A little bit about me
I have been babysitting for almost 9 years now. I have always had a passion for caretaking. I recently moved to Portland and am looking to find a great family to help out! I am an organized, loving, creative young woman. I come with solid references to back up my experience with kids. I put safety first whether I am taking the kids to the pool, making collages together, taking walks in the park, or baking cookies together. I also come fully prepared with nutritional meals to cook for the kids I work with. I have also worked as a housekeeper so I am comfortable doing jobs around the house like laundry, cleaning, getting groceries, etc. I have my own transportation! I have a strong educational foundation and a love for nurturing and helping children develop in their own ways. I want to contribute to your children's growth and development and I'm confident in my skills that help do so. I can't wait to meet your children and family and make strong, lasting relationships!

A little bit about me
Hello my name is Kristin, I’m a loving, responsible, and dependable mom with two children of my own. Being a mother has given me years of hands -on experience caring for children, managing daily routines, preparing meals, keeping children engaged and entertained, and creating a safe and nurturing environment.
I truly enjoy spending time with children and would love the opportunity to care for another family’s little ones. I’m open to caring for one or multiple children and am happy to work with different ages and schedules. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children, and I would treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I give my own.
I’m also comfortable incorporating activities such as outdoor play, crafts, reading, music, and age appropriate learning into the day. My goal is to make sure children feel safe, loved, and happy while their parents are away.

A little bit about me
Hi families! My name is Jennessa Jackson, I have been in the childcare field for about 4 years now going on 5. I am 19 years old, a college student at Portland State University studying Child, Youth, & Family Studies hoping to be an Occupational Therapist one day or an Early Childhood Educator. I have experience by being a nanny for a family in NE Portland for two girls ages 6 and 9, since they were 2 and 5. While doing that, I was in High School completing Sabin-Schellenberg’s Technical Center - Child Development Program. I did this all four years. The first year was a more textbook informed study, second year was hands on with kids aged 3-5. The third year consisted of me in Mt.Scott Elementary School working as a Kindergarten Aide, and the last year was a practicum level 2 for child & family services working as a Kindergarten Aide as well. I just recently worked at a Daycare in Portland working with kids aged 1-5 , but had to be cut short because of an unexpected family emergency.

A little bit about me
I’m a part-time nanny as well as a mom to a toddler. I like to keep things lighthearted when I work with kids. I’ll often offer to play a silly song so that little ones can dance and get their energy out in a positive way. I also offer both hugs and space, both talking time and cool down time, depending on what kids seem to be communicating that they need in the moment. I typically try to speak to young children without too much “baby talk,” so that they can grow their vocabulary and become competent communicators.
My approach to childcare is informed in part by the ~3 years that I worked in daycare settings. In those environments, I learned a lot about child safety and typical child development. In nannying settings, I’m able to adapt that knowledge to the needs of the specific home that I’m working in.
