Lila 2 reviews
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am Lila! I offer babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and pet care. I had my first babysitting gig in 6th grade, which is how I found out I love all the components working with kids has to offer! I have worked with infants to pre-teens, and am equipped for the responsibilities each age asks of me. Many of the families I have worked with have had multiple kids (and pets). I am comfortable and experienced with watching multiple infants at once; and with watching infants and older children, that require different kinds of attention. I grew up with three dogs and a cat, so taking care of animals in addition is welcomed. I love organizing all the details of the day into to-do lists to ensure every task is completed. The kids' happiness and well-being are the main priorities. Taking the kids outside (after lots of sunscreen is applied!), finding creative/enriching ways to spend our time together, and figuring out the individual needs of each child in my care is my approach to having fun and fostering development (of course, if other activities are outlined for me, I will make sure to do those). I grew up with a love for cooking, so making snacks and meals is both fun and easy. I am a senior in college, working towards two bachelor's degrees. I have highly developed writing, reading and comprehension, and social studies skills -- which positions me to help tutor kids, assist with homework, and work on personal reading/writing goals. I graduated high school with honors, so I have proficient math and science abilities. I am not bilingual, but I took Spanish all of high school, and continue to study the language in college, so I am available to help with the learning of lower-level Spanish. Additionally, I have a driver's license and perfect record. If you have any questions, please reach out and ask, I'd love to answer them.

“I wholeheartedly recommend Lila to any family in need of a wonderful nanny or babsitter! Lila was a part-time nanny for my two young daughters, and her dedication and caring nature quickly made her a part of our family. Lila's attentiveness and patience are unparalleled. She has a remarkable ability to understand and respond to the needs of young children, creating a safe and nurturing environment for them. My daughters always felt heard and cared for, and her patience helped them through challenging moments with ease. One of the most memorable contributions Lila made was teaching my 3-year-old daughter how to ride a bike.. facilitated by Lila's gentle encouragement and persistent support. :-) Lila has excellent organizational skills and is reliable. She managed daily routines seamlessly, from meal times to nap schedules, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Her proactive attitude and willingness to go above and beyond were truly appreciated, as she often took the initiative to plan fun and educational activities.”

Grace 1 review
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Grace, and I'm a first-year college student who loves helping kids learn and grow while having fun! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays after 2:30pm and Tuesdays and Thursdays after 1:30pm, but I’m flexible depending on what a family needs. From babysitting to housework, I am here to offer positive and reliable support wherever I go! While I am somewhat new to professional child care, I have extensive babysitting experience with younger family members and children of family friends, and have taken care of + instructed K-12 students. I love playing with kids, finding crafts to do, and making mini besties with every child in my care! I can also help with any after-school work or house chores that may be needed! I have worked as a teacher's aide in elementary classes, served as a camp counselor for Oregon’s outdoor school program for 2 years, and volunteered with the survival swim program in Salem. I am CPR and First Aid Certified, as well as DSP certified, and have experience providing academic and behavior support to kids with a wide range of mental disabilities. If families are looking for someone to care for kids with special needs, I am prepared! I am comfortable with all kinds of personalities and ready to create a supportive and positive environment for your little ones as they learn and explore, while also taking some tasks off your to-do list!

“My younger son is ADHD and autistic. I needed someone to engage with him, take him to the park, and give him the one-on-one time he thrives on. Grace was great! He took to her right away and looked forward to when she’d be back. I love hearing my son happy and engaged or energized from spending time in the park, and she knew just how to connect with him. I couldn’t recommend her enough, especially those with higher-needs kiddos! Much thanks and appreciation to you, Grace!”
