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.

My name is Juliana and I am from Argentina. I am 30 years old. As I have studied English as a Second Language I have experience working at primary schools and at kindergarten level. I have experience as a sitter for four years now in Lake Tahoe area. During these years I have taken good care of children from babies newly born to kids 7 years old. I like dynamism, and being creative has helped me to add variety to my everyday routines making kids have fun and enjoy while playing. I am very responsable and I do understand that taking care of children and even infants may be difficult and challenging. Thus, I believe I have the tools and carisma to make things work.

Juli was great with my girls ( 1 & 4 yo). She brought toys and was super helpful. Despite of my younger one going through stranger danger period she did her best to make her feel comfortable and safe, played, distracted her and offered help with tasks like cooking, feeding, putting to bed, etc. My older one loved Bluey books and other toys Juli brought to keep her busy. I recommend Juli

"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!"
