Find an after school nanny in Troutdale, OR

I love kids! I worked for 20 years as an occupational therapist, about 10 years working with kids birth through age 5 who had developmental delays and/or sensory issues, fine and gross motor delays. We worked as a team and OT/PT/speech, and early childhood teachers/specialists coached each other in the basics. For about eight years, I also worked with kids ages 6 to 16 years of age. I trained in child/human development & did child care for about 10 years (a few months to 13 years). I enjoy creating a safe, fun, nurturing environment and engaging children through language, reading, walks, age-appropriate play, physical & tabletop play, art, helping with cooking/baking. I am very responsible and dependable, flexible, easy-going, loving, attentive and fun! For the last year, I’ve been working as a caregiver for two adults and loving it; I’d love transitioning to caring for children. Generally, I am available during the day, M-F and evenings & Saturdays by appointment. Pet care is negotiable/reasonable. References are available upon request. I hope to hear from you soon! Kirsten

Hi! My name is Jalina, and I’m currently finishing up my bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I’ve always loved spending time with children and find it incredibly rewarding to support their growth, creativity, and emotional development. My background in psychology helps me better understand children’s needs and behaviors, and I approach each child with patience, empathy, and care. I’m reliable, responsible, and always bring a positive attitude, whether we’re doing homework, playing games, or winding down with a story. I’d be honored to be a trusted part of your child’s day! :)

My name is Krystin. I have 13 years of experience working in licensed child care facilities and I've had the chance to work with all age groups, from infants to school-age kids. My favorite thing about working with children is watching their face light up when that concept they've been working on finally clicks. I've spent a lot of time planning and implementing curriculum, helping kids build social and emotional skills, and making sure their basic needs are taken care of throughout the day. I also recently earned my state certification in early childhood education, which has really strengthened my knowledge of child development and best practices. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified. I'm easygoing, patient, and excel in creating positive parent and child relationships. My goal is to create a safe, fun environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I'm happy to discuss anything further or answer any questions.
