Hello!! I have plenty of experience babysitting and it is something I really love to do and have a passion for. I have taken both CPR and first aid courses in school and have also worked one on one with children in a preschool classroom and also multiple elementary classes. Along with classroom experience, I have had the opportunity to work in a hospital setting. I am a student at the University of Portland graduating in the Spring with my bachelors in Integrative Health and Wellness and a minor in Education. I am currently completing an internship at the non-profit Mother and Child Education Center and shortly after graduating will be pursuing a certificate to be a birth and postpartum doula! I am looking for a part time/full time position starting sometime in the next few months or even into the fall, going through January or possibly longer! I am super flexible so feel free to ask any questions :) I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a semi-retired licensed Registered Nurse with five grown children and four grandchildren. I have worked as a nanny full time, part time, and night nurse. I have done occasional work for families for nights out, special events, and sick children who cannot attend regular childcare. I have also covered babysitting services for a conference in the past. My experience includes all ages, multiple children, diabetics, and neurodivergent children. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teenager. I love children and animals and I spend my childcare time reading, playing, dancing, exercising, walking, and doing crafts. Our days are very busy and interactive. I try to make basic daily tasks fun to keep the children engaged and willing to do things like hand washing and clean up. I am patient, kind, and loving. I have my own vehicle and a clean driving record if transportation should be necessary. Pets are not a problem. I will happily feed, water, walk, brush, play with and/or check-in on your animals. I am fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID (and a bunch of other stuff). I am clean and keep hand sanitizer with me. I am also certified in Basic, Advanced, and Pediatric Advanced Life Support. I am open to light housekeeping duties, and I don't mind meal prep or cooking. Most people enjoy my cooking and I am health conscious and creative, but certainly respect that some children may have limited food preferences and/or allergies and I am willing to work within those limitations. I strive to provide a positive experience that is fun, safe, and comfortable, and allows you to feel secure in your choice, knowing your precious child or children are in good hands.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is D’Asia I’m a 20-year-old full-time college student at Portland State University offering childcare services for families. While, I don’t have any formal training or certificates. I bring a wealth of experience as the oldest of four siblings having taken on a motherly role when needed. I’ve cared for children ages one through six and truly enjoy fostering their curiosity, creativity, and growth. I love being outdoors and engaging in activities like painting, reading, and taking walks, which I found calm little ones. I can assist with homework, help keep them active and ensure they stay engaged with fun, meaningful activities . Although I’m allergic to cats, I’m comfortable with dogs. I look forward to helping your family by providing reliable, compassionate and engaging care for your children.

"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!"
