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.

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!

Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love to work with your family! I am currently living in Salem and work in Portland where I manage a dance studio and work with children of all ages. I love to dance, be outdoors, cook, and listen to music. I am the second oldest of five siblings and I have always loved to be around kids. I have ample babysitting and petsitting experience from helping with my siblings growing up, family friends, and families I have worked with through Urban Sitters. I am comfortable with all ages, driving, petsitting, house sitting, and doing household chores.

I am an herbalist, nanny, and artist! I have been caring for and nannying for children for about 8 years. I come from a big family and have always been super nurturing and compassionate. I love hiking, yoga, running, cooking, and making art! I love spending time outside and love to go on walks with the kiddos.
