Find a babysitter in Lake Oswego, OR

Hello! I have competed the Red Cross Basic Babysitting and First Aid courses. I like playing with kids and making sure they have fun in a safe environment. :)

Hello, I have over 13 years experience in caregiving both with the elderly and children. I had been a nanny for multiple families. I have 3 nieces ranging in ages from 10 to 21 and continue to be an integral part of their upbringing. The last family I nannied for I was with for over 5 years. We are still very much in contact & I see them at least once a month for family dinner. I pride myself on my communication skills & I am great with children of all ages. I am a proud pet owner of a 16 year old dog, we’ve been together for 12 years and she is still very healthy and very happy!

Hi, I’m Charlie! I’ve lived in Portland for about 3 years now, but I am originally from Massachusetts. I am currently a senior psychology student at Reed College and I am planning to go to medical school post-grad. I have worked with kids of many ages, either through volunteering with schools (tutoring), or looking after family members and children of close family friends. I plan to work with kids in behavioral analyst positions, too, once I finish my undergrad degree. I am also taking some art courses and American Sign Language this summer; I love crafting, making art, and learning new things. In my free time I play music and sing. I unfortunately do not have a car or a driver’s license, but do plan on getting my license sometime this summer. I would call myself a very responsible, innovative, and caring person. I am also very attentive to detail, as as well as being CPR certified! Looking forward to working with you and your little ones to make sure you know they are taken care of when you are not able to be home (or just want to take a night off!) I have housekeeping experience, cooking experience (I worked for a private chef in the hamptons for a little while), cleaning experience, pet care experience, and senior care experience. Please let me know if any of these services would be additionally helpful to you!!

Hi! My name is Maya! I love playing and learning alongside children and am highly patient and compassionate. I currently work as a part-time preschool teacher with kids 2-5 years old. I work with an awesome staff supervising 15 children where I help prepare lunches and snacks, assist in toileting when necessary, and engage in creative indoor/outdoor play. I have experience working with kids on the spectrum and other neurodivergence. I'm registered in the Oregon Central Background Registry and am pediatric CPR + first aid certified. I also occasionally babysit my neighbor's child, a 7-year old. We like to play outside, read, harvest fruits from the neighborhood, talk, and build. I love to be with kids outside and in garden spaces and have led volunteers at the children's garden at Wapato Island Farm. I grew up with five siblings and I believe it has made me a good listener and a compassionate mediator. In high school I regularly volunteered at my old Kindergarten-8th grade school. In college I worked at my school's daycare looking after kids mainly 6 months to 5 years in age. I drive up to WA every month to help my sister with her now 3 years old and I feel so lucky to be present for his different developmental stages. I love working with kids because they are learning about themselves and the world for the first time and I think that is very special. They are also great conversationalists. I value listening, kindness, empathy, and being silly. In my free time I study plant medicine, guitar, and Bahasa Indonesia.

Hi! I’m Andrea, a mom to an energetic 4-year-old and a professional childcare provider with over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including children with special needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I currently work professionally with children every day. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable while parents have peace of mind. I enjoy reading stories, arts and crafts, outdoor play, educational activities, and helping children build confidence through positive encouragement. Through my work in ABA, I have experience supporting children with autism and other developmental needs using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children, preparing simple meals and snacks, homework help, bedtime routines, and keeping your family’s schedule running smoothly. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children. As a mom myself, I treat every child with the same kindness, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family!
