About Dorothy
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! I'm Dorothy. I just moved to Denver from Fort Collins about three months ago. I'm into nature, art, and I love animals. I also love working with children of all ages! I'm an aunt to 9 nieces and nephews, the oldest, E, just turned 8. The youngest, J, is about 5 months old, so they all fall in that age group. I am really close with each of them and I love being an aunt. I started babysitting when I was about 10 yrs. old in KY. I'm now 32 and would guess I have about 20 years of experience babysitting, nannying, and professionally working with youth. In 2013, I was a live-in Au Pair for a family in France. I took care of their three children. In the summer of 2015, I was program manager and camp counselor at McCarthey's Kid's camp (ages 6 months-13 yrs) in Wrangell St. Elias National Park, in Alaska. 2016-2019, I was a therapeutic wilderness field guide for youth ages 10-17. From 2020-22, I was a youth mentor for boys.
