I have been recently laid off from my full time sales job and am searching for full time employment. In the meantime, I am open to working and full, part, or one off opportunities until we both find something that works for all parties! I am a college graduate and my interests include board games, traveling, and quality time with family and friends. I look forward to working with you and your family, making connections as we help the little one(s) grow!

I am a Portland native and I worked as a teacher for 4 years. I graduated with my BA from Lewis & Clark College and earned my MAT at the University of Portland. I am currently a volunteer on the board of a nonprofit and am starting up a small online business with an old friend. I enjoy soccer, hiking, singing with my gospel choir, teaching Girl Scouts how to sew, and I’m currently renovating a vintage Airstream. I started baby-sitting as a ten-year-old, and have since worked with children of all ages. Most of my experience is with elementary school age kids, but I love babies and toddlers as well. Please check my calendar for availability. I am primarily available for date nights, not after-school pick-ups. Thanks!

Booked by 2 families in Aurora, OR

New to Portland, OR, I moved here with my husband and two cats from Nashville, TN so I could study naturopathic medicine at NUNM. Before starting medical school, I worked as a professional nanny and part-time babysitter for 4 years after graduating from Vanderbilt University with my bachelors. I’ve cared for children of all ages from infant to pre-teen and we always find a way to have fun and learn new to things! My responsibilities have included meal prep, drop off and pick up from school or camp, morning and nighttime routines, and general tidying of the house. I would describe myself as punctual, professional, and flexible under pressure. I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record. I have also house sat and dog watched for a family I had nannied for, where my duties included checking food and water, administering medicine, and taking her for walks. With my variable school schedule, I’m looking for one-time or part-time childcare or pet-care positions. I hope you find me to be a good fit!

Hello, I’m Ivory! I am an independent college student, I just graduated 2025 at PSU with a bachelor of fine arts! I have taken 4 years of Spanish and would be happy to share basic Spanish vocabulary! I love drawing, painting, ceramics, and am working 7 years so far as a part time ice cream cake decorator. In my free time I enjoy singing, working out, and playing games with friends! I have experience babysitting my 3 nephews, and working with kids at church. I babysat for a girl 5 y/o girl until she was 7 y/o in the mornings getting ready for school with the occasional pickup from school. . I occasionally babysit a nonverbal 4y/o boy with autism since he was 1 year old. I’ve currently been babysitting a 3 year old girl on Saturdays for the last year! I have pet sitting experience too for dogs, cats, fish, and farm animals (I adore my cat Toulouse), I’ve been pet sitting my sisters golden doodle puppy occasionally. I love teaching kids new things and sharing what I’ve learned with them. I’m looking to save more money while doing something that I enjoy! (A bonus is I love cleaning/organizing too and would be happy to help with that!)

“I hired Ivory for ongoing and occasional babysitting for my daughter who is 6. She has been very helpful and kind. She was willing and ready to help with little things that make life so much easier for me as a single parent and make transitions smoother for my daughter.”

Hannah $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hannah, and I’m a senior nursing student at George Fox University. I’ve been caring for children of all ages for the past 7 years, and I’m passionate about child development, safety, and creating a fun, nurturing environment where children can learn and thrive. I’m CPR and BLS certified for adults and pediatrics, and I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. I’m a strong student and would love to help with homework, encourage learning, and find engaging, age-appropriate activities for children. I’m also a great cook and happy to help with meal preparation, tidying up, laundry, and maintaining a clean, organized home. I understand how busy family life can get, and I enjoy being a dependable extra set of hands that parents can trust. Beyond childcare, I have experience in senior care and caring for a wide variety of animals, including large and small dogs, cats, birds, fish, hamsters, and snakes. I’m comfortable adapting to different needs and routines, and I approach every responsibility with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. I’m dependable, organized, proactive, and caring. My nursing education has strengthened my communication skills, responsibility, and ability to stay attentive to others’ needs. Above all, I want the families I work with to feel comfortable knowing their loved ones and homes are in good hands. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted, reliable part of your family’s support system!
