Booked by 2 families in Happy Valley, OR

Hello! My name is Guwo and I am from Portland, Oregon. I was born and raised here and moved to Eugene for undergrad where I lived there for four years. I received my bachelor's degree in Sociology and decided to move back to Portland to study for my LSATs for law school. I love being with kids. I think they teach you a lot even when you do not realize it. I am a very patient person who is quick to make the best decisions for what I think is the right choice. I am very organizational and know these qualities are important with jobs like this. Since I was 16 years old I've worked and volunteered with kids. I worked at my local church with kids from the ages of infants to 11 years old. I have also babysat families of kids from between ages 4 to 12 years of age. During my time in school, my main focus was my education, but when I had time I worked at the local church in Eugene and participated in the children's ministry.

She was super nice and sweet with my kiddos. They instantly took a liking to them. It’s difficult to find people who are naturally good with kids and she had that magic touch. Definitely hiring her in the future.

Juliana $17 per hour for 1 child

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!

Tatiana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi family members! If you are looking for a nurturing and patient caretaker for your kid, your elderly parent, or even for your fur baby- I’m your gal! With 7+ years of experience in being a nanny for a wonderful family with three boys, it’s safe to say I’m a seasoned nanny. We played nerf wars, football, gave them pointers in basketball, played madden, cooked for them, went to sport games with them- we truly had a blast! I do miss being around kids, which is why I am looking to care for a special little soul(s) out there! Side gigs I do from time to time is dog walk/sit for friends and I LOVE spending time with elderly humans, their wisdom, quirks, and particularity in things— all warms my heart.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
