I've worked within the Hillsboro School District for the past 5 years for various elementary schools. I have nannying experience and pet-sitting experience. I enjoy working with all ages and am here to help make your life easier!
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!
Hi, Karla here. I m retired from elementary/ special education in the classroom and school bus driving. I enjoy people, I am a lighthearted person to be around. Reasonably fit for a senior. I have current First Aid and CPR. For children, I m a grandmother and enjoy the ages and stages. I am able to help with homework, basic meal preparation. Problem solving and accountability. As a female, infants are something we deal with off snd on throughout life. For seniors, I m a friend and assistant. I have cared for a husband who was down for 4 years. Mostly looking to provide respite care. Or 1-2 half days/ week. Housekeeping and meal preparation as needed. Prefer cats over dogs, due to size and rambunctious nature. In business dealings, my approach is win-win. If I can be of assistance to you, let’s help each other out. Yours truly, Karla
Hi! After successfully completing my time in the Navy, I'm currently working as a Field Service Engineer at a tech company but want to save more money for college and law school. Growing up, I took care of my sister off and on while my parents were out. When I turned 15, I started working as a lifeguard at my hometown's water park. And when I was 19, I worked for 6 months as a lifeguard at Disney World's Blizzard Beach and Disney's Contemporary Resort. I have spent most of my life taking care of kids and keeping them entertained but safe. I really enjoyed that work and hope I can achieve that again for you and your child.
Hi! I’m a nursing student with experience caring for older adults, and I’d love the opportunity to work with children too. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy helping people feel comfortable and cared for. I also do house cleaning and can help keep your home tidy and organized. I speak English, Ukrainian, and Russian. I’d love to learn what your family needs and how I can help!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
