Booked by 36 families in Carnelian Bay, CA

Hi there, I'm Rachel from Australia. I've worked with children for 15 years whilst travelling the world and absolutely love it! My experience includes: - Summer Camp Counsellor at Mountain Camp in California where I lived with, and was responsible for a cabin of 10 girls. I led outdoor activities including yoga, dance and drama, ropes course, lake activities and biking and hiking for children between 5 - 13 years old. - Teaching Assistant in the UK at a private school (Gad's Hill) working with children aged 3 - 16. This included assisting with daycare, english, math, art classes, taking swimming lessons and after school care. - Casual nannying jobs looking after infants - 15 year olds. - Ski instructing in Canada for 5 - 17 year olds. I have my level 2 CSIA ski instructor certification so can provide ski lessons and on-mountain care, depending on your child's ability level. I'm a big kid at heart and relate very easily with children, I'm also organised and believe that some structure can be really important. I'm always down to help with homework and meal prep too - Let me know about what's important for your family and I look forward to meeting you!

We've had Rachel watch our 8 month old twice now and couldn't be happier. She's always punctual, super easy to communicate with, and just handles everything like a pro, even multitasking things like meal prep while keeping an eye on the baby. Our little one warmed up to her right away. Highly recommend!

I raised two wonderful humans to adulthood, and have been teaching high school English for 15 years while earning numerous awards and commendations. I also come trained as a first responder through 15 years of experience with Search and Rescue which includes certification as EMR (including First Aid, CPR, and AED for infants through adults) as well as numerous awards and commendations. I volunteered for 10 years in the youth program at my church (Calvary Chapel, Reno/Sparks), worked as the lead teacher of the school-age summer program at Little Knights and Maidens, led the youth program at my local library for many years, and led my own children through myriad sports and activities (soccer, dance, 4H, Scouts, etc). As my own children are recently off to college, I find myself with more time on my hands, and I would love to serve my community while making some extra tuition money for my own kids. Tutoring of course can be included in the services listed.

Booked by 3 families in Carnelian Bay, CA

I love kids! I really enjoy spending time with kids, taking care of them, attending to their needs, having fun with them mainly, as kids can really teach us so much about ourselves. I have a mechanical engineering degree from CU Boulder, and am currently a kid's ski instructor at Alpine Meadows. I also am CPR certified, have my EMT license, 200 hour yoga teaching certification, and was an ocean lifeguard for five years. I am used to being responsible for other people, adults or kids or dogs, and will make sure your kids have fun.

Kelly is very sweet and wonderful with kids! My son warmed up to her instantly. We would definitely hire again!

Lucia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lucía, I am 26 years old and I consider myself a patient, responsible, and committed person in everything I do. I study Psychology and have taken courses related to child development and behavior, which allows me to better understand children’s emotions and needs according to their age. In the future, I would love to work in therapy with children, which is why learning from them is very important to me. I also love pets, I have a dog myself who’s very anxious so I know how to deal with pers that are a little more shy or don’t trust enough at first.

Hi! I’m offering part time childcare, senior care, home care and pet care as services. I’ve been a Lake Tahoe Westshore resident for the past 11 years. My husband and I moved here from Eagle, CO just in time for our daughter to start 1st grade. She’s now a senior at North Tahoe High School. She’s been involved with the cheer and tennis programs but loves the snowboarding winter program the most. We also have two beautiful sisters we are currently a Resource Family for ages 17 & 11. I come from a large family of 7 siblings whom all have children of their own. I’ve taken care of plenty of children from newborn to teenagers. We have an 8 year old German shepherd who absolutely loves the winter but hates bikes and bears. :) My 82 year old Father in law is widowed and retired so we moved him in with us 6 years ago. My nephew also resides with us as we’ve helped raise him since infancy. I was a Communications and Theatre major in College. I’m currently a licensed Real Estate agent in CA and NV. I absolutely love children of all ages. I love to cook and I’m good with everyday housework and have plenty of experience in all aspects of home care. I love everything outdoors to biking, walking, swimming, paddle boarding or just time playing at the beach or on the mountain. I am a current licensed Placer County Resource Parent (Foster Family ) which includes CPR/AED:Adult,Children,Infant + First Aid (BLS) Certification.
