Jordyn T. - Seeking Work in Portland

Nanny Jordyn

Portland, OR
$25/hr

7 years experience

A little bit about me

I’m Jordyn — a calm, intuitive, and deeply nurturing caregiver who shows up with patience, structure, and genuine warmth. I’ve worked in caregiving, DSP support, housekeeping, and childcare, so I’m comfortable balancing emotional needs, daily routines, and household flow all at once. Kids tend to connect with me quickly because I’m grounded, playful, and consistent.

I believe in creating an environment where children feel safe, seen, and encouraged to explore their own little worlds. I’m big on communication, gentle guidance, and keeping things running smoothly so parents can breathe easier. Whether it’s helping with routines, supporting big feelings, or keeping the home tidy and peaceful, I bring reliability, compassion, and a steady presence.

If you’re looking for someone who blends structure with softness, and who genuinely cares about the energy in your home, I’m a great fit.
