A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Jaycie, and I love to work with children! I am post-undergraduate from the University of Portland, with a degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I have a good history of working with children as I started babysitting my nieces and nephews when I was around 10 years old. Over the past few years, I have worked primarily with infants and toddlers, but I love kids of all ages! I have a long-term part-time babysitting gig from January 2021 to present, taking care of and transporting two children (9 yo and 11 yo) around the Portland metro area. If it is nice outside, I enjoy taking the kids to bask in the beautiful weather at the park. But if not, I also like to watch movies, tutor the kids, or play some games. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, reading, taking my dog for walks, working out, or watching movies.

A little bit about me

Hi there! I am looking for a new nanny position starting this summer because I'm relocating back to Portland, OR next month (mid-June). My last job was as a nanny for an adorable baby boy who I was with from 4 months old to 2 years old. I handled all aspects of his childcare including morning routines, changing, feeding, bathtime, playtime, outings (daily walks, park, library, children's museum, etc.), sick care (medicine, doctor's appts) and occasional overnights. I also handled some household chores and errands (groceries, laundry, dishes, etc.) and pet care (2 big dogs!). Prior to working as a nanny I worked in home healthcare primarily with elderly and hospice patients. I'm vaccinated for Covid and up to date on all other routine vaccinations (chicken pox, measles, whooping cough, etc). If you think you might be interested please let me know, I am happy to answer any questions!

A little bit about me

I am a responsible, caring, hard-working individual. I would love to watch and care for your kids if you would allow me to. Since COVID-19 has forced kids to do online work, I'd be very willing to help them complete online work to the best of their abilities. I enjoy cooking and cleaning. I am open to any other things that parents would require as well. Overall I am a well- rounded person who would like to help you out so that you can manage your busy schedules easily!

A little bit about me

My name is Nichole Ashenbrenner, I am 18 years old. During high school I took 4 years of child services, I've babysat family/friends kids from a new born to at least 10 years old. My first nanny job with in 2017 that I had for about 7 months, I also worked at a day care and there I worked with twenty 4 year olds. After this job I found myself back as a nanny for 2 girls who were the ages of 8 & 9. I've had many years of experience with children and I hope to pursue that with a welcoming family that needs some extra help. Hard worker, but also bit of a goofy. I get the job done also while entertaining the kids. My goal career is to become a pediatric nurse, so working with different types of family and kids is really helping my get on the right path.

A little bit about me

Hello I'm Victoria im 22 about to have a little one of my own july i personally think what makes me such a great nanny is that I have decided to make full time care of children a professional career because I genuinely loves children personally fulfilling.”

I wants to know all the details of how the parents like things to be done and will also provide plenty of details on what I do with the children when the parents are out.
I always let the parents know where the children are and I can be contacted at all times. late.

I will tidy up after the children i look after throughout the day and won’t need to be asked to do so, although any other chores and household tasks may need to be requested to be done by the parents.
I will have a plan to act in an emergency and will ideally be trained in CPR or be willing to learn.
I understand the importance of nutrition for children and can and will make meals for them.
I also have A lot of excellent references and will seek to maintain lifelong relationships with the families i work with.
This is what makes me such a great nanny.
Sincerely,
Victoria Wayne

A little bit about me

I’m Siena, I’ve been a professional nanny for the past 3 years and have been working with children for 10+ years in both the childcare and teaching sectors! I have served as an art and drama teacher, a reading tutor, an assistant teacher in kindergarten through third grade and a camp counselor. As a visual and performing artist myself, I always seek to instill a love of the arts and literature in the children I work with, starting at a young age. Reading, baking, drawing, and coming up with creative projects are my specialty. I work well with households that are looking for a family oriented professional to bring a greater level of fun, creativity, and independent skills to their children’s lives.
