Hello there, my name is Erin, and I am offering child-care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I am an experienced caregiver and former stay-at-home mom who raised two daughters from infancy through adulthood (both are now in college). My years of hands-on parenting shaped my patience, emotional awareness, and understanding of children’s needs throughout all of the developmental stages. I also have extensive experience in household management duties, and am a good cook. I am happy to do the weekly shopping, errands, and light cleaning around the schedule of those I am caring for. Additionally, I also have extensive experience in elderly care; I am a trained death doula and volunteer my time in hospice care - work that has deepened my presence, compassion, and ability to hold space with steadiness and care. I approach caregiving with maturity, respect, and a genuine commitment to creating a safe, nurturing environment for children and families. This volunteer work has become very meaningful to me after years of working with senior volunteers through a previous job managing a non-profit. As for pets, I am the lucky owner of a little dog named Moxie, and have cared for many animals over my 44 years. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience with chickens, ducks, pigs, birds, rabbits, and goats. Currently, and for the past seventeen years, I have spent much of my free time working as a paper artist, and I value creativity, curiosity, and thoughtful engagement. I love to incorporate creative activities and play into the time I get to spend with the children in my care. I look forward to learning about your family and needs to see if we are all a good fit for one another :)

Starting at the age of 12, I have taken care of all my cousins when they were infants. I have since worked as a caretaker professionally and in my off-time. I have also held a previous position as a camp counselor for a grade school summer camp when I was 15 yrs old. I have exuberant energy and a passion for care. I am comfortable with both comforting and gently disciplining those I care for as needed, as well for kids that are on the spectrum and take pride in making the days of those I work with a little bit better each time. I am comfortable working with a range of ages from youth to seniors, and love pets as well.

Hi there! I'm Julia. I have a wide variety of experience working with kids of all ages, ranging from infants to adolescents. I spent three years as a skills trainer in psychiatric residential and secure inpatient services supporting kids with severe behavioral and emotional symptoms. My roles included teaching coping skills, co-regulation techniques, medication administration, facilitating therapeutic groups and activities, and more. I've worked in early childhood education, emphasizing play-based learning, with kids aged 2-5. I've also supported families with babysitting young children and infants. A little about me- Born and raised in the SF Bay Area, I moved to Oregon for undergrad and have called it home ever since. I value time spent in the outdoors and exploring the many treasurable woodsy spaces surrounding the Portland area. I love to cook nutritious meals and nourish myself with lots of tea. I have a passion for working with the fluid and curious minds of kids and intend to continue my career with this population. I'm currently in a graduate program working towards my Master's in Social work at PSU. I'm in school full time starting the end of September with Thursdays-Sundays available. I have open availability for the month of September.
