Hello! My name is Bri and I have a background in clinical mental health counseling. My experience with children includes babysitting, nannying, after school enrichment, and play therapy. I am warm, dependable, and have excellent communication skills. I am located in Portland, OR. and I am currently seeking occasional work. I have reliable transportation.
Hi my name is Perla and I am a single mom that is going back to school to obtain a speech and language pathology certification. My bachelors degree is in child and adolescent development. I am pet friendly and have pets of my own and am excited to work with families while my kiddos are at school. My kiddos are 6 and 8 so I have plenty of first hand experience as well. I am also a native Spanish speaker. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
I am a career nanny and have been working with children in their homes for over 18 years. I love caring for infants but also love taking toddlers out to explore the world. Watching children learn and grow never gets old!
Hello :) My name is Morgan, and I’m here to offer a variety of services for you and your family. I have more than ten years of experience caring for seniors, infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I adore animals and have been working with cats, dogs, chickens, and horses my entire life. My empathy, perception, and eye for detail allows me to connect and build relationships based on trust and genuine understanding. I love to cook, and pride myself on my timeliness and organizational skills. I’ve helped care for my own grandmother with dementia, as well as many other seniors with a variety of needs and medical requirements. I have experience assisting children with special needs, provided tutoring, and engaged in medication management. I have also worked with children in a clinical setting as a behavioral health paraprofessional. I have my own vehicle, and am happy to run errands if needs be. I’d love the opportunity to discuss your family’s individual needs and help in any way I can!
Hi! I’m Kira, a dependable and caring sitter with professional experience working with children of a variety of ages and needs. I’m currently a graduate student in Applied Behavior Analysis and work in pediatric ABA, where I support children with communication, social skills, play, routines, and daily activities. I’m especially comfortable with little ones and really enjoy working with children ages 3–6. I love creating fun and whimsical activities, whether that’s arts and crafts, playing games, reading, imaginative play, or simply joining in on whatever your child is excited about. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves. I’m happy to help with playtime, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, simple meals, bedtime routines, and cleanup. I’m also comfortable following individual routines and instructions from parents, and I’m CPR certified. My goal is always for children to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely have a good time while they’re with me. I’m responsible, communicative, and will treat your home and your family with the same respect I’d want for my own.
