A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Willow.
I have spent my entire life around kids and have been nannying professionally since August of 2018. My experience is largely with children under 3, however I have worked with all ages.
Building relationships with families based on communication and a desire for learning has always been my goal. Including but not limited to; a safe and creative environment for kids to be themselves.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I am the oldest of four siblings and have several younger cousins. As a teenager and young adult I babysat for multiple families. My professional nannying experience started in 2018. I have also worked with childcare agencies for more flexibly assigned, short term, roles.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Playing age appropriate games and exploring!

The most important part about being a nanny...

..to me is working with parents and other caregivers to establish a space for children that is safe and builds life skills.

My experience with special needs children...

I spent 1 year as Direct Support Professional for those who have intellectual or developmental disabilities and/or physical assistance needs that are outside the scope of “standard”. This includes children and adults.
Caring for people takes empathy and patience. A “special needs” diagnosis doesn’t change that. My focus is on providing the best support possible for each individual.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Anything that encourages bonding with the child(ren), be it activities they enjoy or learning a new skill. I'm also a sucker for those precious moments when babies fall asleep while being held!

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.
