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.

Fabiola R. - Seeking Work in Portland

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

am a caring, responsible, and patient person who truly enjoys being around children. I am a mother of two children, ages 16 and 24, so I have many years of personal experience caring for kids. I have also helped my brother care for my nieces and nephews, which has given me even more experience with children of different ages.
I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for children. I also love dogs and feel very comfortable around pets, and fortunately, I do not have any pet allergies. I would be happy to provide dependable and loving care for your family.
Eden M. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Portland, OR: Eden M.

I bring over 10 years of early childhood educational and care experience, both in and out of a classroom, to every new family. My technique to nannying tends to pull from the Reggio Emilia approach and involves a mixture of gentle guidance and redirection while following the child’s lead based upon their interests and questions. I excel in helping busy families create and maintain schedules that they can incorporate to their homes even when I am not there. I also have experience in home management, organization and design, and helping with any projects or errands to make the day feel lighter for the family. Overall I have dedicated a decade now to caring deeply about every child I meet, and I am looking forward to continuing.

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!
