A little bit about me

I have always enjoyed working with kids. I started volunteering teaching Sunday school at my church when I was in middle school. I mostly worked with kids ages 2-6, but have experience working with younger and older children. I volunteered in that role throughout high school and loved it. I became one of the lead teachers as well. I babysat for six or more families throughout high-school. I have some experience with children who have special needs. I have experience as a lifeguard and swim instructor, with that I am also First Aid/CPR certified. I am comfortable with all types of pets, and am willing to provide care for them if needed.

Emily C. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Emily C.

Hello! My name is Emily! I am 22 years old and a recent graduated from University of Puget Sound. I now have my bachelors in Kinesology and Neuroscience and plan on applying to medical school in three years.

I love reading, the outdoors, and I have the most adorable cat!

I have a car to commute to you! I would be open to one time coverage or a long-term position.

I started babysitting when I was 13 (ages ranging from infant to 10. years old) and became a camp counselor at 17. Here, at camp, I spent 8 weeks of the summer with a cabin of ~12 campers ages 13-15 years old. I do, however, have experience working with all ages. At 15 years old, my family adopted newborn twins and I was a crucial part of their upbringing. I have a car to commute to you! I am graduating in May, but am planning on staying in the Seattle area post-graduation, and I would be able to move to full-time in the summer!
