A little bit about me

Hello there! My name is Claire Elizabeth and I have been a childcare provider of many forms for the last 15 years. From being an expert professional babysitter, a preschool educator, and extracurricular instructor, to the education coordinator at Oregon Children’s Theatre, working with young people has always been my passion and strength.

I am returning to family oriented childcare, because I miss the connection of being hands on with kiddos, and being a part of a families life.

My strengths lie in Montessori child led education, arts engagement, organizing and executing social outings, as well as house work such as laundry, dishes, meal prep, and basic cleaning.

I would love to meet you and your family, to see if we are a good fit! References available upon request.
