Find an after school nanny in Gaston, OR

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m thrilled to be pursuing my passion for working with children as a nanny. I’m 29, and my love for kids started when I was a teenager babysitting. That experience inspired me to pursue a career in childhood counseling. After taking a detour to become a stay-at-home mom for almost two years following the birth of my daughter, I’m now excited to return to my passion and continue on this fulfilling journey. When I returned back to the workforce, it was in the insurance industry as a licensed insurance producer in Oregon and Washington. Although I enjoy helping people protect what matters most, the challenges of Corporate and the changing world has made me reconsider my path. After five years, I’m eager to once again pursue my degree in childhood counseling while working in a role that aligns with my passions. What I Offer: • Childcare: I provide a positive, nurturing environment that fosters emotional, educational, and social development. • Transportation: I’m comfortable driving children to/from school or extracurricular activities and have a clean driving record. • Homework Support: I assist with grade school level homework and learning activities to support your child’s academic growth. • Parenting Support: Experienced with Gentle Parenting techniques, but I’m happy to follow your preferred parenting style and approach. • Outdoor and Creative Activities: I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and visiting the library with children. • Household Assistance: I’m available to help with cooking, cleaning, and running errands, so you can focus on quality time with your family. • Pet Care: I’m an animal lover and am happy to help with pet care as well. I’m excited to meet you and your family and contribute to a happy, healthy, and enriching environment for your child!

Hi, my name is Alex, and I'm a sophomore at SOU! Im studying education and theatre and have been a classroom helper/babysitter for 4 years! I'm staying in Beaverton until mid-September before returning to school, but I would still love to help out in any way I can!

Hello! My name is Amanda, but many people know me as Bambi. I moved to Los Angeles from Kentucky several years ago and have built my life around caregiving roles—as a nanny, caregiver, and server. I have recently relocated to Oregon, and love it so much! I've always had a nurturing, empathetic presence, and I find deep fulfillment in supporting and enriching the lives of others, especially children. I bring creativity and joy into my caregiving, especially through music—one of my greatest passions. With a background in music, I love incorporating singing, rhythm, and playful learning into my time with kids. I also absolutely love animals! I have experience as a daycare attendant at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether it’s children or pets, I take pride in being attentive, gentle, and tuned in to their needs. I grew up with a strong example in my own home—my mom has been a kindergarten teacher for over 20 years. Being raised by an educator gave me a deep appreciation for child development, structure, and the value of patient, supportive care.

With years of experience caring for homes, pets, and children, I bring reliability, warmth, and professionalism to every family I work with. I began house sitting and babysitting while in high school and have continued to offer these services occasionally as a working professional. I truly enjoy being around children and animals, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s keeping a home organized, ensuring pets are happy and well-cared for, or engaging children in meaningful activities, I approach every responsibility with genuine care and attention to detail.

I am a high school graduate who is currently looking for work with babysitting, because I spent a lot of my childhood doing it unpaid, in that my parents would often visit their friends and bring me along, but I was always 5-6 years older than all of their friends children, so I would end up as the childcare person for the duration of their parties. I’ve always been naturally good at getting along with children, and I have lots of experience with them thanks to the aforementioned parent gatherings. I am looking to go to college next year, where I will be earning a teaching degree before applying to become an elementary school teacher, so I figured that babysitting would be a great part time job to help me get better at interacting with children and childcare situations before I dedicate my life to it. I hope that we can work together and have a good, trusting relationship, parents!
