Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible babysitter with experience caring for children of all ages. I’m patient, creative, and love engaging kids through learning games, art, and outdoor play. Safety and communication are always my top priorities. I can also help with light housekeeping, pet care, or homework support. Families describe me as dependable, nurturing, and someone their kids feel comfortable with right away. I look forward to helping your family feel at ease knowing your little ones are in good hands!

“Very attentive and professional. Great sitter, especially for children with special needs. Would definitely book again! ”

$22 per hour for 1 child

Aside from having taken care of my four daughters and nieces over the years, I most recently helped my daughter adjust back to her work routine and cared for my granddaughter on a regular basis, both day and nights. I am great with children and see each as my own, and am open to rules set by the parents and abide by them. I have pets at home, so caring for pets is nothing new to me, as well as seniors. I also take care of all of our household chores, so that's also something I can do if requested.

“Wonderful experience, she’s cared for my 15 month old and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s attentive, and my daughter adores her. My daughter is a picky eater, so its been tough, but her patience has been key. She’s helped with chores around the house too.”

Hello my name is Reina. I have a BA in Psychology. I have close to 10 years of working experience with children ranging from infants to school-aged children. I am currently an educator who teaches different ages in elementary schools. I was also a behavior technician who worked with children with different developmental disabilities. I enjoy teaching and seeing children succeed.

“Reina was super friendly, great with the kids, and so kind! I appreciated how flexible she was with our ever-changing schedule. I have a neurodivergent child, and she got along with him so well! She played games with them, helped my son build a cardboard house...she engaged them in fun activities and ensured they went to bed on time and with a nice reading session. Our boys loved her and wanted to know when she would be back!”
