Hello, I’m Ivory! I am an independent college student, I just graduated 2025 at PSU with a bachelor of fine arts! I have taken 4 years of Spanish and would be happy to share basic Spanish vocabulary! I love drawing, painting, ceramics, and am working 7 years so far as a part time ice cream cake decorator. In my free time I enjoy singing, working out, and playing games with friends! I have experience babysitting my 3 nephews, and working with kids at church. I babysat for a girl 5 y/o girl until she was 7 y/o in the mornings getting ready for school with the occasional pickup from school. . I occasionally babysit a nonverbal 4y/o boy with autism since he was 1 year old. I’ve currently been babysitting a 3 year old girl on Saturdays for the last year! I have pet sitting experience too for dogs, cats, fish, and farm animals (I adore my cat Toulouse), I’ve been pet sitting my sisters golden doodle puppy occasionally. I love teaching kids new things and sharing what I’ve learned with them. I’m looking to save more money while doing something that I enjoy! (A bonus is I love cleaning/organizing too and would be happy to help with that!)
“I hired Ivory for ongoing and occasional babysitting for my daughter who is 6. She has been very helpful and kind. She was willing and ready to help with little things that make life so much easier for me as a single parent and make transitions smoother for my daughter.”
Hello! My name is Ericka! I am looking for weekend gigs cuz this economy? Whew chile! Mon- Fri, I work at a child care center. My cohort are just starting to turn two! I’ve been with this cohort for about 18 months. My youngest started at 7 weeks!!! I started child care back when I was 16 and worked for about 10 years before switching careers. I worked as a bus driver for quite awhile! A couple years back, I left Trimet to come back to my true love (despite the wage). I’m REALLY familiar with 3 and under, but love older kiddos too! I’ve worked with 10 yrs and under in a professional child care setting and done some babysitting for 11 and 12s. Pet wise, I’m not terribly familiar or comfortable with snakes, but as long as I don’t have to hold or feed one, them just existing isn’t a problem. I have a small dog named Georgie. I love going for walks, swimming, parks, child friendly spaces, movies, music, books, etc. As a current child care worker, I have my cpr and first aid cert., food handlers card. Any other questions, don’t be shy!
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.
