More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

* In-House substitute at Sunstone Montessori
* Upper Elementary Assistant at Franciscan Montessori Earth School

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is to protect the family's time together. By helping with the children, the housekeeping, and the grocery shopping and meal prep. When all these things align, the family has more time!

My experience with special needs children...

My nephew is disabled. He's autistic, legally blind, and has poor motor skills. I have known him his whole life and I have been his caretaker and representative payee for over 15 years (although only since adulthood). He's still very childlike at 38 years old, if that counts for anything.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When the kids I was nannying remembered my 30th birthday and gave me a sweet little stuffy with a hand-made and heart-felt card.

That and havig the magic touch to calm down a hysterically crying child.

Kathleen R. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Kathleen R.

I am so excited to be starting a new chapter in my childcare career. Leaving teaching at a school is a bittersweet feeling, as I've built so many beautiful relationships with the children and families I've worked with. Over my years teaching, I've worked hard to learn everything I can about how to best nourish a children's growing mind. I have vast experience working with babies as young as 2 months old and as old as 3. I am ready to dedicate my care to an individual child and family. I absolutely love being a trusted loved one to sweet little ones, and find building secure attachments to be extremely rewarding for all parties. I love playing, reading, singing, and going on adventures with kids. I have an expansive knowledge of baby sign language and find it a beautiful way to communicate with growing minds. I've been planning and carrying out engaging and educational projects on a daily basis. It's an incredible joy to watch a young child experience our world for the very first time!
