Find a wedding babysitter in The Lakes, NV

Hello, I am Mainou(My-new) and originally from Minnesota. I mostly just babysit when I’m free and can fit it in. Been on hiatus on urban sitter for awhile but super excited that I can finally do this again. I come from a BIG family and as one of the older kids I definitely have a lot of experience taking care of the young ones from my teenage to my Aunty years. Also assisted my mother during her daycare years.

Experienced and reliable nanny with several years of caring for children from infants to 8 years old. I’ve worked at Life Time Athletic in the Kids Academy department and summer camp, where I led activities and taught gymnastics. I’m an empathetic, energetic caregiver who loves creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids to learn and grow.

My name is Elena and I am originally from Argentina. I currently work as a Language Access Coordinator. Previously, I worked for the Clark County School District for 17 years as an Instructional Assistant for children with disabilities, including in an autism program at the elementary level. In addition, I tutor children and adults at different levels in Spanish, French, and ESL, and I also help with homework. I enjoy helping and playing with children; I believe they are special, fun, and smart. Some of my strengths include physical stamina, cultural sensitivity, and intuition. Because of my experience with non-verbal and autistic children, I have developed strategies that I can apply when working with other kids as well. Regarding elderly care, my experience includes providing companionship, reading aloud, listening, and engaging in activities they enjoy. I consider myself empathetic and compassionate. In my spare time, I love listening to jazz, and music from the 80’s and 90’s. I also enjoy reading, exercising, playing with pets, and traveling. On Sundays, I volunteer as a catechist for a special education class.

I've been working independently as a babysitter since I was 15 years old. Over the past 6 years, I've had the privilege of serving as a nanny for multiple families, caring for children ranging in ages from newborns to school-aged. My experience includes everything from bottle-feeding infants to school pick-ups and drop-offs, and I tailor my care to each family's unique needs. As a former homeschooling parent myself, I bring a strong educational and creative approach to childcare. This experience has given me a deep understanding of child-led learning, patience, and flexibility. Whether your child thrives with quiet time at home, exciting outings, or a healthy balance of both, I'm happy to accommodate. My goal is always to create a safe, engaging, and supportive environment that works for both the parents and the child(ren). I am CPR and First Aid Adult/Child/Infant certified.

Caring for children has been a big part of my life for years, especially babies and young children. Much of my experience comes from helping care for my two younger brothers throughout their childhoods, as well as babysitting relatives and family friends. These experiences helped me build strong skills with routines, emotional support, and everyday childcare needs. I take a patient, caring approach and focus on helping children feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I also worked as a student aide for special needs students during high school, which taught me adaptability, compassion, and how to support each child’s unique needs. I recently graduated high school and will be starting college to study Social Work. I currently work with a family caring for their twins, but I mainly look for one-time, date-night, weekend, and as-needed babysitting opportunities. I have reliable transportation through family support and rideshare services and am working toward getting my driver’s license. I’m also happy to help with homework and light child-related housekeeping. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely invested in the children and families I work with. Feel free to ask any questions; I’d love to talk! 💛
