Meet Our Nannies
Below you will find pictures and a brief description of the nannies we work with. All of our nannies are well qualified, with a minimum of three years experience working with children. We require all of our nannies to undergo background checks, random drug and alcohol screening, and to be CPR and First Aid certified. We take the time to check our nannies references and get to know them to ensure they have the dedication and love it takes to work with children. As a mother, I won't contract a nanny that I wouldn’t trust with my own children, so you can rest assure that ALL of these nannies are simply exceptional!
*****Hourly Rates are for all children being cared for, not each child individually*****
Top Notch Nannies is a professional nanny referral agency. We carefully screen nannies and have very strict requirements for nannies who are on our registry. We do not employ the nannies - they are independent contractors who are employed by and paid directly by our clients.

Hi! My name is Jessie and I’m a recent elementary education graduate from Montana State University. I also have a previous degree in journalism from the University of Nebraska. My goal is to combine both degrees and become a successful teacher and children’s book author. I sincerely love kids. Their creativity, imagination, energy and simplicity inspire me to enjoy every second of life.

I have been caring for children in various capacities since my first baby-sitting job at 13 years of age. Professionally I have over six years of experience teaching grades K-5. My time in the classroom has given me invaluable opportunities to learn to perceive and engage individual student's unique personality, learning style, and gifts. I am passionate about cultivating a love of discovery in children for the world around them and in their own personal identity. I love to inspire, create, and explore, and enjoy drawing that out in the children in my care.

Hi there. My name is Trista. I'm in my late twenties. I am new to the nanny scene,but I have been caring for children since my first babysitting job at 13. I've worked with families on and off for the past six years. I transitioned to the Preschool scene in February of 2011. So I have the experience coming up with curriculum and activities based on certain ages. I believe the best way to care for kids is to keep them engaged in learning and exciting activities. I have a three year old myself so I understand what is needed for such a young age group. I try to innovate hip new ways to learn and above all I like to keep things fun.

Dear Family,
My name is Mandy McDowell and I was born and raised in Portland Oregon. From an early age I enjoyed helping my step mom run her in-home day care program. My love for kids has been there since I myself was a little kid.
Professionally, I have taught on-site in preschools for over 7 years and worked in-home for some really wonderful families.
Volunteering at my church, in their nursery for 3 years, was a great way for me to solidify my infant-care experience before I got my first job. Working as their infant-toddler teacher, for five years, allowed me to reinforce appropriate learned behaviors before moving to supporting their 3-year-old program as well.
Structured children's learning programs such as Awana, camps and vacation bible school have helped me understand organized playtime, healthy habits, and proper sanitation.
No two children are alike and each one brings new and special talents to this world. Being apart of that discovery process fuels my passion to continue this life-long career path.
I feel I can bring a loving and nurturing environment to any situation that may come my way and I look forward to the privilege of working with you and children.
Sincerely,
Mandy McDowell

Hello. My name is Brittany Durbin. I am 19 years old and from a tiny town in Illinois. I've been married to the most wonderful man now for a little over a year. He is in the military so that is why we are all the way here in Colorado. I am a full-time student and I always know my schedule 6 months in advance. I know that I will be stationed here in Colorado for at least two more years, if not longer. Also, I have four younger brothers so I have plenty of experience with children. I have babysat for countless families and do enjoy being around children. I do not have any children of my own yet; we are waiting until we are financially stable. I am a very outgoing and loving person and communication is very important to me. I look forward to meeting some of you and getting to know you and your children. I am looking for something long-term as stability is something treasured. Being a military wife doesn't always offer as much stability as one would like. I thank you in advance for your time.
