Find nannies in Damascus, OR

My name is Ghena I am working on my associates degree in PCC. I am offering childcare, senior care. I’m a preschool teacher. I love children and I’m very passionate about children and teaching them and being there for them. I worked as a babysitter For 2 years. I created a safe and nurturing childcare environment. I communicated with parents to understand each child's specific needs and desires. I have experience with seniors I lived with my grandparents and took care of them. I can drive seniors to appointments.

Hello! I’m a fan of boundaries, co-regulation, parks, libraries, field-trips, and kitchen science experiments. I am passionate about swimming lessons, and our local community centers and parks. I started babysitting at a young age, taking safe sitter, first aid & CPR classes every summer at the local hospital until I graduated high school. Even though I attended university 3hrs away, I still drove back to accommodate past clients for weekends, holidays, or be the travel Nanny on vacations. Now? I get to be confident that I know kids. I like ‘em, and they like me too. I enjoy connecting with them, and watching them grow. Professionally, I have worked for over 17 years in roles related to social services, nannying, job training support and placement for youth and adults with disabilities, as well as caretaking in assisted living and memory care. Now? I’m working my hardest to make ends meet while I figure out next steps, and see if that might be Nannying. If I find the right family or families. I am current on all of my CPR/AED classes and confident in my abilities to assess and respond to emergencies. I pay close attention to safety and react swiftly when appropriate. I am familiar with most basic medical equipment or high-risk needs, disability assistance tech such as sound boards, and adapt quickly. I am personally limited when it comes to my willingness to perform full transfers and toileting unless a lift or transfer board are available (let’s talk about it if it’s variable). I am open to elopement, TBI, night time anxiety, panic disorders and other “high risk” needs, let’s talk! I also possess a current QMHFA certificate for those with mental health considerations. Additionally, I have house cleaning and home management experience and really thrive in this type of role. It is actually a small personal dream of mine to be someone’s home manager/assistant/go-to-baddie again? I used to do that for a *few years in Fayetteville, AR and as an adult, I’d honestly be great at it!

Having a degree in Psychology with a minor in child development and music, makes me qualified to attend to your most precious children, but the fact that I love kids makes it even better. I was an assistant director of a preschool for 3 years, an assistant director of an after school and summer program for almost 15 years. Not to mention a character performer at both Disneyland and WDW. I also was a manager at the Disney store too, so entertaining kids is no problem, it’s what I do. Having raised 3 of my own kids, now gives me the time to help care for yours. You have furry kids too, no problem, I love them too(we have 3 dogs and 5 cats). Send me a message today if you need help before school, after school, holiday breaks or if you just need a break yourself. I look forward to meeting you and your darling kids and/or pets!

I love kids! I worked for 20 years as an occupational therapist, about 10 years working with kids birth through age 5 who had developmental delays and/or sensory issues, fine and gross motor delays. We worked as a team and OT/PT/speech, and early childhood teachers/specialists coached each other in the basics. For about eight years, I also worked with kids ages 6 to 16 years of age. I trained in child/human development & did child care for about 10 years (a few months to 13 years). I enjoy creating a safe, fun, nurturing environment and engaging children through language, reading, walks, age-appropriate play, physical & tabletop play, art, helping with cooking/baking. I am very responsible and dependable, flexible, easy-going, loving, attentive and fun! For the last year, I’ve been working as a caregiver for two adults and loving it; I’d love transitioning to caring for children. Generally, I am available during the day, M-F and evenings & Saturdays by appointment. Pet care is negotiable/reasonable. References are available upon request. I hope to hear from you soon! Kirsten
