Find nannies in Clackamas, OR

I am an herbalist, nanny, and artist! I have been caring for and nannying for children for about 8 years. I come from a big family and have always been super nurturing and compassionate. I love hiking, yoga, running, cooking, and making art! I love spending time outside and love to go on walks with the kiddos.

I love all forms of art, I have spent a lot of time drawing, painting, wire wrapping, playing guitar, reading and aerial silks. I grew up in Northern California, and just recently moved to Portland. I love spending time with children, and I very strongly believe in positive reinforcement, helping children to find their passions and artistic expression, as well as attachment based child care, I believe that infants and young children need someone who is emotionally available and attentive to their individual needs.

My name is Lisa and I’m a 35 year old currently living in SE Portland. Many of my close friends and family have small children that I have been fortunate to spend a lot of time around. Along with caring for my 3yr old niece often, I am comfortable and confident with children of a wide age range-I would love to assist your family in any way needed. I’m happy to assist with homework, dinner and any light housework that needs to be done. And I’m a former pet sitter (have my own dog and cat now) so I am happy to help out walking and feeding pets as needed. Please let me know if you would like any other specific information from me!

With 5+ years of dedicated experience caring for children from newborns to pre-teens, I bring joyful engagement and reliable support to your family-not just supervision. My background includes full time/part-time nannying for infants, after-school care for school-aged kids, and overnight care for toddlers and children. Through these roles, I’ve mastered everything from daily routines and developmental play to handling big emotions with calm creativity. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified (renewed November 2023) and trained in Safe Sleep Practices, Early Childhood Nutrition, and more because your child’s safety is my top priority. My approach blends structure with warmth: I believe in clear boundaries, empathetic communication, and nurturing independence through play. You’ll find me designing sensory activities for infants, helping with homework through patient encouragement, or guiding sibling dynamics with fairness. For me, emotional safety matters just as much as physical care-which is why parents describe me as dependable, intuitive, and genuinely enthusiastic. I notice when a child needs comfort, a creative outlet, or quiet space to recharge. Beyond the basics, I love nurturing growth through: 🎨 Creative Enrichment: Tailored arts & crafts, music time, storytelling, and simple STEM experiments. 🌳 Active Play: Park adventures, dance parties, and sports to keep kids engaged and energized. 📚 Learning Support: Homework help, literacy games, and curiosity-driven Q&A sessions. 🏡 Household Partnership: Allergy-aware meal prep, light tidying, and seamless routine management. What truly fuels me? Building trusting relationships-with your children and you. I’ll share thoughtful updates about your child’s day, and I’m always proactive about their evolving needs. Let’s connect so I can help your family thrive!

Hi there! My name is Meagan, I am 33 years old and I just moved out to the Portland area from NYC. I am available for babysitting, senior care, pet care, and household services. I absolutely love kids and dogs. I have been babysitting children from infant to middle school since high school. I was a camp counselor for a few years and most recently I was the full time nanny for two toddler boys aged 3 and 1. I grew up with dogs in my family and have cared for friends and family dogs since a young age. I also have a great respect for the elderly and enjoy helping them. I volunteered at an adult day care for a summer but have no other professional experience.
