Hello, my name is Stella! I’m a preschool teacher, which I absolutely love! I plan to pursue early elementary teaching and begin a teacher credentialing program in the near future. I’ve worked with children for nearly a decade and truly love what I do. I have experience working with children ages 14 months to 10 years old, though I currently lead teach 3-year-olds. I also have a bachelor’s degree in psychology from University of California, Santa Cruz, which has helped shape my understanding of child development and behavior. I love animals and have three of my own, so I’m more than happy to work with families who have pets. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have my own transportation, and can provide references. I’m reliable, dedicated, and flexible, and I would love the opportunity to expand my childcare experience.

Hi! Im Janessa :) I just moved back home to Eugene, Oregon, from Los Angeles. I’m very excited to connect with families in the area. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and would be happy to share references from families I’ve worked with. I also have 2 years of experience as a Direct Support Professional, where I supported children and adults with intellectual and physical disabilities. With that, I’m patient, compassionate, and able to adapt to different needs. I’m reliable, caring, and love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for kids. I’d love to help your family out!

My name is Hannah, and I’m a dedicated, compassionate caregiver with strong experience working with children and pets and providing household support. I’ve spent several years helping families create safe, nurturing environments where kids can thrive and parents feel at ease. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to preteens, supporting their daily routines, educational development, and emotional needs. Whether it's playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I approach every task with patience, creativity, and consistency. In addition to childcare, I’m also comfortable and experienced with pets. I’ve provided care for dogs and cats, including walking, feeding, play, and basic grooming. Animals respond well to my calm and friendly nature, and I love including them in the daily rhythm of the home. I’m dependable and organized around the house. I can assist with light cleaning, laundry, meal prep, and keeping things running smoothly. I know how important it is to maintain a tidy, stress-free space for kids and parents. People often describe me as nurturing, dependable, and attentive. I take pride in building trust with families and creating a positive, supportive atmosphere where everyone feels respected and cared for.

I am a college student at UO studying political science and legal studies. I love writing, reading, going on walks, doing art (painting and ceramics), and watching movies! I am very patient and understanding, and have babysat kids ages 1-8, but i’m okay with all ages. I have been babysitting a few families back home (Santa Cruz, California) consistently, with the longest time with a family being 4 years. I am able to cook, clean, do laundry, bath time, change diapers, and am open to any other household duties. I am comfortable with any pets, and am able to feed and walk pets. I also have some experience both house and pet sitting.

In the past I have provided full-time summer care and part-time support during the school year for two children aged 1 and 5 until their family relocated. I managed all aspects of childcare, from changing diapers and tidying up to ensuring they had structured nap times and engaging in enriching art projects. I also briefly babysat one of the children when they were six months old. I also occasionally babysat a 7, 11 and 12 year old every couple weeks for a few hours. During this time me and the children would plan fun activities such as baking cookies and art as well as playing outside and reading. I was in charge of making their dinners which were coordinated with the parents and would get them ready for bed and put to sleep. During the summer I worked as a summer camp counselor at the YMCA for ages pre-k to 8th grade. During this time I would coordinate day plans with my Lead and assist in activities. Some of the camps I worked in were basketball, soccer, science, football, and cooking. My job included keeping the kids engaged, doing head counts, leading activities, ensuring campers safety, and coming up with quick solutions when plans were altered last minute. I also worked as an after school teacher for pre-k and elementary school children. During this time I organize snack and activity plans with coworkers as well as leading lesson plans. I would also keep head count, oversee playground time, follow our daily schedules, help with homework, and keep the children engaged.
