Thanks for your time, looking forward to meeting you and your littles!

Hello Families!
With over a decade of professional childcare experience and a background as a Waldorf preschool teacher. I specialize in creating nurturing, engaging environments tailored to children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids.
I love supporting children’s growth through activities like arts and crafts, imaginative play, storytelling, singing, and outdoor adventures. Whether helping infants reach developmental milestones, encouraging toddlers to explore the world around them, or fostering creativity in older children, I bring patience, enthusiasm, and a personalized touch to my care.
Families often share how much they value my calm, reliable presence and my ability to balance structure with fun. I’m also happy to assist with light housekeeping and meal prep to help your days run smoothly.
If you’re seeking a caregiver who will keep your children safe, happy, and thriving, I’d love to connect. Let’s discuss how I can support your family!

Hello! I'm Jed and I am from South Carolina, but have been living in Portland for the past 3 years. I was a nanny for a family of 4 kids for many years when I lived in SC, and it was such a fulfilling job. Now that I am in Portland, I would love to get back to working in child care. I am a goofy, animated, person, who loves to see kids get creative and use their imagination. I was a special ed teachers assistant for a while and I also have a passion for helping kids learn. In my free-time, I love to cook, hike, read, travel, and I am also a portrait photographer.

"Lili is a loving, collaborative person, she helped me a lot with my daughter's development, she is responsible and punctual. Since Sofie was little she was interested in doing activities for her motor development and that was a great help, she read to her a lot and asked her opinion when she finished reading her favorite stories, I recommend her 100%"

A little bit about me
Hi families! My name is Jennessa Jackson, I have been in the childcare field for about 4 years now going on 5. I am 19 years old, a college student at Portland State University studying Child, Youth, & Family Studies hoping to be an Occupational Therapist one day or an Early Childhood Educator. I have experience by being a nanny for a family in NE Portland for two girls ages 6 and 9, since they were 2 and 5. While doing that, I was in High School completing Sabin-Schellenberg’s Technical Center - Child Development Program. I did this all four years. The first year was a more textbook informed study, second year was hands on with kids aged 3-5. The third year consisted of me in Mt.Scott Elementary School working as a Kindergarten Aide, and the last year was a practicum level 2 for child & family services working as a Kindergarten Aide as well. I just recently worked at a Daycare in Portland working with kids aged 1-5 , but had to be cut short because of an unexpected family emergency.

Nanny Lucas
"Lucas is calm, kind, responsible, and so great with the kids — they have so much fun playing with him and immediately felt comfortable around him. 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!"
