Elena $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Elena (I go by Ellie!)and I’m coming up on my 5th year in childcare. I have worked as a preschool teacher for two years and a (wobbler) daycare lead teacher for almost 3 years, as well as babysitting for families I connect with through my teaching. My passion is early childhood education and individualized care, I am always working towards learning more and training. I am CPR certified, have trained specifically for safe sleep, food handlers, and about to be a step six on the Oregon step registry. I am about halfway towards my CDA certification as well! I love to make art and music, hang out with my dog and learn random facts about whatever interests me at the moment! I’m a California transplant four years out and I’m still getting used to Portland fall and winter! 🌧️❄️

Krystin $26 per hour for 1 child

My name is Krystin. I have 13 years of experience working in licensed child care facilities and I've had the chance to work with all age groups, from infants to school-age kids. My favorite thing about working with children is watching their face light up when that concept they've been working on finally clicks. I've spent a lot of time planning and implementing curriculum, helping kids build social and emotional skills, and making sure their basic needs are taken care of throughout the day. I also recently earned my state certification in early childhood education, which has really strengthened my knowledge of child development and best practices. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified. I'm easygoing, patient, and excel in creating positive parent and child relationships. My goal is to create a safe, fun environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I'm happy to discuss anything further or answer any questions.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"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)."
