Find an after school nanny in West Linn, OR

Hello! My name is Chantal and I am a 51 yr old private caregiver with many years of experience. I have worked with clients with dementia, alzheimers, parkinsons, MS, stroke victims that have caused severe limitations, and the elderly. I started as a volunteer in retirement facilities, and progressed to paid work. I have worked as part of caregiving teams, and as an individual. I also took care of my grandparents, father and aunt, throughout their end of life. I have a passion for caregiving, and strongly believe that everyone deserves to be cared for with respect, compassion and dignity, no matter what stage or age. I have a great sense of humour and approach my work with a light, warm energy and a little bit of "laughter medicine". I have references to attest to my professionalism and care. A little about me personally - I'm originally from Australia, and I moved to Portland with my (now ex) husband in 2011. I am a single parent (divorced in 2017) to 2 kids, aged 20 and 23, and I am trying to help them through college and launch their adult lives. I started this work by volunteering at retirement homes, reading and just trying to be "good company" to those who may not have it often. I am also a certified pilates instructor, and work mainly 1:1 with clients (mostly 65+ - they call me the "old person whisperer" at the studio) helping them gain strength and confidence with functional movement using the pilates system and equipment. I have a wonderful (and neurotic) little boston terrier called Hoagie (like the bread roll) and I enjoy all things textile related (sewing, crochet, embroidery) and food/cooking related. I've lived and traveled all over Asia - Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and China, and a little of Europe - Barcelona, and London. I would love to see more of the world. I am also about to embark on an "End of life Doula" training as I have a particular interest in end of life care.

Hi family members! If you are looking for a nurturing and patient caretaker for your kid, your elderly parent, or even for your fur baby- I’m your gal! With 7+ years of experience in being a nanny for a wonderful family with three boys, it’s safe to say I’m a seasoned nanny. We played nerf wars, football, gave them pointers in basketball, played madden, cooked for them, went to sport games with them- we truly had a blast! I do miss being around kids, which is why I am looking to care for a special little soul(s) out there! Side gigs I do from time to time is dog walk/sit for friends and I LOVE spending time with elderly humans, their wisdom, quirks, and particularity in things— all warms my heart.

Hi families! 😊 My name is Anya! I am CPR certified, background checked through the State of Oregon, bilingual in Russian and English, and have 3+ years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. My childcare style is inspired by Montessori and play-based learning, with a focus on fostering independence, creativity, and confidence through age-appropriate activities and structured routines. 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! 💛

Hi! I’m Casey — a highly responsible, energetic, and experienced caregiver with many years of hands-on work in childcare, senior care, and household support. I worked as a nanny throughout my college years, served as a CNA in a nursing home, and previously worked as a lifeguard — so safety and attentiveness are second nature to me. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, supporting seniors with daily needs, and managing multiple household responsibilities with care and professionalism. I also speak Spanish and am a safe, vigilant driver. Friends’ children affectionately know me as “Auntie Casey,” which captures both my warmth and reliability. I love to cook, am happy to help with cleaning and organization, and genuinely enjoy creating a calm, fun, and structured environment. I’m currently seeking temporary work for the next 4 weeks before I move overseas to get married. I’m flexible with scheduling and eager to support families during this season. Looking forward to connecting!

Hi! My name is Abigail, and I’m a college student at the University of Utah. I love working with kids and creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment for them. I have experience working with children through kids’ golf and baseball camps, volunteering, and my involvement with Unified Sports, where I worked closely with students with and without disabilities. These experiences have helped me become patient, responsible, understanding, and comfortable working with different personalities and needs. I’m also studying education and hope to become an elementary school teacher in the future! I’m dependable, caring, energetic, and happy to help with activities, meals, homework, pets, and keeping things organized.
