I’m a warm, fun, dependable, and creative caregiver with experience supporting children, families, pets, and households. I genuinely love working with toddlers and young children and enjoy creating fun, hands-on activities that keep kids engaged, learning, and happy. I often bring crafts, sensory projects, books, games, and creative activities to encourage imagination and development. I’m patient, calm, organized, and attentive to each child’s unique personality and needs. I believe in creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, cared for, and encouraged to be themselves. I’m also happy to help with routines, homework, meal prep, bedtime, light housekeeping, laundry, errands, pet care, and keeping the household running smoothly. My experience in hospitality and business ownership has also made me highly reliable, communicative, adaptable, and detail-oriented. Families can count on me to be nurturing, trustworthy, and fully present while ensuring their children are safe, active, and well cared for.

Hi there! My name is Miriam, I am a mom of 1 as of last year and I have experience with caring for my baby girl and also with nieces and nephews for the last couple of years. Hoping to find a loving family that I can work with while being able to bring my baby along. I’ve experienced first hand what it’s like trying to juggle childcare while working a full time job and also how hard it is to find someone caring enough to trust your babies with. I would love to put all of my time and effort to care for your babies, while bringing my baby along to help yours and my family thrive together.

“Jeanne was great. Played with our 2 year old kid all day; he didn’t cry when we left miraculously and was in a great mood when we got home. Will def work with her again!”
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.
