A little bit about me

I have devoted the better part of my life towards working with kids in various capacities from ski instructing to summer camp directing to program development to tutoring. My philosophy when it comes to childcare is based around creating a safe and engaging atmosphere where kids feel they can try new things and experiences without the fear of failure. I believe in experiential learning by way of getting outside and engaging in the world around us. I don’t believe in talking down to children and in fact I try and engage with kids on a level of mutual respect and trust. I believe in positive reinforcement and giving kids a second chance when it comes to behavior problems in the sense that without the tools to understand what they could have done differently in a given situation a child may never learn to correct that behavior. I have spent time as a prep-cook and a line cook in various commercial kitchen settings. My hobbies include skiing, mtn biking, climbing, camping, and travel.

A little bit about me

Hi families, my name is Steven Long, 29 years old, and currently reside in West Linn OR. Blessed with 2 wonderful boys (7,9) that I share 50/50 with. I have them Wed & Thurs and every other weekend (Wed-Sunday). I am currently a football coach at Lake Oswego.

Earned an athletic scholarship to Portland State University on a full ride and graduated with a degree Interdisciplinary and a minor in communications at Western University.

When I have my boys, being a dad first has been the biggest blessing. As a coach/role model to the kids I have had the privilege to coach and mentor has been rewarding. My wife is a nurse/nanny and seeing how rewarding it is to do something different outside of my career.

On the days I don’t have my boys, I am looking to nanny some kid(s). I am an active, engaged dad that likes to go and do fun activities outside. I am looking to find a family that wants their kids to get out and enjoy what Oregon has to offer.
