Hello, my name is Caroline. I’m offering child care, senior care and household services. I love taking care of children and seniors. I have been taking care of children since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities included bringing them home from/to school, crafts, tutoring, and all personal care of child. I have taken care of my grandma and my grandpa, so I feel comfortable with senior care. I can do any chores and enjoy cooking, as well.
I am a Portland State graduate with a Master’s degree in Social Work. I have 10+ years of experience being a professional nanny, during which I have worked for a diverse mix of families with kids ranging from ages infant-12 years old. I am a thoughtful and patient person who is passionate about taking care of kids. In my free time I enjoy sports and outdoor activities as well as art, reading and other indoor activities. Babysitting is something I really enjoy because kids find so much joy in the littlest of treasures and it's rewarding helping and seeing how much kids grow when you provide care for them. I look forward to hearing from you!
Hello, my name is Jade and I work as a consulting environmental scientist in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Seattle and have worked as a babysitter in Seattle and The Bay Area. I have been caring for children on and off since I was a teenager, worked as a nanny and lifeguard through college, then later as an environmental educator and volunteer coordinator, and have maintained CPR/First Aid certification. I've worked as a "date night" sitter, as a nanny where my daily responsibilities included walking older children to school and caring for toddlers or infants during the work day, with parents either also working in the home or running errands, and as a to and from school driver. Most recently I nannied regularly for a family in Olympia, WA with a 10 month old and a 4 year old several days a week. On occasion I will work with a nonprofit when they need childcare service for an event. I've worked with children aged 2 mos through 14 years of age, with the eldest being uniquely abled (Downs) and requiring additional support with homework and developing life skills. I enjoy exploring nature with children, taking kids on walks and day-trips, dancing, making art, building forts, playing games, helping kids practice responsibility and awareness of self and others, and supporting kids to think both creatively and critically. I honestly appreciate how kids can be both serious and imaginative, opinionated yet adaptable, and enjoy spending time with them and having fun! I am capable of assisting with any homework or research necessary for school, with my greatest strengths in Language Art, the study of Languages (Spanish, French), Arts, Sciences, and then Maths up to Advanced Algebra and Statistics. I have extracurricular experience in swimming, soccer, ultimate frisbee, dance, journalism, photography, graphic design, choir, and horseback riding, as well as gardening and permaculture. If you think we might be a good fit, please don't hesitate to reach out and ask any questions you may have.
“Jade was instantly a hit with our 15 month old. She is engaging and playful and able to follow through with his bedtime routine. We wouldn't hesitate to hire her again.”
Hello! I'm Bec and I am a graduate of Northwestern University. I grew up in Seattle and returned to the PNW to get my MFA in creative writing; I now teach college English classes. I spent my years at Northwestern teaching drama classes in the Chicagoland area and working with Seesaw Theatre, an arts advocacy group that creates one-on-one sensory immersive theatre for kids with autism and other developmental disabilities (I then worked with a similar group in NYC for three years). I nannied for a crew of elementary schoolers, and eventually a toddler sibling as well, for four years. I’ve also worked as a DSP. Between teaching drama classes, babysitting, nannying, teaching swim lessons, and working at a childcare center in high school, I have worked with kiddos from three months old to eighteen years old! In my free time I write, read, and make theatre.
About me: My name is Daniella, I'm 40yrs old and I've been babysitting since the age of 13. Although I have a full-time career as an accountant, I still babysit part-time. I think kids are amazing. I love babysitting because it's completely different from what I do on a daily basis. Kids always teach me something new about life or remind me of the great things that I forgot about. I enjoy playing games and reading to kids. I think kids really enjoy it when I read to them because I do all of the voices! In my free time I enjoy painting, and traveling, and I am studying French. Availability: Friday - Sunday evenings. Please see my calendar for up-to-date availability. POLICY: *4 HOUR MINIMUM FRIDAYS - SUNDAYS* *CANCELLATION NOTICE: 48 HOURS. FEE OF 50% TIME BOOKED IF LESS THAN 48 HOURS NOTICE GIVEN*
