Find a babysitter in Lake Oswego, OR

Hello everyone! My name is Julia and I’m recent graduate from Oregon State University. I’m offering childcare services, household services, and pet care services. I have childcare experience with multiple-child families, ages 2-12. I’m able to run errands, grocery shop, clean, make meals and snacks, and laundry if requested. For pet care, I have experience with both cats and dogs. I have a cat of my own so I’m well-versed in playing, changing litter, and on-time feeding. I love playing with the animals as well, and will give them great company! I don’t have allergies to any pets. A little more about me: I love to cook new recipes, read fiction books, be out in nature, bird watch, and do arts and crafts. One of my favorite crafts I did as a kid was making fairy houses! You can take bark, leaves, sticks and twigs, moss, and anything else you can find outside (+ hot glue) and make something magical. Pro tip: Dust the top of it with fairy dust (glitter) when the kids go to bed so they wake up to a little fairy surprise!

Hi! I'm Simone, and I'm excited to get back to working directly with families after a few years doing operations work in creative settings and at a nonprofit teaching STEM to kids in Portland. (Turns out I missed the hands on part!) I've got over a decade of experience with kids of all ages: nannying long term and watching kids grow from pre K through second grade, four years at the Children's Creativity Museum in San Francisco, volunteering with children's library programming doing summer reading and fairs, substitute teaching at an outdoor preschool, and before that, helping out in a daycare. I love getting to know kids as individuals and figuring out what makes each person tick. I've worked with neurodivergent kids regularly and genuinely enjoy finding the best way to connect. I've also done a lot of date night sitting, so I'm totally comfortable stepping in with kids I don't know as well yet and making sure they have a great night while you get out and actually have fun. From school pickups, to swim lessons or Bob Ross painting parties, I've done it all, and I'm excited to find exactly what makes each kid light up and have the most fun. I studied Art History at Academy of Art, and I bring that into how I work with kids: thinking about creativity, play, and discovery as the best approach! I love talking about music, being outside, making things, or just improvising something fun on the spot. I really enjoy working hands on with all children and would love to be your sitter! I look forward to hearing from you, and wish you the best of luck in finding someone who is the right fit for your home.
