I have extensive experience working with children ages 6 months to 18 years old in various settings ranging from nannying to daycare to summer camp to all levels of schooling.

A little bit about me

Hi Parents and Guardians!

My name is Kara. I am 35 years old and live in Portland, Oregon! I have been a nanny going on 16 years now (I can't believe it)!
I have experience with children ages infant - 16 years old. Of course, job responsibilities have varied depending on the ages of the children, but some of my skills include:

Early Childhood Development, Infant Care, Routine Adherence, Development of Social Skills, Recreational Activities (love library time, OMSI trips, and fun outdoor activities!) Behavioral Modeling, Toilet Training, Light Housekeeping, and Maintaining Children's Safety.

I have a pretty flexible schedule and can adapt to most scenarios quickly.

Looking forward to meeting you and your kiddos :)

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Ezruh I’ve never had a nanny position. But I worked for an elementary school where I was a health aid for a boy who has cerebral palsy and was also deaf. It was a classroom setting so I also had multiple other children I would assist with. For roughly 2 years I did that. I also, ran an after school program with children from kinder-6th grade. I currently teach swim at a swim school with children ages 2-12 years old. I am Cpr certified and lifeguard certified.I enjoy working with kids, and would love to help out how I can!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ava, I’m a senior in high school (18) and planning on moving out in the next month because my parents want to move to Europe and I have decided to stay in Portland! I would like to work as a live-in nanny because I absolutely love children and have 3 younger siblings of my own. I work very well with kids and am very responsible and hard working. Unfortunately I will not have my car that I currently have now once my parents move but I do have my license:) I am very open to house keeping and meal prep as well as any light cooking! I have about 6 years of experiencing babysitting and nannying for other families and 16 years of watching over and taking care of my younger siblings ;) I’m saving up money for college right now and am ready to start a job as soon as possible!

A little bit about me

I have 5 years of early childhood teaching experience in a licensed childcare facility. I have experience with children of all ages and abilities. I can help with childcare and learning while also helping with cooking, cleaning, and other household tasks.

I love helping children learn through play and letting them lead our learning. I grew up here in Portland and I feel it is very important for children to get time outdoors no matter the weather!

In my free time I enjoy cooking, playing with my dog, hiking, and reading.
