Hello there, I’m Emily! I’m a 23 years old nanny old full time nanny looking to add some more families to my evening and weekend sitting list! I have 7 years of experience with a wide range of ages. I’ve worked in daycares, preschools, kindergarten classrooms and have been a nanny for 3 years now! I am CPR and first aide certified, have taken safe sleep trainings, took many college courses on early childhood development and education and many other trainings throughout my years of working with kiddos. I love to be very creative and active when it comes to working with kids and spend all the time I can outside.

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!
