Find an after school nanny in Portland, OR

Hi there! My name is Meagan, I am 33 years old and I just moved out to the Portland area from NYC. I am available for babysitting, senior care, pet care, and household services. I absolutely love kids and dogs. I have been babysitting children from infant to middle school since high school. I was a camp counselor for a few years and most recently I was the full time nanny for two toddler boys aged 3 and 1. I grew up with dogs in my family and have cared for friends and family dogs since a young age. I also have a great respect for the elderly and enjoy helping them. I volunteered at an adult day care for a summer but have no other professional experience.

I’m looking for a nanny position where I can build a consistent, long-term relationship with a family and become a supportive, dependable presence in the home. I bring several years of both informal and professional, hands-on childcare experience, rooted in a lifelong foundation of caregiving. Raised in a family of female educators, I grew up surrounded by teaching, mentorship, and patience, and these values continue to shape how I care for children today. My background includes work as a private babysitter, part-time nanny, elementary after-school aide, church nursery assistant, and camp counselor. I also come from a large, close-knit family with 11 nieces and nephews, where I’ve played an active role in caregiving, including managing daily routines, preparing meals around dietary restrictions, supporting nap schedules, and guiding play across developmental stages. My experience has shaped me into a calm, responsible, and dependable presence. I’m best suited for families with up to three children, comfortable with pets, and currently focused on roles with toddlers and school-aged children rather than infant care. I value consistency, trust, and open communication, and aim to create a home environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow.

Hi! My name is Maddie, I’m a dedicated and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of professional experience caring for children of all ages. I have basic medical training, including a BLS certification and CNA training, so safety and preparedness are always top priorities. I love supporting kids through hands-on, Montessori-inspired learning, because in my opinion children learn best by doing, exploring, and engaging with the world around them. I enjoy planning fun outings and little adventures, bringing along crafts and creative activities that spark curiosity and imagination. I have a reliable and safe SUV and a clean driving record, and am happy to transport kiddos as needed.I also prepare nutritious, kid friendly meals and when possible have the kids helping with each step. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment where children feel supported, confident, and excited to learn. I also have plenty of experience running errands, housekeeping, and meal prepping. As well as pet care, and general household management. I’d be happy to take on any of these rolls as needed.

I have experience with newborn care, toddler development, meal prep, allergies/food sensitivities, and open communication with families. I also come from a culinary professional background and love creating healthy meals and engaging learning experiences for children. I strive to create a calm, nurturing, and supportive environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and loved. Please feel free to message me for more information, references, or my resume! 💛

I love all forms of art, I have spent a lot of time drawing, painting, wire wrapping, playing guitar, reading and aerial silks. I grew up in Northern California, and just recently moved to Portland. I love spending time with children, and I very strongly believe in positive reinforcement, helping children to find their passions and artistic expression, as well as attachment based child care, I believe that infants and young children need someone who is emotionally available and attentive to their individual needs.
