Find a babysitter in Lake Oswego, OR

Welcome — my name is Michael! I’m an educator, parent, and lifelong caregiver with over 25 years of experience working with children, seniors, plants, and cats. I hold a master’s degree in Public Administration and completed all coursework for a master’s in the Art of Teaching. Over the years, I’ve raised five children and numerous godchildren, coached youth sports, and led art, tutoring, and community programs that center creativity and care. I love the outdoors, plants, cooking, music, and meditation — and I bring that same balance and joy into the homes I support. Families describe me as calm, reliable, and nurturing, with a structured yet easygoing approach that helps everyone feel at ease. I’m happy to cook and do light cleaning, but I’m not a housekeeper — no deep cleaning. I’m great with cats and plants, and I’m still working on overcoming my fear of dogs. I look forward to connecting with families who value kindness, growth, and good energy in their home.

I'm Haley, a 21-year-old originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico, now calling Portland home while I finish my senior year at Lewis and Clark College. I’m studying International Relations and Hispanic Studies and love exploring new cultures and ideas. Babysitting is the perfect way for me to stay balanced during this busy year, while also doing something I truly enjoy. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, starting with families in my neighborhood, and it’s been a big part of my life ever since. Whether it’s after-school care, weekend fun, or much-needed date nights for parents, I love jumping in to help. Two summers ago, I had the amazing experience of being a full-time nanny for two sweet girls, ages 7 and 9. More recently, I’ve taken care of kids from 9 months old to school age, so I’m comfortable with children at all stages. In addition to childcare, I’ve done plenty of pet sitting and house sitting too! I’d describe myself as fun-loving, responsible, and reliable, and I always look forward to building connections and friendships with the kids I care for as I figure out my own path into adulthood. If you’re looking for a sitter who brings both a sense of responsibility and fun, I’d love to be that person for your family. I have my own car and live in a pretty accessible area of Portland, so don't hesitate to reach out!
