A little bit about me
My name is Kiara and I have over 7 years of experience in the nanny and childcare space. I have worked with children ranging from 2 weeks to 12 years old but specialize with those 7 and under. I have worked with medically fragile and those with disabilities which is also a specialty kind of care I can provide. I am BLS certified (A step above CPR, intended for healthcare professionals). I am actually a nurse by trade, but in a transitional period in my life and career as I take a step back to cure some burnout and care for an ill family member and would love to invite part time work as a nanny once more (I did it from high school and up through nursing school). I am confident in my ability to care for your children, engage with them, and make our time together a blast while also enriching their age appropriate development in fun and exciting ways.
Fun facts: I am a dancer (Latin ballroom, jazz, and hip hop!!), bookworm, love being out in the sun, and am the queen of crafts :)

A little bit about me
I most enjoy imaginative play and fostering hands-on learning! I've worked as a student aide for The French American International School here in Portland and also have experience as a part-time private nanny for several families.
I feel that I connect with children on the spectrum for autism or other areas of neurodivergence in a special way too, as I am an autistic-ADHD-er myself.
I am in search of part-time or occasional work, can assist with overnight stays, and am also open to longer-term possibilities. Please reach out if you have any additional questions or are in need of references.
Best,
Alexandra

A little bit about me
My family and friends call me a busybody because I love to engage in many hobbies and organizations to uplift my community. A few months ago, I was elected as the Oregon Student Nursing Association president, overseeing all the Oregon nursing program associations. I also work as a liaison (All-Hill representative) between OHSU's nursing program and the University to discuss pressing matters in the nursing, dental, and medical programs and vote on funding to change these issues. A few of my hobbies are cooking, baking, hiking, going to the gym, singing, and studying artwork, and I am trying to learn how to play the piano right now!
