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.

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.

Hello families! I'm a local artist who loves to share my creativity with children of all ages. I've traveled teaching art around the world and i'm alway saving for another trip to expand my knowledge and friendships. My experience nannying spans over 15 years since my first little sibling was born when I was 10. I now have 3 younger siblings and have always felt like a second mom in the family. Caring for and nurturing children will always be part of my life because I firmly believe in mentorship. We all have to work together to become the people we are today. I usually bring an art bag and some hula hoops along with me and depending on the ages and some books! I can drive to any location also. Thank you for your consideration, I look forward to meeting you, have a beautiful day ! :)

tailor was great! she was prompt, very flexible when our childcare needs shifted, and wonderful with our 17 month old daughter! we would definitely use tailor again!

I have several years of paid childcare experience in a variety of settings. I am currently a nanny, and love to supported children’s with their daily routines, helped with homework, prepared meals, and created a safe, engaging environment. I also currently work at Special Education school, where I assist with children’s care, supervision, and classroom activities. My experience has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and problem-solving skills, and I’m comfortable working with different ages and needs. I always aim to build positive relationships with the children and families I support.
