Frequently Asked Questions about Telluride Sitters

Certifications vary by sitter, but all of our sitters are CPR and 1st Aid Certified, and are over the age of 21. Call us to find out the different types of certifications our sitters have.

I Need a Babysitter Now, Can You Help?

While there is a fee for reservations made less than 24 hours in advance, Telluride Sitters will do our best to provide you with a sitter when you need one. We don’t promise miracles, but we love trying to make them happen!

Do You Provide Toys or Equipment?

Yes! Telluride Sitters has a variety of children’s toy and equipment rentals for all ages. If you need a stroller or crib we can provide that, even if you don’t need any of our other child care services. We’ll deliver it to you and set it up if requested.

Where Do I Drop Off My Kid(s)?

You can drop them off at our Base Camp Location located at the Peaks Resort and Spa. Or you don’t have to drop them off anywhere if you don’t want to – we’ll come to you! We can meet you wherever you’d like and will plan a day or night based on your input.

Can I Have the Same Babysitter I Had Last Time?

Sitters can be reserved upon request, so if your child has a favorite our advice is to call well in advance to make sure they’re available. If you can’t reserve in advance, and your sitter is not available, we will do our best to make you happy.

Can You Babysit More Than One Child at a Time?

Absolutely! We’re more than happy to care for as many kids as you need, and can provide additional staff for groups of more than 6 kids. We’ll even plan a children’s party if you’d like. If you’re in town for a wedding, reunion, or conference, we can plan an event just for the kids so they don’t feel left out – and so you can get some adult time.
