Kimberly $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kimberly, and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter based in the Portland area. I really enjoy working with kids and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and have fun while you’re away. I have experience working in a childcare setting, and I’m currently in a Childhood Cadet program at school, where I’m learning more about child development and care. I’ve also babysat family members, so I’m comfortable handling different ages and routines. I can help with playtime, homework, meals, and bedtime, and I enjoy keeping kids engaged with activities like games, crafts, and outdoor play. I’m reliable, patient, and always prioritize safety. I’d love the opportunity to help support your family!

Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Sophia! I am currently a student at MHCC studying for nursing! I am offering child, senior, and pet care as well as some house keeping. I have been working in assisted memory senior care as an in-home care giver and also in a facility for about 5 years now. There, I prepared food, I did transferring, changes, cleaning, showering, medical applications, monitoring, feeding and behavioral and mental health as well. I don’t have much experience with children other than babysitting my nieces and nephew(toddlers and older)a little bit when I was younger but I really want to have more experience and learn more since I am currently taking a course on child development for my studies. I love children and I hope to learn more on how to care for them and how to do it well in the physical and mental aspects. I will try my best to provide a good and healthy environment for the children so they can learn and be their best selves. I have only learned to cook and clean at home and I find myself to be organized and a good thorough cleaner. So I don’t mind to offer some of my services in that! I grew up with dogs and caring for them and I love them so much as well as cats! I currently have two lovely cats and have lots of experience with cats as well. I am happy to offer dog or cat sitting services as well.

Guinevere $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m an older college student looking to work with some fun kids! I’ve been babysitting and nannying since I was ten years old. The first time I was first aid and infant CPR certified was at fourteen years old. My favorite family was a family friend that I babysat for regularly. It started with two kids elementary age and ended with four kids ranging from infant to middle school age. I love outside activities with kids to get energy out and doing projects or “homework” that is fun for the kids and also helps them learn. I am open to a lot of situations.
