Gentle and kind childcare professional with 10+ years of experience! CPR/First Aid Certified, in Oregon CBR system, have relevant training, and references upon request.
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, my name is Jeanny, I am a single mother of 2 children, 17 and 11 year olds. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care and household services. I can be a handy woman, run errands, cook and clean.
My name Anastasia. I am 24 years old I am currently a part time cashier at Winco in Gresham Oregon. This winter I am planning to go to message therapy school. I have experience in watching kids I was camp counselor for my friends summer camp. I worked as a dietary aid for a memory care facility. I have pre service certifications in Alzheimer’s and dementia. I have seven years of experience in farming and gardening services.
Hello! Like many others, I’m pretty bad at delivering a Stellar summary of my background that feels “punchy” enough. Personality I’m a very enigmatic, expressive and passionate personality. I enjoy being silly and fun, but possess “the mom stare” and “mom eyebrows”, and can command a room appropriately when necessary. Approach I had a hard childhood, with an AMAZING mother who did a great job giving me lots of co-regulation, indulged my every question with a “let’s find out!!” and a perfectly kid-centered field-trip to explore answers, sometimes in our own kitchen with a science experiment. I really love creative, genuine PLAY experiences that are kid-guided, they’re so fun. I have built upon a lot of experience :) I am passionate about yearly swimming lessons for kids, having benefitted immensely myself, and really love taking kids to practice their skills! Outside of safety, I really care the most about kids feeling heard, like the support adult around them is fully invested and fully engaged. Credentials I started babysitting at 10years old, taking safe sitter, first aid & CPR classes every summer at the local hospital until I graduated high school. If I could freely acquire degrees for free, I would be heavily credentialed in Occupational Therapy for kids and early childhood behavior. Professionally, I have worked for over 17 years in roles related to social services, nannying, job training support and placement for youth and adults with disabilities, as well as caretaking in assisted living and memory care. I am current on all of my CPR/AED classes. I am very confident in my abilities to assess and respond to emergencies including infant choking, first aid and CPR considerations. I am also familiar with basic medical equipment and disability or high-risk needs and procedures involving transfers, toileting, and various situations naturally occurring with potty training, elopement, TBI, night time anxiety and panic disorders, and more! I also possess a current QMHFA certificate for those with mental health considerations.

"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!"
