Find nannies in Portland, OR

Hi there! My name is Alexa, I am 21 years old, and I would love to get to know you and your kiddos! A little about who I am and my experience: I am a 2023 WSU graduate with my B.S. in Psychology, and before I go on to continue my education, I wanted to take the time to get to know myself and my passions a bit more. One of the areas of psychology that I always thought I might want to focus on is child development - and I thought that babysitting/nannying during my break between school would be a wonderful chance to experience the wonderful hearts and minds of kiddos and see if that is something I should further pursue. I am the eldest child of my parents’ four children, with one sister being 8 years younger than me and one brother being 13 years younger than me. Much of my childhood was spent changing diapers, helping with nap time, playing with them, watching them while my parents were busy or out for the night, and generally being a big part of their early years. I also had experience working with children through my church, as we frequently volunteered at a local family homeless shelter where we would play with the kids and try to brighten their days just a bit. Through my church I also spent a couple weeks in Kosovo in the summer of 2019 where I helped teach the local children English. It was a wonderful experience and one that I would love to return to one day. For transparency, I will be candid and say that it has been a second since I have been actively involved in the child caring world. Because of covid during my last two years of high school, and because I was getting my Bachelor’s degree so young, circumstances made it so that I haven’t been able to care for children like I used to in a while. My siblings have also made it clear that they are now too old and way too cool to hang out with their older sister! I will completely understand if my gap in my child caring resume makes you feel uneasy or uncomfortable. I wouldn’t ever expect a parent to trust their children with someone unless they were 100% comfortable with the person- and I am very okay if that isn’t me. If you do think we will be a good fit, I am happy to speak at your convenience! Childcare is a wonderful, fulfilling job and I am very excited to jump back into that world again. Thank you so much for taking the time to read about me and for considering me as a candidate to take care of your kiddos :)

Hi! My name is Jalina, and I’m currently finishing up my bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I’ve always loved spending time with children and find it incredibly rewarding to support their growth, creativity, and emotional development. My background in psychology helps me better understand children’s needs and behaviors, and I approach each child with patience, empathy, and care. I’m reliable, responsible, and always bring a positive attitude, whether we’re doing homework, playing games, or winding down with a story. I’d be honored to be a trusted part of your child’s day! :)

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!

Hello there! I'm beginning my search for a new nanny position and would love to connect with a great family! I bring 14 years of experience working with several long-term families and am CPR certified. I also have a reliable SUV, making school pickups, outings, and adventures easy and safe. I'm a mom of two: my 2-year-old son joins me during the day, and my 5-year-old daughter is in kindergarten. Both of my children love making new friends and have blended beautifully into past nanny settings. My approach is play-based, hands on, and centered around creating a fun, engaging environment where children can learn through real life experiences. We spend lots of time outdoors, rain or shine (as any Oregon family understands!) exploring parks, nature trails, and staying active. If you think we might be a good fit, I'd love to connect and chat more! 😊

Hi, I'm Mariel and I would love to help you and your family! I am currently 28 years old and live in Beaverton. In recent years, I've been a nanny for children ranging from newborns to middle schoolers. I have nannied for about 6 years and have always had a passion for kids! My most recent nanny opportunity was with a 10 month old girl (started at 6 months) and sometimes her 3 year old brother. I feel comfortable working with multiple children at once. I love playing with the kids and helping them grow! I have my own car so transportation would never be a problem and I am also CPR and first aid certified. I'd love to hear back from you! Thank you! Mariel
