I’m the eldest of six, the mother of four, and the grandmother of seven! I’ve always had dogs, cats, and small animals. I have a Bachelor of Science degree and substitute teacher experience. I am an excellent cook and housekeeper. I love people and animals and they generally love me, too!

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!

Hello there! :) My name is Daria, I am currently a senior at GFU nursing program. I am offering childcare and household services. I have experience working with children of various ages in summer camps and being a nanny since I was 17 years old. I enjoy playing with children, doing crafts, getting outside and tutoring! I can also help around the house, cook and drive to places, if needed! Looking forward to work with you!

I have been working in the field of Occupational Therapy for 33 years, 17 of them in the schools with children with special needs. I have raised three children of my own and have 5 delightful Grandchildren. I like to plan fun age and developmentally appropriate activities to assist in developing self-esteem, creativity, self-expression, curiosity, character and compassion. I enjoy seeing and assisting children thrive in a safe and nurturing environment. My Grandchildren know that "Nana's" most important job is keeping them safe. I encourage children to problem solve and to communicate openly. Communication is key in all my relationships no matter the age. I was a life guard as a young adult, a Girl Scout leader and volunteered for outdoor adventure companies that work with the physically challenged population. I even taught adaptive PE for a term. I co-owned an organic farm CSA for 10 joyous years. We also made herbal products and sold them at the Farmer's Market. I am an animal lover as well so be assured that your pets will also receive attention. Some call me the dog or the cat-whisperer... (Side note: I am a petsitter as well). I don't watch much TV as there are too many other choices as my interests are numerous from backpacking, kayaking, traveling especially in the developing world, volunteering, spending time with animals, my family and friends and of course my Grandchildren, reading, music, the performing arts, skiing, crocheting, yoga, crafts, gardening and trying to make this world a little more kind, more fun, lighter... Life is to be celebrated as it is a gift to share and enjoy with others and possibly to make their life a bit easier along the way.

i love the opportunity to make peoples day to day life a bit easier and get to know you and your family! open to pretty much all extra chores, cooking and driving pickup/drop off, errands!
