Hello, I have time in my schedule to help you and your family if you would like to reach out. I would be happy to fill in on short notice also. I have volunteered within children's ministries and am an Oregon Humane animal shelter volunteer. I am also going to be volunteering within the Lake Oswego School District. I work for a college M-F so am mostly available on the weekend. I graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science in Wildlife Science and rode on the Dressage Team while I was a student. Later I earned my MBA while working full time. I have family in the area that I like to spend time with. I also enjoy the outdoors, school and learning new things. Hope to hear from you!
I am a Portland State University graduate with a bachelors of arts in Social Science, minor in psychology and Spanish. I have worked as a Girl Scouts summer activities leader for 23 girls grades first-fourth. As an activities leader, I facilitated science, art and life skills/healthy living. I love creating safe spaces for children to express themselves and be creative. I am a very family oriented person. I am the oldest of three and have spent a lot of my time helping my family raise the small ones in our family. I am currently only available Friday afternoons and weekends. I look forward to getting to know you and meeting your family!
“Karen was communicative, prompt and professional. My kids liked her and said they would want her to babysit again.”
Hello 😊! My name is Jaclyn I am brand new to UrbanSitter! I am a 21 year old mom to my first child. I have lots of experience with handling baby’s and toddlers from many ages! I come from a big family of 13! So I enjoy everything from taking care of kids to taking care of pets/animals. In addition, I do have a nonnegotiable for having to bring my child with me. She is a very sweet three month old baby who mostly sleeps all day and would not interfere with me taking care of/ watching over your child. I used to be full time associate at In n Out Burger in Keizer! I am very used to and can handle chaotic environments. They do not bother me in the slightest! But since having my baby girl I am needing to drop down to part time and or hoping to quit soon, sticking to just babysitting/part time nanny. Qualifications: Child care experience CPR certified Food handlers permit With me I also will always do house cleaning that comes with NO extra charge! :) I believe it should be a basic requirement for when being a babysitter/nanny. I know how relaxing it can be to come to a clean home! Side note: please be specific with me if you would NOT like me to clean a place in the home or would prefer me to leave stuff alone! :)
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! My name is Reegan, and I’m a nurturing, creative, and experienced caregiver based in the Portland/Wilsonville area. I’ve worked with children and families in many capacities over 10+ years—as a certified birth and postpartum doula, through nonprofit outreach, and in both home and professional settings. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. I bring a calm, supportive presence and love creating meaningful, screen-free experiences for kids—whether it’s imaginative play, crafts, storytime, or outdoor fun. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, tidying up, dishes, laundry, and organizing, as well as pet care. I’m dependable, warm, and truly love supporting families in a hands-on, heart-centered way. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
