Hi my name is Sheri, I love children of all ages, having raised two of my own, I also had the privilege to care for my newborn grandson until he was two years old and started preschool. I have been lovingly caring for children for many years and started as a teenager. Most recently I worked as a senior caregiver, finding it most rewarding. I also love animals having had dogs and currently two cats.
Hi there! :) My name is Maddie, I’m currently completing my nursing pre requisites online and am about to get my CNA license. I work part time at a coffee shop and am looking to fill my evenings during the weekdays, and I’m available all day Sundays and Mondays! I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I absolutely love working with kids, I have a younger brother who I’m inseparable with and grew up with lots of younger cousins. I’ve been babysitting on the side since I was 15 and have gained valuable experience with the 3-10y/o age range. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school or extracurriculars, tutoring, preparing meals, and arts and crafts. I also work as a household assistant and can clean, take dogs on walks, and run errands. I love all animals and would gladly housesit for a family with pets 🐾

Hi, my name is Amanda. I’ve been a professional nanny over 10 years. I have taken many early childhood education courses, including the child psychology, health safety and nutrition, practices and principles of teaching young children, child and adolescent growth and development, child family and community, introduction to curriculum, and teaching in a diverse society. I started baby sitting when I was 16, and have always loved working with children. I am very patient, and have experience with developmentally appropriate activities and positive child guidance. If you choose, I can bring crafts and other activities such as story time with felt boards depending on your child's interest. I am also a great date night sitter. I live in Reno, but I’m open to travel up to South lake I do charge a flat rate travel fee to cover gas. Thank you for taking the time to consider me.
“Amanda took excellent care of our 8 month old son. We were visiting Reno and gone for the evening for a wedding. Amanda brought some children books to read, and communicated with us promptly when our baby was refusing his bottle of breastmilk. She managed to get him to drink some formula, and easily put him to sleep when it was bedtime. Highly recommend Amanda!”
Hello, My name is Lori. I'm a fun, loving, energetic Nanny/Sitter with more than 30 years experience. I'm married and have two boys of my own, ages 17 and 11. I don't mind commuting. This year will be my 32nd winter in Tahoe and I'm very confident driving in the snow. A little about me.... I'm honest, very reliable, and always on time. I love kids and they love me. Childcare is my chosen profession, and I love it. I had a licensed daycare in my home for 6 years. I cared for 7 children, including infants through age 12. I've also worked at a large daycare center. The majority of my career I've worked as a Nanny. I'm great with kids of all ages. Several families have given me the nickname "baby whisperer". I love arts and crafts, reading, music, and playing games. Though I'll admit, if the weather is good, I prefer to be outside with the kids. I love the outdoors. I snowboard in the winter, hike year round, and I love to mountain bike, swim, and paddle board during the summer. I enjoy doing all of these activities with kids too if they're interested. Most of the time, with younger kids, we take walks, play at the beach during summer and go sledding and play in the snow during winter. It's really up to the kids, and their ages and interests. I'm ready for anything. I'll provide references upon request. If you hire me, Your children will receive the best care you could possibly hope for. You'll have a hard time finding someone else with my level of experience. I'd love the opportunity to speak with you and answer any questions you may have. Thank you, I hope to hear from you soon. Lori R.
“Lori was great! she was very communicative, great with follow up and responsiveness. Also very prompt! We definitely recommend Lori! ”
