Hello! My name is Evin , I am 30 years old, I’m a Mom of a 2 year old, and I have lived in the St. John’s neighborhood of Portland for the last 3 years! My daughter is a very high energy active toddler, she has taught me so much about taking care of little ones! I am also an experienced caretaker / guardian for my partners two other children from time ages 7 and 11 and have learned much from them as well. I have experience taking care of children of a wide range of age as I spent years working in several different preschools after high school, i then went on to study some psychology and early childhood development and education courses. Im certified in First Aid, AED, and baby and Child CPR. I hold a certificate of completion for the advanced childcare course by American Red Cross Between the professional experience working privately with families and at schools, and the personal experience with my own child, I can guarantee you I am someone your child can feel safe and comfortable with. If you are looking for help with a younger baby, I would be able to help depending on the circumstances of your needs. Thanks for considering me to be your child’s baby sitter.

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! 🌧️❄️

Hi! My name is Sarah M. I moved to Vancouver, WA about 3 years ago! I am a toddler mom that has a almost 3 year old! I have been taking care of kids my entire life! From watching my nieces and nephews to babysitting kids from my church! I knew i’ve always had a passion for kids! Child Experiences: I have experience from infant to 10year olds! I love playing board games or doing crafts with kids! I grew up dancing hula while living in Hawaii! Pet Care: I’ve always been a dog lover my whole life! I can always dogsit for you while you are on vacation! I think dogs would be more comfortable in their own home so I can stop by and let them out and feed them as well! I dont mind a little walk or playing fetch with them! I don’t mind cats at all! Household Services: I don’t mind doing light housework while watching the kiddos! If the kiddos or pets need to be fed I can do that too! I can assure you that your children or fur babies will be fed a good meal!

I'd describe my personality as caring , intelligent , responsible I like working with kids not only because I love them , but also because I believe that we have a lot of things we can learn from each other. I do strive to provide them a warm supportive healthy environment where children can not only feel safe and loved, but also feel valued and deeply encouraged to learn , grow and become more and more confident. I'm looking for a job that gives me the chance to interact with people(especially kids) , help them (my love language is acts of help). I started working with kids when I was really young In my spare time, I like to play violin and piano , read, study (because I'm also a med student ) , read books , go hiking . One thing you should know about me is that I'm a trustworthy, experienced, patient and a kind and compassionate person My skills include responsibility , love and kindness

Hi! I’m Dakota and I am currently in grad school at PSU for clinical psychology. Upon graduation I’ll be a therapist! I am offering child care, pet care, & household services. I love interacting with kids and seeing how their little brains work and process the world. tapping into play as an adult is so important and little ones are a great example of that. I have been working with kids since I was 14 years old and still watch my friend’s kiddos to this day. Ranging from infant to young children 10-12 years old. I also love pets! I have two cats of my own and grew up with lots of dogs around so I welcome a home that has a furry friend. I can’t wait to meet you and your family :)
