A little bit about me
I am a mother of 3, I currently work with adults with intellectual disabilities, I have experience with children on the autism spectrum, as I formally worked as a behavioral technician, and I come from a big family so I have lots of experience with all ages of children. I have been a caregiver for adults for over 6 years and have lots of cooking experience. I am fully vaccinated for covid 19 and I am covid cautious.

A little bit about me
I'm incredibly emotionally intelligent, and have a working familiarity with conflict resolution and open and honest communication. I'm an odd but kind person, and that helps me get along great with kids. I love reading, writing, painting, crafting, playing video games and playing TTRPGs. I'm more of a relax at home than a go out and party often person, though I love adventures and exploring nature and the city around me. I love helping be a part of a child's life and being a good influence on them as they become their own person.

Hi! I am a third year college student taking courses at Portland State and pursuing a career in teaching.

I'd love to take care of your little ones and help out wherever I can! My availability is quite flexible and I could work with whatever schedule you may be needing.

A little bit about me
My name is Lizzy (she/her). I love nature, reading, watching women's soccer, and spending time with my spouse and dog. As a queer woman with a nonbinary partner, I'm looking to find a family to work for who is accepting to all.
I worked with infants and toddlers in the Early Childhood Program at Shalom Austin from Aug 2011 - July 2020. Since 2020 I've nannied for a few families with kids from 5 months to 6 years old. While nannying, I've done everything from creating lesson plans with engaging activities to facilitating homeschool kindergarten.
When it comes to taking care of babies (and all kids, really) I'm all about encouraging child-led play, using baby signs, and supporting natural physical development to help foster their independence. I love coming up with developmentally appropriate activities for any kiddo, as well as setting up child centered play spaces to create a more engaging environment.
Please message me for more info!

My name is Audrey, I just moved to Portland from Bend in September! I have been a trusted nanny and babysitter for many years. I have a 7 year old brother and a 2 year old niece that I absolutely adore. A few years ago, I worked at the Athletic Club of Bend and helped run the seasonal childcare programs, which was a blast! Most recently, I nannied for a family with a newborn and 2 young children. I love kiddos, and I find it fascinating and wonderful watching their personalities bloom and grow! Please feel free to ask any questions or give me a call!

Nanny Lucas
"Lucas is calm, kind, responsible, and so great with the kids — they have so much fun playing with him and immediately felt comfortable around him. The fact that he is majoring in nursing is an added bonus and gives us extra peace of mind. He is dependable, easy to communicate with, and creates such a positive, relaxed environment. We absolutely recommend him to other families!"
