Meet Jessica
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
Currently NOT available M-F 9 AM to 5 PM. Available for weekend and evening care only. I am a great babysitter! Not to toot my own horn, of course.. But with three younger siblings, I have plenty of experience. My youngest siblings and I have a 16-year age gap, so I spent years as a teen watching my baby siblings, meaning I have many years under my belt. I'm great with kids of all ages and with multiple children at once. My work experience with children ranges widely. I was a summer camp counselor in 2015. There, I worked with children ranged 2nd-8th grade. I have done before and after school care for the 2014-15 and 15-16 school years at a private school for kids K-8 in Reno, working with up to 50 children at once. I also have worked as a behavior interventionist one-on-one with children within the spectrum Read more of autism. I have established babysitting contacts/references in Reno, San Jose, Camarillo, and more. I have experience watching/taking care of children from newborn and up, as well as children with special needs. I can cook and clean. I am Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED/First Aid certified through Red Cross. And I am always willing to learn something new! I'm good with pets as well. So those dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and fuzzies have nothing to worry about. I can take care of them, too! I have a B.S. in Biology.

Jessica is awesome. She watched my boys short notice and they had a good time with her. If she can watch my 4 year old with down syndrome, you know she has what it takes. He is an active boy and needs constant watching. Thank you Jessica.

I can't say enough good things about Jessica! I came to Reno for a convention and hired Jessica for eight days. My daughter (13 mos.) took to her immediately, and had a great time with her! Jessica showed up promptly each morning, was flexible in terms of her hours (how late she could stay each day), and even found a friend to babysit for another couple with a 14-mo-old who needed a sitter one night of the convention. Jessica is very comfortable with babies, and mine definitely loved her! They played, watched TV, went for walks (not much outside, as it was very hot), and generally had a great time. I would 100% recommend Jessica to anyone in the area who needs a sitter/nanny, and would hire her again any time I needed someone in the area.
