Find a last-minute babysitter in Portland, OR

Hello! My name is Marianna and I would love to help take care of your little ones. I used to sit small children (ages 4-7) years ago and would love to do so again. I’m a medical assistant by profession, therefore I know first aid well and have a few years experience working in pediatrics. I will care for your children well and protect them. I also love animals and working with them; our family has a yorkie and a cocker spaniel. I am patient, kind, and fun. I would love to work with you!

I grew up caring for a lot of my younger cousins, so I know how to handle chaos. I find kiddos to be very intresting little people, and love the times I get to spend with them. I would love to help be a support in kids' lives that I knew I needed when I was younger. I live with three dogs and two cats, and in the past I've cared for guinea pigs, gerbils, fish, and lizards. No animal is too much for me to handle. I love them and I love being around them!

I have a Bachelor's education in Human Development Psychology. Previous Montessori & early childhood experience. I spent the last decade doing social work with all ages in the community. I have skills to offer caregiving and practical life improvement assistance to folks of any age.

I’m the oldest in my family so since i was a kid i always have helped with my families children ranging from all ages. I currently work in a retirement home where i’m trained in CPR, ambulance calls and assistance, and many other things like dealing with hard times (Alzheimer’s, dementia, rudeness, etc.). I have a background in russian speaking. I also grew up with many dogs, cats, reptiles, and amphibians. I’m always learning but i love helping out and i hope this description spoke to you.

Hello! I have been working with children for over 15 years! My first job in high school was as a nanny and tutor, and I then went on to be an instructor and program director on Catalina Island. Here instructed kids from 3rd grade - 12th grade in Biology and History in accordance with the California State Curriculum. Afterwards I got my degree in Teaching and History from Azusa Pacific University where I logged over 200 hours of in-class experience. After college I worked as a nanny and tutor in California, Madrid, London, and Australia for children aged 0 - 21 (with special needs). I have experience working with families of all different backgrounds and languages, as well as tutoring kids with learning disabilities and special needs (specifically Autism and Dyslexia). I am very active and like to take kids on walks, to the zoo, to the park, and play lots of games. I am currently in the process of applying to Graduate School for teaching so that I can further my work with children. If you have any questions, please reach out to me! I can't wait to get to know your family!
