A little bit about me

Hello, I’m Emerald, I’ve worked with kids since my early teens, and have years of experience with kids of all ages in single families, nanny-shares, and daycare facilities.
I studied child development in college and love to put my skills to use caring for children from infants to school-age. I believe it takes a village to raise happy, healthy kids and it’s so beneficial for them to have multiple trusted adults in their life that they can trust and look up to. I currently specialize in infants/toddlers but love every stage of development! Read-aloud/creative imagination games are my forte, and I love to encourage emotional regulation and healthy development through age-appropriate activities. I’m well-versed in weaning/potty-training, as well as all the other fun milestones. I enjoy exploring the world with kids (visiting the library, zoo, etc) to encourage self-confidence/confidence in their community. I am pet-friendly/have no pet or food allergies. I am CPR/first aid certified.

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!

Brianna W. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Portland, OR: Brianna W.

I have been a nanny for nearly 14 years and have a background in early childhood education. I embrace supporting your child's own curiosity and creativity to learn, and emphasize communicating their needs and autonomy in a constructive manner as well as respecting the needs and autonomy of those around them. Whether you're a family or two or ten my goal is to integrate seamlessly into your own parenting plan for your kiddos; I am very open minded to new and familiar parenting styles but am also more than willing to offer advice when asked. I have experience with many different family dynamics and with all ages from newborn to preteen.
