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, there! I’m Mia! My experience with children started young, being the oldest of a large family! I also have worked as a nanny for a variety of families in the past and always enjoyed my time! I take a more “screen-free” approach to my time with your children (arts and crafts, anyone?). I am a creative person myself so I enjoy drawing and painting, building blocks and reading! Also open to whatever works with your unique family’s needs. I have experience pet sitting and dog walking and am comfortable with dogs, cats, lizards and other kinds of small animals!

Mia is kind and gentle and really wonderful with our 7 month old, keeping her engaged with books and toys. Mia also helps out around the house during nap time which we really appreciate. We look forward to working with you more!

Hello all! My name is Krysta and I'm on the look out for a new family! I've been in childcare for almost 9 years and a private nanny for almost 7 years. I do have a 2.5 year old boy (06/03/2021) who has come along with me since he was 8 weeks old. Before I was a nanny I was a lead at a popular Portland based in-home daycare where I oversaw the care of 16 infants and 3 other workers. Our ratio was 4:1. I have experience with multiples and my last nanny share job was with 4 kiddos- a set of twins, a singleton and my own son, Theo. I love creating long term bonds with children along with their families as I see myself as an extension of them. Some of my skills are as follows: • CPR and first aid trained and in the ORO database, clean driving record with a safe and reliable car. • Supporting children in play activities, meals and snacks, hygiene and socialization. • Assisting with light housekeeping duties as well as running errands. Organization and cleaning up the home after activities by picking up toys and straightening up play rooms. • Building positive and nurturing environments to support child's social and emotional growth. • Preparing tasty and healthy meals for children to encourage good eating habits. • Engaging with children on an age-appropriate level. Balancing playtime to help support development of fine motor, and cognitive skills Getting outside, puddle jumping, singing silly songs, dancing crazy dances, block building, imagination play, arts and crafts are some of my favorite things

Hello there, hope this finds you well. Looking for a temp/part time nanny? I may very well be the nanny for you. I am a trained and qualified nanny. My schooling was completed in England, some 20+ years ago, where i completed my NNEB, since then I have worked for numerous families, both here and abroad. Being a nanny is something I enjoy. Guiding and helping children learn and grow through play is extremely rewarding, as is helping parents/families navigate the wonders of parenthood/ work/ life. I have great references. I am currently working for a family in Lake Oswego. These guys I have been working with for the last 16yrs. They have 3 children, who are now all school age. I work all week day afternoons with them, and some school holidays. I am currently looking for temp/ part time work. I have weekday mornings available, some evenings, and weekends. I'll be sure to keep the calendar updated, but feel free to ask if i have availability not shown. What do I do in my free time...spend time with friends. I love hiking, reading, yoga, exploring the coast. Getting to see live music, trying the wonderful food Portland has to offer, and gardening.( currently thinking about the planting plan for said garden) I also like to plan a trip back to England every other year. If that doesn't happen, then Hawaii is never far from my mind. Ps, not sure where the senior care came from, but I am not proficient in that field. Just letting you know. Thanks.

Hi, my name is Hannah and I love working with kids! I have over 17 years of collective experience in a variety of different child care positions, including summer camps, babysitting, and nannying. I previously worked as a preschool teacher at a Waldorf school. Kids are fun, wise, and inspire me to be imaginative and creative, and that's why I love working with them. Safety, patience, and creativity are what feel sparkly and important to me when I'm watching your children. I have a Master's degree in urban planning and am currently undergoing Waldorf Educator training. My other interests include herbalism, birding, painting and drawing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
