A little bit about me

I’m a full time teacher at the moment in a 5th grade classroom. I have a bachelors degree in elementary education and a masters degree in the art of teaching. I come from a big family so I’ve always been around kids. Since high school I have worked summer camps with elementary aged children and still do so. I love to work with children and especially do any form of arts and crafts with them.

Pyeper W. - Seeking Work in Portland

Babysitter Available in Portland, OR: Pyeper W.

Hi families!
I am currently a student at Portland State University, where I am majoring in Elementary Education. I have a strong passion for working with kids and a knack for it, too. Nothing is better than watching a kid grow into a better version of themselves and knowing that you helped.
Growing up as the oldest of five, I quickly gained a lot of babysitting experience. During high school, I began babysitting for other families, volunteering at summer camps, and helping out with various youth sports events. I have one year of professional experience with Care.com here in Portland.

Sky M. - Seeking Work in Portland

Babysitter Available in Portland, OR: Sky M.

Hi! I'm a 26 year old artist and experienced child care provider.

I have spent 10+ years working with families as their sitter/nanny, in overnight camps, in day camps, and with after school programs. Working with kids and giving the next generation a sturdy, supportive foundation is one of my passions and greatest joys.

I prioritize families who have LGBTQIA+ or neurodivergent members because I have lived experience in these areas and can empathetically relate. I also know it can be hard for these families to find child care providers, and all kids deserve excellent caretakers. I identify as nonbinary and have ADHD & ASD (think Amelia Bedelia-- she was a hard worker but just needed clear communication)!

I prefer meeting families and doing a working interview before agreeing to any long-term arrangement! Thank you for your time, and I hope you're having a great day.

Basil S. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Basil S.

I’ve had the joy of working with children ages 0–5 for over five years. My journey began in preschool classrooms, then led me to teaching toddlers, and now I’m lucky enough to work as a nanny. Over time, I’ve come to deeply value the beauty of building one-on-one connections with children.

My approach is always child-led—I believe each child has their own unique way of learning and experiencing the world, and I do my best to follow their lead. It’s truly a privilege to get to know each child as an individual and to adapt my care in a way that honors who they are and what they need.
