More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

* In-House substitute at Sunstone Montessori
* Upper Elementary Assistant at Franciscan Montessori Earth School

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is to protect the family's time together. By helping with the children, the housekeeping, and the grocery shopping and meal prep. When all these things align, the family has more time!

My experience with special needs children...

My nephew is disabled. He's autistic, legally blind, and has poor motor skills. I have known him his whole life and I have been his caretaker and representative payee for over 15 years (although only since adulthood). He's still very childlike at 38 years old, if that counts for anything.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When the kids I was nannying remembered my 30th birthday and gave me a sweet little stuffy with a hand-made and heart-felt card.

That and havig the magic touch to calm down a hysterically crying child.

Brandi G. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Portland, OR: Brandi G.

Hello! My name is Brandi Gonzalez, and I’m from the PNW. I love spending time with my husband, cooking and baking, enjoying good coffee, and taking walks around the neighborhood.

I’m passionate about working with young people and currently work part-time at a nonprofit serving middle and high school students. My faith in Jesus is an important part of who I am, and I strive to treat every family and their beliefs with kindness and respect.

I’m hoping to find a part-time nannying position, around 20–30 hours a week, and would love to support your family in whatever ways I can. I’m also happy to help with household tasks for an additional rate, depending on the task and time involved.

I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see how I can be a caring, dependable addition to your home!
Kimberley P. - Seeking Work in Portland

Babysitter Available in Portland, OR: Kimberley P.

Hi! I'm a Grandma of 4 grandsons who are all teenagers now and I desperately miss caring and playing with infants. I moved from Iowa to Portland in the summer of 2024, but prior to moving, I was a part time nanny for a beautiful family. I started with their first baby at 3 months of age and they had their second baby boy when he was 11 months old. I continued nannying for them up until I relocated to Portland. It was incredible having 2 little boys to care for again!
I also worked with newborns in labor and delivery, pediatrics and NICU at Unitypoint St. Luke's in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for over 20 years as a nursing assistant.
So, needless to say, I'm really missing having that baby contact!

Kathleen R. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Kathleen R.

I am so excited to be starting a new chapter in my childcare career. Leaving teaching at a school is a bittersweet feeling, as I've built so many beautiful relationships with the children and families I've worked with. Over my years teaching, I've worked hard to learn everything I can about how to best nourish a children's growing mind. I have vast experience working with babies as young as 2 months old and as old as 3. I am ready to dedicate my care to an individual child and family. I absolutely love being a trusted loved one to sweet little ones, and find building secure attachments to be extremely rewarding for all parties. I love playing, reading, singing, and going on adventures with kids. I have an expansive knowledge of baby sign language and find it a beautiful way to communicate with growing minds. I've been planning and carrying out engaging and educational projects on a daily basis. It's an incredible joy to watch a young child experience our world for the very first time!
