For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and providing families with dependable childcare. My passion lies in fostering each child's unique growth and development, and I find joy in making a positive impact on their lives. I bring a patient, creative, and friendly approach to my care. I am comfortable caring for up to three children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. I am adept at following parents' lead on household rules and communication preferences, offering verbal updates at pickup and regular texts or calls. I enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I am also happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. Ultimately, I strive to create a safe, fun, and enriching environment where your children can thrive, and I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your family!
Hi there, my name is Jasmine! I have always loved taking care of kids by making them feel comfortable and stay safe while their parents are away. I want to be a mom one day as I value creating an environment for children to learn and grow. I am currently a student-athlete at the University of Nevada, Reno where I have had the opportunity to volunteer with Girls on the Run and at a couple of local elementary schools. As an active member in college athletics and 5+ years of babysitting experience, I embody responsibility and have already made the commitment to put your kids first. I look forward to connecting!
“Jasmine is awesome and I really hope to hire her again. She instantly bonded with my kids, kept them happy, fed, clean, entertained (on a rainy day!), and tidied up with them after playing and meals. She handled nap time like a pro and was entirely self sufficient. Highly recommend!!”
I am a nanny who absolutely loves children, child development and especially toddlers. I have 4+ years of teaching experience (preschool and kindergarten) and 3+ nannying. I moved back to the Bay Area with my husband to be closer to family and friends. I love pets, I have an adorable 2 year old sweet hyper doggy that I absolutely adore and 2 kitties we love very much! I’m NOT comfortable working for families that use spanking as discipline or any harsh disciplinary actions with children. I work best with families who have a gentle approach and can allow me to use a gentle, child led approach as well.
Hi, my name is Rachel. I am a 37-year-old Italian mother of two (an 8-year-old boy and a 2-year-old girl), I come from a large Italian family, plenty of experience with multitasking. I am ready to re-enter the workforce after spending the last 6 years as a full-time homemaker. As the primary provider for my children, I am motivated, dependable, and ready to work. I bring over 13 years of experience working with children from newborns through age 16. I also have nearly 16 years of experience as a caregiver in assisted living settings and providing care for family members. In addition, I have professional experience in housekeeping and cooking, including weekly meal prep tailored to specific dietary needs. I am very comfortable with animals of all kinds and enjoy working in homes with pets. I have reliable transportation and can commute in any type of weather. I have lived in Nevada for over 2 years and previously lived in Colorado, where I worked as a professional driver for about 6 years with a pilot car company supporting oversized loads. I also have hands-on construction experience from working in my father’s business. I am skilled at building, basic handyman tasks, and I am comfortable using computers and learning new systems. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, home, or business, I would love to connect. Please feel free to message me to set up a time to talk or meet. Thank you for your time and consideration.
I have been babysitting most of my life. I am a mother of 2, one 14 year old boy and an 11 year old girl. I am CPR certified and have a degree in early childhood education with experience in preschools and elementary schools. I have many personal and professional references. I love working with kids and am currently not working since I moved to Reno, so I’m just looking for occasional jobs. I also love animals and am happy to help with pets. I am a very clean and organized person and prefer to sit on the ground and play with a child rather than sit them in front of a device. I believe children are the most wonderful humans and have a deep desire to get on their level and see the world through their eyes. Having worked at an elementary school in the past, I also have experience with special needs children. I am incredibly patient and love to give love and comfort to everyone I interact with. Happy to help clean up as well (I have provided cleaning services in the past) as I know how difficult it can be to manage home, work, and kiddos. Please feel free to ask me any questions.
