Kaili $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi Portland families! My name’s Kaili! (kay-lee). I work part time at an audiology clinic and am looking to supplement my employment with childcare, both for the income and the fun + engagement not always found in an office. I have experience with a wide range of ages (infancy - teens) and enjoy coming up with activities for enrichment such as art + craft projects, puzzles, sensory stations, board games, neighborhood walks, and story time. Also nothing wrong with a movie + pizza night sometimes :) I’m most consistently available Tuesdays and Thursdays but will consider all gigs, and can be flexible for ongoing care with the right family. Rates depend on age, activity, number of children etc. Looking forward to hearing from you, Thanks! Kaili

👶 Nurse & Nanny Looking for a Wonderful Family 💛 Hi families! I’m Cemile — originally from Turkey, where I worked 4 years as a nurse in the Intensive Care Department, including time in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU). For the past 2 years here in Portland, I’ve been a full-time nanny caring for a sweet little girl (from 6 months old to now 2.5 years). ✨ I have my own car and a safe driving background, so I’m fully flexible with distance and available to support a loving family during the week. I’m preparing to start my Master’s in Nursing soon and would love to care for little ones in a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. ✨ Available: Mon–Fri ✨ Rate: $25/hr+ ✨ Experience: Infant & toddler care, daily routines, meal prep, nap schedules, developmental play, and potty training support. I’d love to connect and chat more — feel free to message me or set up a quick FaceTime! Excited to meet a great family 💛

Joravena $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a second-year PCC student pursuing Child Behavioral Health and Social Work. I have about a year of professional early childhood education experience through PCC’s Sabin-Schellenberg ECE program and I’m also currently working toward my ORO credentials and continuing my education in Child Behavioral Health. I have around six years of experience mentoring and supporting youth from newborns through age 16. I’m comfortable with children of all ages, including infants and toddlers, and can help with meals, homework, bedtime routines, activities, light housekeeping, and emotional regulation. I’m also very comfortable with pets and currently have a dog. I’m available for occasional, date-night, and recurring care with advance notice around my school schedule. I’m reliable, patient, and calm under pressure, and I’d love to help your family!

I have a house in the Richmond area and I like to pet sit for dogs. I have a dog myself and she loves other dogs. I’m open to overnight stays or just long afternoons.

"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."
