Rachel $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Reno, NV

Hello parents, my name is Rachel (you can call Rae), I am 27 years young. I grew up on Kent Island, Maryland and moved to Lake Tahoe four years ago to pursue my career in Baking & Pastry at The Ritz-Carlton after I graduated from Johnson & Wales University, in Providence Rhode Island. I love to hike, snowboard, swim, and bake. I live with my lovely Fiancée (spencer) and our kittens/children (Korra/sokka) in South Reno. My first job was in childcare starting at 16 years old and continued to work with families on and off since. I was also a lifeguard for 4 years during my summers home from college. So, I had to participate in lifeguard certifications every summer and that includes first aid & CPR certifications as well. I am now first aid & CPR certified and carry the lifesaving techniques with me from years past. I am great with children of all ages, including infants. I also have experience caring for siblings with age gaps, I know how to juggle their needs so that each child receives the care and attention they need. During down time I can assist with household chores such as laundry, dishes, cleaning, and organizing. I also have 2 years experience in being a personal assistant. Since trained professionally in the kitchen I can prepare healthy meals and tasty desserts for the family. I have been told that I am caring, trustworthy, and reliable. I look forward to meeting you & your family and promise to care for them as if they are my very own.

Deb $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Reno, NV

Hi I'm Deb. I have two grown children now. When my youngest was small, I cared for another child in our home. I adored presenting activities for the two of them to explore the world and be creative. At various times, I homeschooled both of my kids. I have a master's degree, and for the past 3 years have been pouring my energy into my business,[removed] a confidential listening service, but the income is not there to take care of my financial needs. I have a dog, and my grand cat lives in Texas, where my daughter is enrolled in a PhD program at Baylor College of Medicine. My son lives nearby and serves the National Guard while pursuing his degree at TMCC in welding and he also works at Home Depot. I am very proud that my now adult kids are so successful on their own. I believe in the power of active listening and teaching emotional intelligence to children--it's necessary to show them how, and they will discover their own power. My daughter is a black belt in aikido, and I spent many hours driving her to classes. My son participated in fencing and swimming. If that's needed, I'm open to it. Cooking and cleaning are also in my wheelhouse, though I do prefer baking to cooking. My grandmother used to professionally clean houses, and while I don't have the standard she did, I am absolutely a fan of "Better than it was!" And making sure that the environment is always safe. If you've read this far, it would be an hour to serve your family, and be someone your children could trust to help them when they need it.

Hi! I'm a friendly and trustworthy caregiver with experience taking care of children of different ages. I love doing fun activities, helping with routines. I'm very patient, organized, and easy to communicate with.

Madelyn 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Reno, NV

Hi there! :) My name is Maddie, I’m a sophomore at UNR and I’m majoring in Public Health in hopes of becoming a pediatrician. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I absolutely love working with kids, I have a younger brother who I’m inseparable with and grew up with lots of younger cousins. I’ve been babysitting on the side since I was 15 and have gained valuable experience with the 3-10y/o age range. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school or extracurriculars, tutoring, preparing meals, and arts and crafts. I also work as a household assistant and can clean, take dogs on walks, and run errands. I love all animals and would gladly housesit for a family with pets 🐾

Madeline was great with Phoenix! She is totally confident, watching him at the resort while we skied.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
