Jasmine 2 reviews
$31 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Virginia City, NV

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!!”

Ashlyn $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ashlyn, a dedicated and caring childcare professional with several years of experience working with children of all ages in preschool, after-school, and summer camp settings. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education and have a passion for creating safe, fun, and engaging environments where children can learn and grow. I’m dependable, patient, organized, and love building meaningful relationships with the families I work with. Whether it’s planning creative activities, helping with homework, preparing meals, keeping routines on track, or simply being a positive role model, I always strive to make each child feel supported and cared for. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, errands, pet care, and household organization. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to getting to know your family and providing reliable, compassionate care!

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.

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.
