Find nannies in Happy Valley, OR

I’ve been working with kiddos for a long time, with a specialty for those with behavioral health issues, developmental delays, in/from foster care, adopted, etc. I currently work as a DSP for two agencies in Portland, for kids and adults with special needs. I’ve worked as a live-in nanny, and I am generally the friend asked to babysit/housesit/petsit bc I’m naturally nurturing and patient, and I genuinely get a kick out of learning everyone’s quirks, obsessions, needs, communication styles, etc. I am not a stranger at all to high stress moments, guiding re-regulation, and conflict resolution. First aid and CPR certified

I have hands-on experience working with children through ESS K–12 as a substitute/teachers assistant, mainly with pre-K to elementary students, including children with special needs. I’m used to stepping into different environments, following routines, and supporting kids with different learning and emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and calm, I genuinely enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and encouraged. Depending on the school and needs of the children I help with daily routines, playtime, feeding, changing, organization, keeping spaces tidy, class work, and I always aim to be a positive, steady presence.

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.
