Jennah Reno
$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.

Hello families! 😊 I’m a dedicated professional child caregiver with over 7 years of experience helping children thrive from infancy through early childhood. My approach combines an engaging, playful environment with a strong foundation in early childhood education—helping little ones build confidence, master key developmental milestones, and learn healthy emotional skills. Key Qualifications & Experience: • CPR & First Aid Certified • Multiple Early Childhood Development Certifications • Specialized in milestone tracking, screen-free learning, and positive boundaries I love keeping kids active through outdoor adventures, creative arts, storytime, and hands-on learning. I focus on creating a supportive, structured space where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light household management, meal prep, house sitting, and pet care. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and easy to communicate with.

Hi! My name is Simona; I’m from Argentina, but currently living in Tahoe on a J-1 visa. I work as a ski instructor, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and clear communication especially with children. I’m a responsible, caring, and friendly babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with kids. I have experience caring for kids of different ages and always focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and comfortable. I’d love the opportunity to help your family and be someone you can count on! ❤️
