Jennah $25 per hour for 1 child

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.

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 29 families in Genoa, NV

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!”
