Natalie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a former 6-12th grade teacher going back to school for nursing. I am looking for occasional or part time work on the days that I don’t have classes. My formal experience with children includes teaching middle school and high school, as well as summer camp with preschool to middle school aged children, and as an educational assistant for a special needs program. Although it has been awhile since I officially offered childcare, I grew up taking care of four younger siblings as well as foster children. I did often babysit for families with multiple children of different ages throughout high school and am looking to start again. I am comfortable with children of all ages, and am happy to help with light household chores and pets if needed. As a former teacher, I have a lot of experience with lesson planning and engaging kids in science (and other subjects too) regardless of their age and I would be happy to implement this in any childcare position. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Hiya! I hold National Board Certification in Early Childhood, an active AZ Teaching License, and a handful of other education licenses! I have 23 years experience in education, teaching Pre-K through 5th grade, and executive experience in curriculum and leadership. Happy to babysit, tutor, provide educational experiences—whatever you need!

Caroline helped to babysit our 15 month toddler for two days. It’s like having your private ms Rachel at home. She’s energetic and very patient with our fussy toddler. She also understands baby’s needs and provides good suggestions to parents. Will hire her again!

Kimberly $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kimberly, and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter based in the Portland area. I really enjoy working with kids and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and have fun while you’re away. I have experience working in a childcare setting, and I’m currently in a Childhood Cadet program at school, where I’m learning more about child development and care. I’ve also babysat family members, so I’m comfortable handling different ages and routines. I can help with playtime, homework, meals, and bedtime, and I enjoy keeping kids engaged with activities like games, crafts, and outdoor play. I’m reliable, patient, and always prioritize safety. I’d love the opportunity to help support your family!
