Find a last-minute babysitter in Tahoe City, CA

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.

Hi there, I'm Rachel from Australia. I've worked with children for 15 years whilst travelling the world and absolutely love it! My experience includes: - Summer Camp Counsellor at Mountain Camp in California where I lived with, and was responsible for a cabin of 10 girls. I led outdoor activities including yoga, dance and drama, ropes course, lake activities and biking and hiking for children between 5 - 13 years old. - Teaching Assistant in the UK at a private school (Gad's Hill) working with children aged 3 - 16. This included assisting with daycare, english, math, art classes, taking swimming lessons and after school care. - Casual nannying jobs looking after infants - 15 year olds. - Ski instructing in Canada for 5 - 17 year olds. I have my level 2 CSIA ski instructor certification so can provide ski lessons and on-mountain care, depending on your child's ability level. I'm a big kid at heart and relate very easily with children, I'm also organised and believe that some structure can be really important. I'm always down to help with homework and meal prep too - Let me know about what's important for your family and I look forward to meeting you!

I love kids! I really enjoy spending time with kids, taking care of them, attending to their needs, having fun with them mainly, as kids can really teach us so much about ourselves. I have a mechanical engineering degree from CU Boulder, and am currently a kid's ski instructor at Alpine Meadows. I also am CPR certified, have my EMT license, 200 hour yoga teaching certification, and was an ocean lifeguard for five years. I am used to being responsible for other people, adults or kids or dogs, and will make sure your kids have fun.

Hi there! I am currently looking for part-time babysitting work. I have a patchwork of experience, working with children from infancy to high-school aged. Most of that comes from working in childcare centers with children 0-4 years old and in after school programs. I have a degree in botany, and I love love love using outdoor spaces to let children explore and develop. While I have a variety of childhood development and psychology courses in my background, I am also continuing my early childhood development education so that I can plan activities to do with children that best fits their age and needs. My ideal care includes a lot of play and hands-on activities. Please let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting your family! Emma

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.
