A little bit about me

Hi! I’ve worked with special needs children before, volunteered by making dog treats for the humane society, cleaning the beach, cleaned books for a drive that gives them to kids who can’t afford them, manny more, and I can make meals that look like characters! I was Vice President in school, I am a certified soccer referee, I’ve chaperoned field trips, and I can speak a bit more than basic sign language:) I have a lot of experience with tutoring and have been told I should teach for a living. I have a lot of hobbies and interests, such as art, ukulele, animals, cooking, yoga, photography, comics, and I make blankets for insomniacs:)

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Annika! I am currently in nursing school while working full time as a nanny and house manager for 4 children under 5 years old. The family I nanny for is moving to Arizona near the end of summer so I am slowly starting my search for a new job but would most likely need to move to something slightly more part time as I will be starting clinicals in September. I am unsure what my schedule will look like quite yet, but should know more later this summer. With that being said, I would need a family that is somewhat flexible on days/hours most likely. I have worked as a caregiver in a nursing home and then as a nanny for about 3 years now for kids ranging from newborn-12 years old. I am reliable, hardworking, caring, and fun! I would love to hear more about your family and what exactly you are looking for!

Hello!

I'm Sophia, a recent graduate from the University of Oregon as of June 2024.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Hanna. I have a silly-goose-dance-party-structured approach to child care that really aligns with most kids I have the delight to work with and learn from. I am a classically trained cook which was once a full time profession of mine, so I deeply enjoy cooking/meal prep as well. I am very active and prefer to get out of the house with kiddos if it is warranted, to attend events and outings/play dates. I love OMSI (I am a member of their astronomers club!) and any sort of educational/interactive experience. I am open to any and all questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about me

I am a calm, patient person, and I adore working with children. With my previous families, it was always a joy to be there for milestones such as first steps and words, while being a trusted and reliable source of support.

I am open to adapting to each family’s routines and childcare style. I do prefer a screen-free approach, encouraging reading, play, and activities that support learning and development. I give the children I look after my full attention and care.
