Hi! I’m Meghan, a Tahoe local ski and snowboard instructor and coach. With several years experience working with youth. I enjoy taking kids outside rather than keeping them in front of a screen. Staying interactive, to help kids feel comfortable while having fun. I grew up with very active parents and that lifestyle has stuck with me into my adulthood. I love doing arts and crafts, making up fun silly games to play, baking cookies to decorate, and legitimately making learning fun in all sorts of exciting ways. I do understand the importance of a timely nap, and set schedules kids are on. I am almost finished with online and in person school to become a special education teacher. I have worked in special education classrooms as a paraprofessional for about 3 years now. Know basic sign language, comfortable with non-verbal children. Willing to work with family’s with kids of all abilities and ages. (Infants as well) Reliable safe vehicle. Love pets, I have 2 dogs of my own. Also, willing to tutor, help with homework or any online learning. I don’t mind light cleaning or laundry, love to cook, especially for kids, as well as picky eaters.

I grew up in an in-home daycare, so caring for little ones has always come naturally to me. Four years ago I took a job in a daycare that sparked that same joy and passion for childcare that I experienced in my mom's daycare. In my spare time, I love to spend time outdoors. I enjoy hiking, camping, and swimming! I recently acquired a Spanish Language and History degree and have been fluent for over 20 years. I have years of experience and have worked in a daycare before, watching up to 8 children at once, and up to 3 infants at once. I have extensive experience with children under 2.

Covid Vaccinated -I am a Bright Nanny that is seeking a set fulltime or part time nanny position. I just finished a 4.5 year position and so I’m open to a temp position. 20 plus years of babysitting and 16 years of being a professional nanny. Warm and engaging, super safe and playful at the same time. I am known to be amazing with twins, nanny shares, infant and toddler care and mutliples/ siblings.

Our highly qualified, experienced, and loving nanny is available! The children Christine currently looks after are starting school, so she is looking for a new family. Christine has watched our school-aged children for over a year for occasional date night, overnight and/or weekend sitting. She has also house-sat for us for extended periods of time. In all cases, we have found her to be reliable and an asset to our family. Christine is always engaged with our children and willing to get down on their level to play with them in whatever their chosen activity; whether it be playing tennis, reading them stories, creating art, or simply playing with their toys. She also offers her own suggestions for adventures and entertainment to keep them busy and happy. My children are always so excited to hear that Christine is coming over.

Hi! My name is Trianae (tree-on-ahhh) though many find it easier to call me Ana. I am new to Lake Tahoe and relocated to Truckee with my three year old labradoodle, Moose. I’ve been a realtor in Los Angeles for 20+ years and currently prepping for the Nevada broker exam. I don’t have don’t have a family of my own yet, but I am a godmother and favorite auntie to a few young adults and seek opportunities to mentor every chance I get. I am passionate about volunteering and giving back to the community. I proudly serve on the board at a women’s shelter and volunteer my time hosting art therapy workshops. The participants are children of all ages from toddlers to teens. These rewarding experiences have conditioned me to effortlessly entertain more than one child when needed while providing a fun team experience for all. I’m a Southern California native raised in desert and the beach but I am just as comfortable in the snowy mountains. This year I happily traded warm weather, winter beach days, and year round paddle boarding adventures to experience seasons and exceed my record of 16 ski days this season. Looking forward to a snowy season to ski, ice skate, snow shoe, and explore other winter activities. love crafts, games, race cars, tea parties, park picnics, make-believe, and outdoor activities. I love to cook and bake and can successfully please most the discerning little critics with my creative presentations. I am a team player and happy to help out in any way I can. Please let me know how I can help you and your family.

Hellllo There ☺️🌻My name is Lindsey. I began working in childcare babysitting as a teen then in childcare 17 years ago. I worked @ an amazing pre school in Reno NV called London Bridges. We were very small & family oriented w just 4 class rooms, a 2, 3, & 4 yr old room + an accredited kindergarten class for the 5 yr olds as well as a private swim center next door. I was in the 4yr old room where we mainly focused on getting the children ready to begin reading. Each week we had a theme & a curriculum we had to write that had to include time for motor skills, color + shape identification, letter recognition + sounds, counting + numbers,music,science, arts, and socialization. I loved my class & my School so much. Everyone there was a huge blessing. After working there for a year, I left for a year then went back for another year. After that I went to school & stopped working for a little while. Then I took a position @ a well respected in home daycare but left after just a few months for I felt the school was too harsh on the kids. I prefer to gently redirect rather than discipline or threaten negative consequence. I personally don’t think children under the age of 5 understand discipline. It’s a cruel way to lead considering they are children & don’t know any better yet. From there I went back to school for art history & worked a variety of jobs. Mainly in service, eventually finding my way back to childcare some time around 2016. I took a position at a school called The Child Garden in the 4 year old Room. My best friend had been there for several years & had strong relationships with all of the family’s. The experience was an absolute blast. After this I left child care to pursue a career in arts + history. Specifically working for the Nevada Historical Society while also volunteering at an all ages Art + music space in Reno. We organized art shows, concerts, lectures & workshops for all ages w our biggest audience being kids 12-16 yrs old. We did everything from painting workshops, themed bingo nights, art shows + receptions, to rock n roll shows, mentorships, events at museums.. Pretty much anything & everything we could think of to try & give kids a place to be where they could learn, express themselves & feel heard in a safe + healthy environment. (Away from bars + casinos) I participated in the mentorship program as well as was in the gallery committee where we had to plan a years worth of shows for 2 in house galleries and 6 satellite galleries.

My name is Lili. I am a recent graduate of UCLA. Growing up I was one of five girls in the family; which proved very beneficial when it comes to my experience with kids. I have over 7 years of experience working with kids from either babysitting neighborhood kids or through my volunteer and work positions. From 2013-2015, I have worked as a snows ports instructor with a non-profit organization called Achieve Tahoe that provided affordable and adaptive recreational activities for participants with all types of disabilities ranging from spinal cord injuries to autism. My position at the ski school was to assist in ski lessons for kids with disabilities ranging from the age of 5-15 years old. In the summer of 2015 I worked as a belayer at Diablo Rock Gym. There I ran the kids summer rock climbing program, teaching kids how to have fun and be safe while indoor rock climbing. On weekends I would belay for birthday parties and private lessons. Since I am gone for the majority of the year for college, I work there on the occasionally school breaks. The summer after my first year at UCLA, I worked as a live-in nanny for a family in Elk Grove, CA. My duties included feeding, bathing, and providing the overall care for a five-month-old baby girl and her four-year-old sister. On a side note, I am a very active person; during my free time, I love to rock climb, hike and do yoga. I am looking for some part-time babysitting jobs in between classes and on weekends in order to help pay for school. I am a very passionate person and I love working with kids.
