I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and over 12 years of childcare experience. I began my career working in a daycare setting, where I gained valuable experience caring for children of different ages and developmental stages. From there, I transitioned into nannying and have worked with a variety of wonderful families throughout the Las Vegas Valley. My most recent long-term nanny position lasted five years with the same family, caring for their child from early childhood until he began school. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for every child in my care. In addition to nannying, I have provided babysitting services for hundreds of families over the years, including date nights, special events, and recurring care. I have experience with children ranging from newborns to middle school age and genuinely enjoy building meaningful connections with each child. My caregiving style is very hands-on, and I love keeping children active and engaged through games, outdoor play, arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, and other age-appropriate activities. I believe childhood should be filled with creativity, learning, and fun, and I always strive to provide a positive, dependable, and caring experience for both children and their families.
I have 4 younger siblings that I have helped take care of my whole life. I have babysat for multiple different families in my home town. The most kids I have watched was 4 at a time! I also sit every now and then for one family currently. They ask me if I’m available and we go from there! I also help with household chores and make dinner. I’m fun loving and silly while also stern and I like to make sure I do things just as the parents ask. I’m creative with activities and games. I’m 27 without kids just yet, just trying to earn extra money where I can. I have a my CPR certification. I have also house sat and pet sat plenty of times. I am trustworthy and kind. House pick up and plant care is great! I work at a plant and tree nursery, so I’m not afraid of the dirt and I know a bit about plants.
Hi, I’m Syd! I’m 19 and I moved to Las Vegas last year with my family. I offer childcare and pet care. I can drive and I love to cook! I have experience with children of all ages, from toddlers to teens. I’ve been helping take care of my younger siblings, cousins, and neighborhood kids for years. (The parents on my block used to call me the “Neighborhood Mom.”) I was always the first to introduce myself when a new kid moved into our community, and I was always happy to watch over, cook for, and take the kids out to the park! I love music, art, space, video games, and animals! I also enjoy spending time outdoors, swimming, and playing board games. I’m a strong swimmer and know CPR, so I’d be happy to take your kids to the pool! I have three birds and a dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable with pets as well!
"Hi! I’m Elizabeth Ward, a professional art teacher with 26 years of classroom experience and a strong background in private babysitting. Because I work with students daily, I excel at keeping kids engaged, managing after-school routines, and maintaining a calm, positive environment. I specialize in afternoon and evening care. I love bringing mess-free, creative art projects to keep kids off screens, helping with homework, and handling dinner and bedtime transitions smoothly. I have a fully cleared background check, and look forward to giving your family peace of mind!" I also love animals and ready to give them love as well.
