Meet college nannies and sitters from University of Oregon

I was born and raised in Hawaii, where I was blessed enough to help raise my younger brother and sister. My mom is a K-2 teacher, so I have also helped her at her school for a few years :) I moved to Eugene in 2022 to attend school at the University of Oregon in Environmental Sciences and am now a recent post-graduate living in Vancouver. I will be starting as a seasonal Outdoor Educator for MESD in a month and then going to Costa Rica for an internship as a research assistant for primates at Rescate Wildlife Rescue Center in November. I love the outdoors and the youth, but am also experienced with pets. I enjoy housework, yard work, moving projects, and any ways I can help.

Hi! I’m Kira, a dependable and caring sitter with professional experience working with children of a variety of ages and needs. I’m currently a graduate student in Applied Behavior Analysis and work in pediatric ABA, where I support children with communication, social skills, play, routines, and daily activities. I’m especially comfortable with little ones and really enjoy working with children ages 3–6. I love creating fun and whimsical activities, whether that’s arts and crafts, playing games, reading, imaginative play, or simply joining in on whatever your child is excited about. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves. I’m happy to help with playtime, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, simple meals, bedtime routines, and cleanup. I’m also comfortable following individual routines and instructions from parents, and I’m CPR certified. My goal is always for children to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely have a good time while they’re with me. I’m responsible, communicative, and will treat your home and your family with the same respect I’d want for my own.

Hi families, I’m Olivia! Here’s a little about me: • Education: Graduated from the University of Oregon last year with a major in Advertising and a minor in Psychology (Go Ducks!!). •Relocation: I am moving from a small town (Hood River, Oregon) to San Francisco on September 11 and am looking for caregiving work in the Bay Area. • Daycare experience: Worked in a daycare for a couple of years, supporting children of various ages. • Big sister role: Helped raise my younger sister who is 12 years younger than me, from bottles and homework to activities and routines. • Babysitting and dog sitting: Years of experience caring for kids and pets. I also lived with two golden retrievers who taught me patience and responsibility. • Strengths: Reliable, caring, organized, fun-loving, and calm under pressure. • What I love: Creating safe, engaging environments where kids feel happy, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. • New here: This is my first time on UrbanSitter, but I bring a strong background and a genuine passion for caregiving.

Hello! I am a caregiver with 8+ years of experience. I have watched children from the ages of newborn to teens. I cater my service to the child's needs and curate a unique experience. I also have experience caring for pets, both cats and dogs. Please reach out and see if I am the right fit for your family.

Hi! My name is Zaylee, and I'm a student going into my junior year at the University of Oregon. I love working with children and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where they can learn, play, and feel comfortable. One of my most valuable experiences was working as an aide at Moss Street Children's Center in Eugene, where I cared for children ages 1–5. I assisted in multiple classrooms, supported daily routines, led activities, and learned how to meet the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. When I return to California during my school breaks, I babysit for a wonderful family who has continued to invite me back each summer and winter. Building that lasting relationship has been incredibly rewarding and has strengthened my passion for childcare. I'm also lucky to have four nieces and one nephew under the age of 12, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. Whether we're doing crafts, reading books, playing outside, or helping with homework, I love keeping kids engaged while making sure they feel safe and supported. I'm CPR certified, have a current Food Handler's License, and have reliable transportation. I'm happy to help with school pick-ups, driving to activities, homework, light housekeeping, running errands, and preparing simple meals and snacks. I believe every family has different needs, and I'm flexible, dependable, patient, and eager to help however I can. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while making sure their children have a fun, caring, and positive experience. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hi there! My name is Grace, and I'm a first-year college student who loves helping kids learn and grow while having fun! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays after 2:30pm and Tuesdays and Thursdays after 1:30pm, but I’m flexible depending on what a family needs. From babysitting to housework, I am here to offer positive and reliable support wherever I go! While I am somewhat new to professional child care, I have extensive babysitting experience with younger family members and children of family friends, and have taken care of + instructed K-12 students. I love playing with kids, finding crafts to do, and making mini besties with every child in my care! I can also help with any after-school work or house chores that may be needed! I have worked as a teacher's aide in elementary classes, served as a camp counselor for Oregon’s outdoor school program for 2 years, and volunteered with the survival swim program in Salem. I am CPR and First Aid Certified, as well as DSP certified, and have experience providing academic and behavior support to kids with a wide range of mental disabilities. If families are looking for someone to care for kids with special needs, I am prepared! I am comfortable with all kinds of personalities and ready to create a supportive and positive environment for your little ones as they learn and explore, while also taking some tasks off your to-do list!
