A little bit about me

Hi there!

My name is Madison and I’m a 23 year old who just moved to Portland last year. I’m passionate about working with children and plan on working towards a career as a child mental health therapist! I’m very flexible with my hours, though during the weekends I do work a part time job in the food industry. I love arts and crafts and engaging the kids I nanny for in creative activities. I’m also a big believer in letting kids be kids and going on adventures outside. I have over 7 years in child care and it’s something I’m no stranger to. I’m excited to meet you and your kiddos!

A little bit about me

Hi there!
My name is Talia, and I am a soon-to-be senior at the University of Oregon as a PR major. I am 20 years old, and I have had babysitting experience for around 6 years. I love to create a fun, entertaining, and educational experience for your child, and I would love to get to know them and you. I have a car and have a great driving record with no tickets. I love doing housework, and I cook as well. I am working part-time at the Portland Golf Club and am looking for something else to fill my time! I have lived in SW Portland my entire life, and I love travel and interior design. I am allergic to cats, but I am ok being in a house with outdoor cats, and I love dogs. I hope I am what you are looking for in a nanny, and I would love to talk to you soon!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Chelsea May and I am looking for a part-time nanny position. I am currently in school to get my Masters in Social Work, and have focused my education on working directly with children. I am currently working in a middle/highschool setting, but have worked with all ages. I was a preschool teacher for two years for 0-4 year olds and worked with students of various abilities. I am very comfortable kids and love how you get to play and be silly with them. I have been a nanny before, during COVID, and provided personalized care to a toddler recently diagnosed with autism. I am happy to work with your child on their goals as well as provide them a safe, playful, and loving caregiver. I have been an employee with Child Welfare for 3.5 years so child safety is definitely a priority of mine.

A little bit about me

I grew up in a very large family, so I’ve been surrounded by children my whole life. I’m used to caring for multiple kids at once (up to 8 at a time!) and love every second of it. I’ve always been a very family-oriented person. In 2020, when covid shut everything down, I was a full time nanny for an 5 year old for about 6 months. I used to volunteer at an adult caregiving facility, where I would help prepare meals, engage in activities with residents such as art, bingo, and board games.
