Olivia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a therapist who works with tween/teen girls and I recently moved to Portland. I love spending time with girls ages 6–18 and am available for after-school or before school rides, homework structure support, and evening help. My speciality is mentoring and supporting girls in their emotional development, friendship world, regulation, and self confidence! Before becoming a therapist, I nannied for many families and have a lot of experience working with children and teenagers, supporting families and am still in touch with many of them! I’m not looking for full-time nannying but would love to support local families here and there or find a weekly position with a smaller amount of hours. Looking forward to hearing from you! :)

Hello! I’m Nina! I live in Portland Oregon and have been working in childcare/ early childhood education for over 10 years! I have nannied for multiples, infants and was a lead teacher at a top rated preschool in Oregon. I work remotely as a Director of that preschool now and babysit as well! I am a great multi taker and love finding ways to peak little ones curiosity by providing a safe and nurturing environment full of opportunities for enrichment and exploration!

I am first aid certified and have over 100 hours of certified continued early childhood education training! Working with families is my favorite - I am happy to help run errands, do light cleaning and meal prep! Let me know if you (or your little one) have any questions 😊
