A little bit about me

Hiya! I love children with all my heart, I grew up taking care of siblings and other children almost daily. I worked with special needs individuals while in High School. I have a deep love for caring for others, and pride myself on my patience and understanding. In my free time I love to take my dog on long walks, read, and make art.

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Violet, and I am a high school student in Portland, Oregon. I will be turning 18 in early October and am currently seeking opportunities to provide after school care for families.
I have three years of official experience working with children through the City of Portland’s summer camp programs. I have been providing babysitting services for the past five years. Working with children is something I am truly passionate about, and I’m eager to continue gaining experience.
Through my training with the city, I’ve received instruction in supporting children with disabilities, managing social and behavioral issues, and handling sensitive topics such as bullying and grief. I have also personally worked with children with disabilities and those experiencing significant emotional challenges.
My rates are flexible and can be adjusted based on the number of children. I do not charge extra for children with special needs or those requiring additional support.
