Find a last-minute babysitter in Portland, OR

Hi! My name is Nourhan, but I typically go by my middle name, which is Celine. I am a recent graduate from the Los Angeles Film School with a bachelors degree in Entertainment Business. I have 6+ years of experience working with children ages 3 months and up at childcare centers and with families. I’ve been nannying through UrbanSitter for several years on and off. I love getting to know new families and helping kids discover and grow and it helps me raise money to pay off my student loans! It’s such a privilege to be a part of every child’s unique journey. Reach out if you think we might be a good fit- I’d love to chat :)

I am a mother of 7 and a youthful grandmother of many. My children were in the regular education system for several years, and then were homeschooled while we traveled. At university I majored in economics, law and divinity. I have worked in higher levels of the civil service, in private business and in the healing arts. I have also provided executive protection for the families of well known people at festivals and concerts. In my current semi-retirement, I enjoy nature, hiking, cultural events, and social media. At UrbanSitter, I am mainly interested in short term assignments - movie nights, vacation help, children or adults recovering from illnesses or accidents, children needing brief tutoring or emotional support, and helping busy parents cope with the unexpected hurdles life sometimes throws when we're raising children. I am happy to help you and your family with whatever it is that you need at the moment, and I look forward to meeting all of you. Let's together find a creative solution for the current situation. .

Hi, my name is Kristen! I am a calm, warm, patient person with a positive demeanor and genuinely love to help people! My background is in art, design and architecture. I am currently pursuing design from a different approach and working part-time in caregiving and babysitting. I am great with kids and am educated and savvy about ADHD, Neurodiveristy and complex-trauma. I am particularly good with Neurodivergent, ADHD or creative kids. I am a curious person in general and love helping kids learn about their interests and in particular love to support or mentor around art, crafts, design, etc. I am also interested in working with seniors and enjoy chit chatting, helping with compassion and thoughtfulness and am able to be thorough and conscientious around routines and medication. I am also happy to assist with basic meals. Please let me know if you have any other needs and we can figure out what works! I love cats and dogs! I have not had the chance to be a pet owner yet, but would love to meet your pets and care for them as well!

My childcare journey began at 12, babysitting in my church nursery, but it was my younger brother’s birth when I was 13 that truly ignited my passion for caring for little ones. Helping raise him next to a hard working single mother showed me how much I love nurturing and guiding children through their early years. Since then, I’ve gained over ten years of experience as a nanny, overnight caregiver, home manager, and preschool teacher. I’ve also worked as a professionally trained doula, further deepening my understanding of child development and family support. I’m also an active person and grew up participating in team sports, including soccer and swim team, which taught me the value of energy, focus, and teamwork—qualities I bring to my caregiving. I love creating fun, engaging moments to help kids learn, grow, and explore their world. With confidence, patience, and a second nature for childcare, I’m here to provide your little ones with exceptional care and attention.

A nanny working for one family looking to share with another young family. The family lives in the Richmond neighborhood of SE and consists of two boys ages 4 (soon to be five) and 7. They are watched by the nanny during the workweek, roughly 4 hours, five days a week. The four year old will be starting kindergarten this coming Friday and the 7 year old started second grade this week! Some of the things the boys love are, going for walks to the park, legos, reading books, science projects, baking, making art and building. Mom works from home so can help out in an emergency. Family can host part or all the time. Hi! My name is Kristin and I have worked in education for almost 20 years.
