$12 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 10 families in Troutdale, OR

Hello! My name is Mary and I'm excited to start working with you. I have a BA in English Lit with a minor in French. After graduating college I spent a year in France teaching English to French high schoolers. Before doing that I was a reading tutor and baby sat for many wonderful families, including families with autistic and ADHD sons. I have also worked as a skills coach for developmentally disabled adults and feel comfortable working with kids of different ability levels. My motto as a caregiver is patients, compassion, and most importantly having fun will make everyone's experience great. I am also a professional baker and pastry cook, and love to cook for kids or with them! I've been living in Portland for about 5 years now and I love this beautiful city and all it has to offer. In my spare time I like to go biking with my boyfriend, go on hikes, sketch (mostly flowers and nature stuff), read, and write poetry. I also love superhero movies, cartoons, and photography. I would love to get a chance to get to know your family.

Hanna $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hanna. I’m a graduate college student with a degree in English, currently living in Northeast Portland. I come from a big, loving family with four rowdy brothers, so I’m no stranger to energetic households! My childcare experience began in high school, where I spent my junior and senior years nannying a toddler with fetal alcohol syndrome. It was some of the most challenging, yet rewarding, work I’ve ever done. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from infants to middle schoolers. At my local church, I’ve volunteered in nursery care, taught classes, and mentored middle school students over the years. I also worked closely with special needs students in high school—participating in P.E. classes, supporting talent shows, and building strong, inclusive friendships. Currently, I work as a substitute teacher and also as a barista at Starbucks, where I love greeting people with a smile and helping make their day a little brighter. As a mom myself, I know how important it is to create a safe, nurturing environment. I’m available for babysitting during the summertime and on weekends. I look forward to connecting with families in need of dependable, experienced care.

Booked by 4 families in Troutdale, OR

I have a flexible schedule, working from home on my own eCommerce website. I was a nanny for many years - the children I cared for are now grown, and I thought I would once again offer my services to parents in my area needing occasional reliable, competent childcare. I have many years of experience caring for children from infants through elementary school. I am a former toy-store employee who knows how to PLAY with toys! I have a fun, youthful spirit, a great sense of humor, and I enjoy being around kids. Hoping to hear from you!

Ally $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ally, a caring, dependable, and experienced caregiver with over five years of babysitting experience and a genuine love for working with kids. I’ve cared for children ranging from under 1 year old through 13 years old, so I’m comfortable with everything from bottles and nap schedules to homework help and creative play. I also worked as an outdoor educator at an urban farm, where I guided kids through hands-on learning experiences, nature activities, and group projects. That role helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to keep kids engaged in fun, safe, and enriching ways. In addition to childcare, I have two years of elder caregiving experience, which strengthened my attentiveness, compassion, and sense of responsibility. I’ve also been a trusted house and pet sitter for over five years, regularly caring for dogs and cats and maintaining homes with care and respect. I’m calm, organized, and nurturing, and I truly enjoy creating safe, positive environments where kids can feel supported, have fun, and be themselves. I would love to connect and see if I’m a good fit for your family!

"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!"
