Emma $13 per hour for 1 child

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!

"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!"
