Find nannies in Happy Valley, OR

Hello! I'm Brittany and I have a background in childcare before becoming a licensed physical therapist assistant. My license and work experience have given me the skills needed to be comfortable with elder care, care for adults and children with physical and/or cognitive delays, and more! With 20 years of experience off and on I have cared for multiple kids at once, been a nanny, occasional babysitter, fill-in nanny, you name it! Most of my experience has been with children ages 6mo-5yrs, but all ages are great. If the weather is nice I like to get everyone outside, but games and crafts indoors make for a nice day too! In my free time I enjoy hiking, discovering new restaurants and coffee shops, listening to a podcast, reading a good book and hanging out with my cat, Alfie!

Hi! I’m an empty nester and I’m beginning to explore the gig economy after a 23-year career in real estate. I bring a strong sense of responsibility, professionalism, and communication skills from years of working closely with families and managing high-trust client relationships. While I’m new to paid childcare platforms like UrbanSitter, I have hands-on parenting experience raising my son, which gave me a solid foundation in day-to-day childcare, structure, and staying calm and attentive in all kinds of situations. I’m currently focused on occasional babysitting, home help, and overnight care, not regular recurring schedules. I’m comfortable with late-night or overnight stays when needed and can be flexible for one-time jobs, date nights, or travel support. I’m also very comfortable with pets and would be happy to bring my small, non-shedding doodle along for overnight stays if needed. He is well-behaved, quiet, and used to being around children and new homes. Families can expect someone who is reliable, respectful of household routines, easy to communicate with, and attentive to both children and home environments. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks such as tidying up, organization,meal prep and cleanup, and keeping things orderly during my time in your home. Looking forward to supporting families who need trustworthy, occasional care.

Hello! I am an aunt of three boys and two girls. I nannied my sister’s three children and helped her with each of them from infancy through their first ten years. I have had nanny, animal, and house sitting jobs sporadically throughout the past seven years, and I enjoy all of it. Many friends have babies now, and I babysit for them when needed. The children range from 3 months to two years old. I am patient, kind, and honest while also being straightforward. I love to help others and make life easier.

Hi families! My name is Petra. I am originally from Alaska, a full-time Early Childhood Education (ECE) student at PCC, and a future teacher! I hold an Associate Degree in Music and Sonic Arts from Portland Community College, and I am a passionate singer-songwriter and drummer. My ultimate goal is to combine my love and passion for music and working with children to create a creative, enriching, and joyful environment for kids. I have been babysitting on UrbanSitter for a year now and absolutely love the amazing families I’ve met so far! Before transitioning to education, I spent 15 years in the restaurant industry and earned my culinary degree. I shifted careers because I truly connect with children. We share a spontaneous, excited-for-life energy and a deep fascination for the little things in life. I love bringing my Alaskan sense of adventure, rhythmic play, and sonic arts into outdoor adventures and daily music-making. I look forward to connecting with your family!
