Jennah $25 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting most of my life. I am a mother of 2, one 14 year old boy and an 11 year old girl. I am CPR certified and have a degree in early childhood education with experience in preschools and elementary schools. I have many personal and professional references. I love working with kids and am currently not working since I moved to Reno, so I’m just looking for occasional jobs. I also love animals and am happy to help with pets. I am a very clean and organized person and prefer to sit on the ground and play with a child rather than sit them in front of a device. I believe children are the most wonderful humans and have a deep desire to get on their level and see the world through their eyes. Having worked at an elementary school in the past, I also have experience with special needs children. I am incredibly patient and love to give love and comfort to everyone I interact with. Happy to help clean up as well (I have provided cleaning services in the past) as I know how difficult it can be to manage home, work, and kiddos. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

Hi, my name is Nidia. I’m offering my services as a sitter for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, dogs, and even house sitting. I have years of experience caring for children of all ages, having worked as a sitter while attending school to help pay for my education. In addition, I volunteered for several years in church for Sunday school, caring for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. I’m a mother to a 23-year-old and currently furthering my education online. For the past 19 years, I’ve worked as a medical assistant, including over eight years of experience caring for pediatric patients. My goal is to be a trustworthy resource for parents and a fun, responsible caregiver for your children, pets, and home. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m bilingual in English and Spanish.

I have always loved working with children and now that I am a mom myself that love has only grown. I have been a preschool teacher for a few years now and before that I was a private nanny. I can cook and drive if and whenever needed to help with household tasks or taking children to appointments.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
