Hi my name is Sam (they/them/ any pronouns) and I bring over five years of hands-on childcare experience and a truly heartfelt approach to the families I support. I have worked as a live-in nanny, assistant teacher, and even a lice technician, giving myself a well-rounded, practical skill set and a calm confidence in a variety of situations. In addition to childcare. I currently work part-time as a hairstylist while continuing their passion for nannying. I have experience supporting both adults and children with disabilities and neurodivergent needs. As someone who is neurodivergent myself , I bring deep empathy, understanding, and patience into their work. Families often appreciate my naturally calm presence, gentle demeanor, and their ability to create a safe, steady environment for children to thrive. Sam has cared for children ranging from 3-month-old infants to 13-year-olds and genuinely loves engaging with kids at every stage. Sam is creative, enjoys imaginative and pretend play, and meets children where they are — honoring their personalities, emotions, and developmental needs along the way. Clear, open communication is very important to me. I value honesty and collaboration with families and believes strong partnerships are built through trust and transparency. Above all, I truly love working with children and building meaningful, lasting connections with the families they support. I would be delighted to connect and answer any questions you may have.

“Sam sat my two dogs (14 week old puppy and an 8 year old). Sam listened well when I was giving instructions about my care preferences. Sam took them for a walk and was attentive to their needs for the time Sam was taking care of them. I will definitely work with Sam again!”

Hi there! I have a bachelors in both English and Social Justice from Dominican University of California, and am currently a JD Candidate at Lewis &Clark Law School. I grew up watching my siblings before moving on to paid jobs with family friends and cousins, and when I started college I started nannying more seriously. When I lived in LA, I worked with several different families for small weekly jobs and worked with one family four to five days a week, taking their four kids to numerous activities and after school events. Since moving to Portland two years ago, I spent the last year and a half nannying for a family with 10 year old twins. I have experience working with infants up to 12 years old, and after tutoring high school kids I’m sure I could handle teenagers as well. Let me know if I can answer any questions, I can’t wait to work with you!

Hello families! I’m excited to meet you and your kiddos! I’m Maria but children like using my nickname, Ria 😊 I've been in Portland for most of my life. I love it here, especially the proximity to all the natural beauty and the ocean. I'm a passionate hiker and always chasing the next waterfall. I have 20+ years of experience in childcare, from infants to teens. I have been co-parenting my young niece and nephew for 5 years, I was a foster mother for a year and I’ve cared for many other children through the years, so I have a wide range of experience. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing environment for children to experience their journeys. I encourage children to express themselves and explore the world through creation, imagination, playtime, activities, movement, games, singing, exploring nature, reading and most of all, FUN! I love a good little dance party. I will keep your child(ren) engaged during our time together! My belief is that children are simply young people exploring their way through this wonderful and sometimes challenging world. What an honor for us as adults to help guide them on their journeys. I am happy to prepare meals and clean up during my visit as it relates to your child’s care, but my priority is to focus on your child(ren) during our time together. I’m available for some house cleaning for an additional charge (at naptime or after bedtime, for example). I’m available for part time and occasional care, including overnight stays. I’m also available for pet and housesitting. I’m an excellent communicator and will keep you informed throughout your time away, as frequently or infrequently as you prefer. I have a reliable car, I’m punctual and I’m flexible if you need to be out later than planned (most times). Please reach out if you have any questions or special circumstances or requests. I look forward to meeting you!

“Wonderful and communicative and easy going.”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
