A little bit about me
Hi!
I am currently looking for a new family to help. I have to sadly say goodbye to my current lovely kiddo who is headed to preschool. I have done a mix of gardening, motherhood and a nanny for 20+ years.
I enjoy doing art, music, and connecting with nature. I have had personal and professional caregiving experience with children of all ages. I am also comfortable working with special needs kids and have references to show experience with this. I am confident going on adventures around town such as story times, Omsi, zoo,plays etc.
I will provide a safe, structured, kind space for them. I am CPR/First Aid certified and fully vaccinated. I have 2 daughters age 13 and 20 and hope to find a good fit so I can still help pick up from school. My happy place is when I'm with children, and I am hoping to meet my next best buddies.

"Elfina is absolutely who you want watching your child. She’s watched our little one for almost 2 years now, and he always has the best time with her, while we have complete peace of mind. Elfina is gentle, knowledgeable, playful, and creative. Sometimes we’ve come home to cookies, and one time we realized Elfina had taught our son how to get down from a tall bed safely! Many times Elfina has taught our son something new. It’s clear Elfina loves children. We feel really lucky to have found her and I couldn’t recommend her more."

A little bit about me
I love to participate in arts & crafts and i feel like all kids should be allowed to also. It’s a way of showing emotion and having fun at the same time, while growing their imagination which is an important part of children’s development. I love to explore nature, and view parts of our world that are so beautiful. Even if it’s just playing in the grass🌳🌈 I am a very easy going person, full of love and laughter. I am a high school student, but i do want to work with children in my future, and continue nannying through my college years. I feel i am a reliable, respectful, on time, and a flexible supportive person.

A little bit about me
I'm 16, non-binary, and worked with children for many years. I pride myself on gentle parenting techniques and believe there is no such thing as a bad or naughty child. Everyone is unique and different, I will not ever come into a household to speak ill on anyone's differences. That being said, I would not enjoy being in a household that scolds differences or uses physical punishment.

What Is a Weekend Nanny?
A weekend nanny cares for your children on Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Some weekend nannies work every weekend, and others are available for the occasional weekend when you have an event, a trip, or a work commitment. Many have another job during the week, so they are often flexible about shorter shifts and one-off dates.
Common Responsibilities of Weekend Nannies in Portland, OR
Weekend care looks a lot like any other nanny job: supervising play, preparing meals and snacks, getting children to activities, and keeping to nap and bedtime routines. Because weekends are often busier and more active, you may also ask for help with outings, birthday parties, sports games, or family errands.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Be clear about the days and hours you need, whether the schedule is regular or occasional, and how much notice you can give. Rates and pay rules, including how weekend hours are paid, vary by state or province, so agree the details in writing and consider using nanny payroll to keep it simple. If you only need a few weekends a year, say so up front so nannies can plan around it.
Weekend Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Which weekends are you available, and how much notice do you need?
- Do you work every weekend or only occasionally?
- Are you comfortable with outings and activities, and with driving the children if needed?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
- What rate do you charge for weekend shifts?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
