth their weight in gold.
– Minda B., Lafayette
We were visiting from out of town...had the best experience with our 2 & 3 yr old!
We had the best experience with our 2 & 3 yr old!! We were visiting from out of town and were nervous about a new sitter…she had them in giggles playing hide and seek within minutes. Our kids ran over and said bye to me because they wanted me to leave, which never happens!
– Ali T., Woodstock, NY
Babysitters of Boulder event childcare was absolutely worth it!
Babysitters of Boulder was absolutely worth it! We hired them to babysit nine kids ranging the ages of 1 to 12 during the reception portion of our wedding in a room separate from the reception. The parents were able to enjoy the dinner and dancing while the kids were well-taken care of.
– Johanna H., Denver
Hiring an exceptional nanny, and coverage for date nights with high quality, vetted sitters.
We have used Babysitters of Boulder in multiple ways over the year. First to find our full time nanny for my 4 month old & 4 year, who has been exceptional. And second to have some extra coverage for date nights or when our nanny is away. We’ve always received high quality, vetted sitters – a huge peace of mind when you are leaving an infant in their care for a whole day. Highly recommended!

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.
