A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Olivia and I would love to help your family and care for your little ones! I started working with children as a floating teacher when I was 18 at a local daycare. There I discovered my love for this kind of work and was amazed by the minds of young children! From there I took courses and earned certificates to move my way up into eventually having my own preschool class! I loved planning lessons and staying involved in that classroom until they moved up to kindergarten. Please reach out if you have any questions!

Hello my name is Sienna I just granted high school at the begging of this month and turned 18 in April. I have two nieces who are my entire world and I love exploring with them. I'm going to collage to become a teacher because I think it's so important to create magical memories with creative minds and I have so much love in my heart that I enjoy sharing it with other people. It would be an honor to watch your babies and you trusting me enough to.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Shannon. I've had almost 9 years of experience with all types of kids from newborn to teenagers, and from elite to special education. I've cared for many special needs children, having the most experience in autism. I like to take kids on outings, and anything having to do with the outdoors when the weather permits. I moved to Burbank in February to attend school for makeup, and build my skills. I’m a freelancer so I am very flexible with meeting your needs. I am originally from Portland, Or, and love the outdoors! I have loved working with children for asking as I can remember, I have a big family and was always the caretaker. I am a certified in advanced childcare at the American Red Cross, which means I know how to administer CPR/AED and the Heimlich when needed. I'm absolutely on board with meeting up and testing the waters, feel free to message me about any questions or offers, I'll be happy to hear from you, my email is [email hidden]! :)

A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Claire 🤍 I provide small-group care (1–2 children) for infants and young toddlers in my Tigard home (97223).
I keep my space intentionally calm and low-ratio so each child receives truly attentive, relationship-based care. My approach focuses on connection, emotional development, and creating a secure, predictable rhythm to the day. Children are supported in building confidence, regulation, and trust through consistent presence and gentle guidance.
Our days include outdoor time, simple play, and age-appropriate routines, all within a peaceful home environment. I prioritize clear communication with parents and provide regular updates so you feel connected and at ease.

The fact that he is majoring in nursing is an added bonus and gives us extra peace of mind. He is dependable, easy to communicate with, and creates such a positive, relaxed environment. We absolutely recommend him to other families!"
