Hello! I'm Bec and I am a graduate of Northwestern University. I grew up in Seattle and returned to the PNW to get my MFA in creative writing; I now teach college English classes. I spent my years at Northwestern teaching drama classes in the Chicagoland area and working with Seesaw Theatre, an arts advocacy group that creates one-on-one sensory immersive theatre for kids with autism and other developmental disabilities (I then worked with a similar group in NYC for three years). I nannied for a crew of elementary schoolers, and eventually a toddler sibling as well, for four years. Between teaching drama classes, babysitting, nannying, teaching swim lessons, and working at a childcare center in high school, I have worked with kiddos from three months old to eighteen years old! In my free time I write, read, and make theatre.
Greetings lovely family, My name is Amber-Avenira, most people call me Avi :) With over a decade as a live-in & live-out nanny, including many years with a private nanny agency, I have enjoyed learning about a variety of lifestyles and parenting approaches including Montessori, RIE, positive reinforcement and more. With my bag of toys, gentle smile and warm sense of humor I am comfortable and confident in connecting with kids of all ages. And happy to support your family with anything you need. I work part time as a music teacher at a local music school, which keeps my schedule fairly open to continue supporting families as I've enjoyed doing most of my life. My beliefs strongly center around the "It Takes a Village" mindset, and I feel this is more important nowadays than ever before. We aren't meant to raise our families alone, it can really make a difference connecting with another person every now and then. So it is a great honor to be included in your village, even for a day. And my pleasure to be of service to you and your little one(s). I've included a few reviews from families I have worked with in the past. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions at all. I look forward to speaking with you soon! -Avi Heather You are very calm and give my children great attention. You play creatively with them and engage them in activities they're really interested in. . . Of course we want our children to be safe, have fun and be nurtured for who they are. You've been a great fit for that! Emily You treat children with respect and take them seriously, but also have fun with them. You pay attention to them and see them as individuals. Heather + Adam What most stands out is the engagement you had with the various developmental stages and creative needs of our children. We never returned to fussy children...they were always so content. Elisa My kids love you! You’re enthusiastic, kind, fun and you’re reliable. I also appreciate your punctuality. You receive requests and notes in a wonderful way. Kaitlyn You are so engaged and always come ready to play and meet her wherever she is at- happy, sad- you hold space for all of it and I am grateful :)
Hi! I’m Bella, I’m 24 years old and currently completing school online to obtain my veterinary technician license, so I have a very flexible schedule this summer! I actually used this app quite a bit a few years back and loved the families and kids I met, so I found myself wanting to come back to it again :) I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 and have experience with kids of all ages. I’ve also coached soccer and helped with summer camps in the past, so I love keeping kids active, engaged, and having fun! I’m very hands-on and enjoy crafts, outside time, games, homework help, and following household routines closely. I’d describe myself as patient, dependable, fun, and responsible. I also have experience with pets from working in veterinary clinics, so I’m very comfortable around cats and dogs. I’m happy to help with driving to activities, light housekeeping, meal prep, tutoring/coaching, multiple children/pets, and occasional overnight care. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable with cameras in the home as well! :) I am excited to meet you and your family!!
“Bella was very professional and reliable. My boys loved their time with her and had a lot of fun. Highly recommend her to everybody, and will be relying on her again for my future sitting needs. ”
Hi! My name is Jordyn, I am currently a first year nursing student at the University of Portland. I am originally from Hawaii so I grew up loving the outdoors, and just being in nature. Some things I love to do are going to the beach, hiking, fishing, shelling, and ceramics. I am known to having a caring and patient personality, hence me majoring in nursing. I really just love helping other people and animals. I have been babysitting in Portland for around 6 months now, plus years of experience caring for family friends in Hawaii, ages infant-12 years old. I'm also experienced in dog sitting/walking so I don’t mind animals. I am CPR certified, and am excited to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for your children or pets. My rates do express the quality of care I give. I do not have a car however I am very responsible about time orientation and will not be late. (I do have a license and never got into an accident, just not a car in oregon)
“Jordyn was great! Responsible, cheerful, great with our 8month old. Will have her back any time.”
Hi I’m Andrea! I am 27 and currently live in the Portland area. I have been baby sitting for the past several years and really enjoy the time I get to spend with kids! I have worked with the tutoring agency Kumon when I was a student at PSU and tutored kids from ages 2-10. I am also very comfortable with animals and have grown up with pets since I was a little girl and love to spend time in the sun outside!
“Andrea was sweet and kind to my 4 kids. She played with them, and they had a fun day! We recommend her!”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
