Fort Collins Nanny Placement

Nanny Placement in Fort Collins

From newborn care in Old Town to after-school help in Southeast Fort Collins, we match families with exceptional nannies who fit their lifestyle, not just their schedule.

Every Summit nanny is 21 or older, holds a bachelor's degree, and brings at least five years of recent, professional childcare experience. That's a very different standard from a student babysitter or a random online listing. Every candidate completes our seven-step screening process, and fewer than 5% of applicants make it through.

The Fort Collins Lifestyle

An Outdoor Lifestyle Deserves Flexible Care

Fort Collins families spend their weekends on the water at Horsetooth, on trails in Poudre Canyon, and heading into the mountains for ski season. Our nannies love that lifestyle too, and many bring an outdoor, active approach to their care. When your family travels to Colorado's ski resorts, our mountain sitters come directly to your rental, hotel, or condo.
