Deb $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Sparks, NV

Hi I'm Deb. I have two grown children now. When my youngest was small, I cared for another child in our home. I adored presenting activities for the two of them to explore the world and be creative. At various times, I homeschooled both of my kids. I have a master's degree, and for the past 3 years have been pouring my energy into my business,[removed] a confidential listening service, but the income is not there to take care of my financial needs. I have a dog, and my grand cat lives in Texas, where my daughter is enrolled in a PhD program at Baylor College of Medicine. My son lives nearby and serves the National Guard while pursuing his degree at TMCC in welding and he also works at Home Depot. I am very proud that my now adult kids are so successful on their own. I believe in the power of active listening and teaching emotional intelligence to children--it's necessary to show them how, and they will discover their own power. My daughter is a black belt in aikido, and I spent many hours driving her to classes. My son participated in fencing and swimming. If that's needed, I'm open to it. Cooking and cleaning are also in my wheelhouse, though I do prefer baking to cooking. My grandmother used to professionally clean houses, and while I don't have the standard she did, I am absolutely a fan of "Better than it was!" And making sure that the environment is always safe. If you've read this far, it would be an hour to serve your family, and be someone your children could trust to help them when they need it.

Esperanza $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Esperanza . I fell in love with kids when my first sibling was born. I learned how to hold a bottle and change diapers and I had a built in best friend. Three siblings later I knew I wanted to be a nanny. My dream came true and I have been able to babysit and nanny for multiple families over the last 5 years! I have worked with every age from 0-14. I especially have experience with babies and toddlers. I am very easy going and extroverted. I love to engage kids and challenge myself to find what makes each kid tick! I enjoy walks, parks, cooking/baking, coloring, reading, singing and dancing. I am very animatedand I enjoy being creative. My goal as a nanny is to teach each child I encounter, no matter what their age is, that they are special and capable; that they are worthy of being cherished. Helping kids know their value helps them to value others around them. I think that kids learn most from experiences and I do my best to bring them into everything I do. I understand how important it is to have a nanny that is a good example. Kids copy the people they are around the most and I want to be someone they can copy without consequence. I love learning and teaching (I have worked as a tutor and piano teacher on the side for 2 years). I am also very good in the kitchen and have experience cooking meals for families I have worked for in the past. I can also do household chores. Most of all I am a christian and that bleeds into the values I have and the way that I live my life. My motto is diligence based on Galatians 6 “Let is not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest of we do not give up.”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
