A little bit about me
Hi! I’ve worked with kids for over 8 years and have absolutely loved it! I’ve worked both in the CA school district as a paraeducator in the regular and special needs classrooms, have been a nanny for nearly every age group, including infants, and have been a private, in-home tutor to kids with ASD. I have also been licensed as an EMT in CA if that feels useful. I am currently switching professions to accommodate by school schedule, as I will be returning for a master of counseling (which will take a few years to complete). I look forward to meeting your family!

A little bit about me
I am an experienced caregiver who previously worked as a licensed teacher. I have spent ample time working in the public primary classrooms and with children my entire life. I value freedom within boundaries, learning through doing, responsive care-giving, and modeling social-emotional literacy. We get outside everyday! Our safe, clean, and cozy North Portland home is fully equipped for caring for another baby or toddler.

Hi there!! If you are in need of a full time nanny to take care of their littles, feel free to reach out and learn more about my experience! My husband and I just got married in June and have moved up to Portland so that he can begin his grad school in chiropractic. Graduated from GCU this March with my elementary education degree. I can give out contacts for references from previous families and welcome in person interviews to be sure it’s the right fit!

Hello! My name is Grace, and I am a current daycare teacher looking for extra experience as I attend graduate school. In the past nine years, I helped teach at several schools, and I've nannied for both neurodivergent and neurotypical children. With both, I love to introduce art, music and play into their lives to build their own confidence and see them grow! Because of this experience, I can work with kids 0-18.

A little bit about me
Hey there! I like to consider myself a professional facilitator of fun (but am also happy to help with the not-as-fun stuff like homework, too). I have been working with kids for over 10 years, officially getting my start at an overnight summer camp in 2013. Since then I have worked as a nanny in homes, in a museum, in multiple tutoring programs, in youth work programs in Scotland, and a few different schools as well. Most recently I was the director of an after school program for middle schoolers through the Boys & Girls Clubs of Portland.
I love reading, doing arts & crafts, hiking, games, visiting museums, writing, yoga, cooking, and gardening to name a few things, and hope I can do some of these things with the kids I'd be working with!
I love getting to build relationships with the kids & families I work with, so I hope to find a long term nanny job. If time permits, I'd also be open to shorter term & one off jobs!

We absolutely recommend him to other families!"
