Hi there, I’m Corinne! I believe that creative play is integral to a happy life so being able to facilitate that for kids who are just discovering each new medium is a dream come true. I have a BFA in Studio Art from Western Washington University and have spent the past two years working at arts-centered preschools where I lead weekly projects for the students. Their fresh approaches and willingness to experiment are incredibly inspiring for me. I love babysitting and nannying because it gives me the opportunity to work one on one with kids which isn't always possible in a preschool environment. I have always been an avid reader and find a lot of joy in reading stories with children.

Hi there! My name is Ray. I’ve worked in a variety of non-traditional and traditional education settings for over a decade. My favorite experience was being a camp counselor at Camp Tamarack, I loved how learning outside made kids more engaged with the material and each other. It means a lot to me to connect children with to the nature near them, especially since I was born and raised in Oregon. Besides that, I’ve worked mostly in nursery and early childhood education settings. I also really value reading, at every age. Going to the library is one of my favorite things to do in Portland! I would be happy to help you and yours get to picnicking at local parks with new books in hand. I also firmly believe in sliding scale payments. Your budget should not restrict you from having high quality, compassionate care.

Hi, My name is Yana. I babysat throughout high school and during the summers through university. Babysitting helped lead me to becoming interested in child development, and eventually to becoming a preschool assistant teacher for three years. Being an assistant teacher taught me how to blend patience with authority in order to help and teach a classroom of ten or more students. I helped my coworkers maintain a healthy, fun classroom, and made sure we had a safe environment for all student and staff. Although I have loved teaching, I’d like to move into a more personal child care roll. My intention is to be a helping hand in looking after one or two kids. Additionally, I am an animal lover and would be happy to provide animal care as well.
