Daragh Corvallis
$17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Daragh, and I am a junior at Oregon State University studying mechanical engineering. I am currently available for childcare and household support services. I am originally from Portland, Oregon, and have been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I have experience caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children. In addition to childcare, I have worked as a math tutor for students ranging from kindergarten through high school, which has strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to support children academically. I am truly passionate about working with children, having grown up with many younger siblings and cousins. I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel supported and cared for. Beyond childcare, I am happy to help with cooking, cleaning, errands, and general household organization. I am comfortable around pets, love animals, and have no allergies. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

Ella Corvallis
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ella and I am going into my junior year at Oregon State. I love children and am looking for part time babysitting starting in November. The past year I mainly babysit for a family with a 4 year old boy and girl who just turned 1. I babysit once or twice a week, often 5-10 hour shifts. Other than that I occasionally babysit a family with a 4 year old and 2 year old as well as a family with 22 month old twins and a 5 year old. My tasks normally involve dropping off and picking up from school, crafts, games inside and outside, changing diapers, giving baths and more. I also have experience dog sitting!
