Find a babysitter in Troutdale, OR

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!

I am a friendly, reliable, and attentive person who is skilled in childcare and enjoys making a positive impact on their development. I worked at LA Fitness as a Kids Club attendant for over a year. I supervised up to 25 kids (ages 3 months to 12 years) as the sole attendant. I am extremely experienced when it comes to childcare for all ages. I love to think of new and fun activities to occupy the kiddos! And to bring out the creativity in them. I babysit my siblings kids often so it is one of my passions. I also work as a household assistant to cook, clean, or run errands. I lived with all four of my grandparents so I have experience with senior care as well. And I love all pets as well!

Every family wants the same thing from a caregiver. They want someone they can trust with the people and animals they love most. I'm Elizabeth, and caring for others has shaped my whole life. I'm a single mom to four boys who are grown or in college. I spent 16 years as a K-8 teacher with Douglas County School District. I also worked with the Family Support Council of Douglas County as a community educator, program manager, and grant coordinator. That role was all about supporting local families. Earlier in my career, I worked with Summerlin, a senior living community. What I bring: Kids: I've spent my career in classrooms and my life raising boys. I know how to keep kids safe, engaged, and learning. Structure and routine come naturally to me. Emotional support: I hold a master's in gifted education from Arizona State University. I'm also certified in SENG social-emotional coaching. I'm trained to help kids name big feelings and work through them. Calm in conflict: My bachelor's degree includes conflict resolution. Four boys gave me plenty of practice. Sibling disputes don't rattle me. Seniors: My time with Summerlin gave me deep respect for older adults. I bring patience, dignity, and a good ear. Pets: I share my home with a chihuahua, cats, and a very energetic lab. I also foster kittens. Small dogs have big opinions, and labs have endless energy. I keep up with both. Household help: I run a busy home of five. Schedules, meals, and daily logistics are second nature. I'm calm, organized, and warm. I'm a certified life coach, so listening is part of how I work. I communicate clearly with parents and families. I bring humor to the hard days. Hiking is my favorite way to spend time outdoors. Your family deserves care that's steady, kind, and consistent. I'd love to provide it.

Hello! My name is Marianna and I would love to help take care of your little ones. I used to sit small children (ages 4-7) years ago and would love to do so again. I’m a medical assistant by profession, therefore I know first aid well and have a few years experience working in pediatrics. I will care for your children well and protect them. I also love animals and working with them; our family has a yorkie and a cocker spaniel. I am patient, kind, and fun. I would love to work with you!
