Booked by 18 families in Lake Oswego, OR

Hi families, my name is Valentina and I'm 23 years old and I'm from the beautiful country Colombia. I'm studying Foreign Trade because I like to practice English, I'm trying to improve it and I would like to spend time with kids because I think that they're the best teachers! In my free time I love to spend time with my friends and family, also, I love to have time for me and myself just watching TV shows, movies or just resting. I have experience taking care kids because I passed a lot of time with my little sister, my cousins and little neighbors, I took care of them a lot of times and also I did a volunteer in a daycare, I spent a lot of time with babies, I love their innocence and the way that you can win their hearts.

“She played with my kids the whole time and didn’t need any help. We were able to catch up on chores and have enough quiet to work on planning and even go out to lunch together. I highly recommend her and will try to hire her again.”

Booked by 2 families in Lake Oswego, OR

I have experience in several child care areas, including a licensed day care, Sunday school, babysitting, summer camps, tutoring and nannying. I've worked with all different age groups, from infants to teenagers. I am now 25 and have 12 years of various experience! I keep doing what I do because of the love and joy nannying brings to my own life, and the wonderful opportunity it provides me to give it back to the children and families I care for.

“Daisy is wonderful. On time, easy going and the kids love her.”

Booked by 1 family in Lake Oswego, OR

Hello, there! I’m Mia! My experience with children started young, being the oldest of a large family! I also have worked as a nanny for a variety of families in the past and always enjoyed my time! I take a more “screen-free” approach to my time with your children (arts and crafts, anyone?). I am a creative person myself so I enjoy drawing and painting, building blocks and reading! Also open to whatever works with your unique family’s needs. I have experience pet sitting and dog walking and am comfortable with dogs, cats, lizards and other kinds of small animals!

“Mia is kind and gentle and really wonderful with our 7 month old, keeping her engaged with books and toys. Mia also helps out around the house during nap time which we really appreciate. We look forward to working with you more!”
