A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Darla and I am originally from the east coast, but have been living in Oregon for the last 4 years.
I have a vast background of working in childcare and find it so exciting to connect with children where they're at and encourage them to be themselves, channel their inner creativity, and laugh till it hurts!
When I'm not nannying your kiddo(s), I am usually at home with my partner and cat, checking out local coffee shops, and photographing weddings!
I hope to have the chance to chat more soon!

Emerald D. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Emerald D.

Hello, I’m Emerald, I’ve worked with kids since my early teens, and have years of experience with kids of all ages in single families, nanny-shares, and daycare facilities.
I studied child development in college and love to put my skills to use caring for children from infants to school-age. I believe it takes a village to raise happy, healthy kids and it’s so beneficial for them to have multiple trusted adults in their life that they can trust and look up to. I currently specialize in infants/toddlers but love every stage of development! Read-aloud/creative imagination games are my forte, and I love to encourage emotional regulation and healthy development through age-appropriate activities. I’m well-versed in weaning/potty-training, as well as all the other fun milestones. I enjoy exploring the world with kids (visiting the library, zoo, etc) to encourage self-confidence/confidence in their community. I am pet-friendly/have no pet or food allergies. I am CPR/first aid certified.

I have been a nanny for nearly 14 years and have a background in early childhood education. I embrace supporting your child's own curiosity and creativity to learn, and emphasize communicating their needs and autonomy in a constructive manner as well as respecting the needs and autonomy of those around them. Whether you're a family or two or ten my goal is to integrate seamlessly into your own parenting plan for your kiddos; I am very open minded to new and familiar parenting styles but am also more than willing to offer advice when asked. I have experience with many different family dynamics and with all ages from newborn to preteen.
