A little bit about us
Need part time childcare for my sweet and happy 10-month-old daughter roughly 1-2 days/week for around 4 hours each day in the late afternoons. Duties include minor dishes and food prep, minor clean up/vaccuum, supervised play and learning, reading books, and changing diapers. We have two very friendly indoor only cats who will also be around but no actually care is required.
My daughter is very busy learning how to crawl and able to pull herself up to stand. She loves books, singing songs, playing peek-a-boo, going for walks in the neighborhood, and trying all the new foods! She takes naps twice a day and will likely sleep for a portion of the time we'd need care. We prefer someone come to our house for these reasons. Plus we have all the gizmos and gadgets a baby could need here!
It would be an easy part time position with opportunities to add more hours potentially in the future or for date nights. We'd love to see if you'd be the right fit for our family!

Wednesday through Friday full day care. My children are 1 (girl), 3 (girl), and 5 (Kindergarten).
Our current Nanny is moving, and while we are sad to see her go, we are looking for a new individual to join our lives! We are a traditional home with plenty of room for play and outdoor space, along with a zoo membership, and budget to take them on field trips as desired.
Our daughters remain home during the day, and our son will start Kindergarten at a private school in the fall. He will be dropped off by us, however we do require pickup at 3PM; and will reimburse for gas and mileage in addition to the hourly pay.
We provide groceries as selected for our nanny for meals while in our home, and can pay as frequently as needed (we currently pay every Friday).
No pets in our home.

My little girl Scarlett is 2 months old and usually very happy. I would like someone who could help me out on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday this may vary from 6 to 8 hours a day. I do have dogs and cats. The cats will lounge all day and the dogs my need to go outside once or twice. All of my animals will want cuddles eventually. And so does the baby.

A little bit about us
Hello! We are looking to join or start a nanny share in North Portland in January. Our son will be 7 months old and we’re looking for a family with a similar age baby. I need 2 full days per week (ideally Tuesdays/ Thursdays). We would love if the other family can host since we’ve got a sweet, shy dog that is apprehensive with strangers. Looking for another lighthearted, open, and playful family, who loves outdoor time with kids, wants to avoid screens until they’re older, is updated on vaccines, and prioritizes evidence based child development guidelines. Families (and eventually nannies) from diverse cultural or language backgrounds are very welcome. Please message me if interested!
***FYI my care needs will fluctuate by academic term and we may not need care July-August.

Hello!
We are looking for a nanny or a nanny share in our area to work four to five days a week. The days and times are flexible, but my work schedule is generally 8-4:30.
A bit about the job: we have a baby girl on the way, will be born in December 2024, and a 4.5 year-old, very sweet, smart, strong, silly, and adventurous big sister! We are looking for care for our newborn from when she is about 4 months old (March or April) until she can start daycare in September 2025.
Responsibilities will include supervising and engaging in playtime with her, lunch and snacks (including some prep and clean-up), picking up toys after playtime, putting her down for naps, reading books, going for walks in the stroller, and occasionally doing her little kid laundry. No regular care needed for her big sister, but there may be some odd days when she is home (if her school is closed).
We value time in nature, reading, music, creative play, lots of FUN! and of course, safety.
Let us know if you're interested! We would love to meet with you.

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Portland, OR
If you’re looking for an infant nanny job, you’ve come to the right place! We can help you find an infant care job in your area. Start by telling families about yourself in your profile, and then chat with families to find the right fit. When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Portland, OR
An infant nanny is a nanny that specializes in caring for newborns. They are skilled in diapering and providing care for any rashes, swaddling, bathing, feeding, and burping. Some infant nannies further specialize in care for premature newborns or multiples.
Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is an infant nanny job interview. Here is a list of some infant nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What is your specific experience with this age group?
- Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Portland, OR? Are you willing to be trained?
- How do you handle a crying baby?
- How often do you usually offer parents updates during the day?
- What do you feed an infant? At 0-3 months? 3-6 months? 6-9 months? 9-12 months?
- How do you set up the infant’s crib for a nap?
- What kind of activities will you plan to engage my baby?
You should be prepared with your references for past nanny jobs, and ideally, past infant jobs. Prior to the infant nanny interview, be sure to think about questions that you might have for the family. This is a great time to ask questions about the responsibilities and compensation for the infant nanny position. To make sure everyone has a shared understanding of the role and responsibilities, we recommend asking for a job offer or a nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
