Ryan Heick

Portland$20/hr | 4 yrs experience

Hello! My name is Ryan (she/her) and I LOVE children and working with families to fit their needs as a nanny. I have experience in watching children for the past 7 years and have worked as a pre-school teacher in a daycare for several months in the past. I have worked with children ranging from infants all the way up to 12 year olds. I also have experience working with children with autism. Childcare is the most rewarding experience for me and I am always honored to help any family take care of their children and clean the space they call home. I am a loving and accepting person who wants to spread love through teaching and working with children along with seeing the world. I hope to get in touch with you soon!
Sincerely,
Ryan Heick

North Portland, Portland$20/hr | < 1 yr experience

Hi there! I’m a fourth-year nursing student who loves to work with kids of all ages and of all different needs. I’m fully vaccinated and take COVID precautions seriously. My interests range from cooking and baking to gardening and exploring the outdoors to drawing/painting/making music, and I would love to facilitate activities like these with your child/children. I come from a huge family and have been taking care of my younger cousins, nieces, and nephews for as long as I can remember, and am committed to treating all kids I care for like family. I’m looking for a full time nanny position for this summer, can begin as soon as the second week of May, and am able to continue part time nannying over the school year.

Hi everyone!
I am a hands on, baby wearing, booboo kissing nanny that loves to sing, dance and play outside all day rain or shine.
My favourite age to work with is infants because they grow so much every single day.
It's amazing to see how beautiful the trees are or the first snowfall through a child's eyes and I feel so lucky to get to be apart of their individual journeys.
Currently, I work in SLC at a Montessori school
I have studied one year in E.C.E. and one year in psychology pre-covid
I am daycare teacher certified, just recertified as a special needs caregiver, and am in school to be a full spectrum Doula with BAI.
I have all relevant trainings for childcare up to date (CPR/AED/FIRST AIDE, Oregon trainings).
I am fully vaccinated, wear a mask when going indoors, and sanitize regularly.
I am not accepting positions where the parents work from home.

Beverlee Reyes

Portland$17/hr | 1 yrs experience

Hello parents! I’m a super zen kind of person, I have been in the child care field for about a year(professionally) and I absolutely love it. I am currently a nanny for a baby girl full time and she’s my life (aches my heart to have to eventually leave) but I’m headed up to Portland around September to start school and am looking to connect with and grow with another family as my own. I previously worked at a Montessori and would work with up to 14 kids( they were all great)! My kind of style: Something about distracting this generation with technology is not right to me so I enjoy a lot of hands on activities, such as outdoors, arts and crafts, exploring and other brain powering activities. I have a service dog who comes along, he is amazing with babies, and has such a good instinct with them (also loves other dogs). We are a power team and would treat anyone as family. I would love to make an impact on your babies life.💕
I am also fully vaccinated :)

Have you considered a nanny share?

A nanny share is when one nanny cares for children from two different families. Each family saves significantly on child care expenses, while the nanny enjoys higher pay than the typical full-time position.

Nanny Shares in Portland, OR

The Strahl Family

Portland$25/hr | 2 kids

Looking for a nanny share with our two boys. They love the outdoors and socializing with other kids.

Hours would be 8-5 (with some flexibility), Monday to Friday. Happy to host several days as we both work from home.

The P. Family

Metzger, Portland$20/hr | 1 kid

Need part time childcare for my sweet and happy 10-month-old daughter roughly 1-2 days/week for around 4 hours each day in the late afternoons. Duties include minor dishes and food prep, minor clean up/vaccuum, supervised play and learning, reading books, and changing diapers. We have two very friendly indoor only cats who will also be around but no actually care is required.

My daughter is very busy learning how to crawl and able to pull herself up to stand. She loves books, singing songs, playing peek-a-boo, going for walks in the neighborhood, and trying all the new foods! She takes naps twice a day and will likely sleep for a portion of the time we'd need care. We prefer someone come to our house for these reasons. Plus we have all the gizmos and gadgets a baby could need here!

It would be an easy part time position with opportunities to add more hours potentially in the future or for date nights. We'd love to see if you'd be the right fit for our family!

The Yeoman Family

& Marie Baker

Northeast Portland, Portland$18/hr | 1 kid

Hi! We are seeking a NE family with a 3 year old who is looking for part-time care. We'll be doing Tuesday/Thursday 9-1.

Our 3 year old is very sweet, shy, and a bookworm who likes to hike and romp at playgrounds.

We have a wonderful nanny who started with us in October. She was previously with a family who is very close to us, and they are moving on to preschool, and sad to end their time with her. She has a preschool background, and extensive experience with kids. Mid-30s, very kind soul.

We just moved to NE, near 29th and Fremont, after 6 years in SE Portland. Hoping to host at our house and are very open to co-hosting back and forth.

We don't do screen-time at home, and try to get outside every day rain or shine. Healthy snacks are a must.

Please reach out if you'd like to share with us!

Michael S.

Mike is incredible! From the moment we met Mike, it was easy to see how knowledgeable and skilled he is. He did a wonderful job with our daughter — provided us regular updates, a thorough recap at the end of the day, and great advice when we asked for it (he’s truly an expert!). He’s the kind of child care provider I wish I had as a kid. I can’t recommend him highly enough! - Ashley

Michael S.

Michael helped watch our 1 year old twins on evenings and weekends as needed. He is well trained, great with kids, and very focused on their development. He loves bringing them for walks and doing things outdoors which we really appreciated. We are very picky about our childcare providers as twins are not easy, but Michael had prior experience with multiples which gave us a lot of comfort. - Christina Reszka

Michael S.

He was very respectful of my wishes with the children and they enjoyed when he was watching them. He is extremely good with babies! We enjoyed our time with him very much - Rachel

How to Hire a Nanny in Portland, OR

Nanny Lane is a nanny website to help you find a nanny in your area. Our nanny services include background checks, nanny contracts, and nanny payroll.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Portland, OR

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Portland Nanny Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:

Do you have experience being a nanny?
How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
Are you open to a live in arrangement in Portland? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
Do you have any references?
Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Portland?
Do you have a driver’s license in OR? Do you own a car?
What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references, and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
