More About Me

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

I have 2 years of experience in childcare. My high school offers a daycare program I was involved with my sophomore and junior year. Which I worked in 3 days a week. I absolutely loved it. Then I took my experience from that and became a part-time nanny for one family for a year in 2024.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I both enjoy indoor/outdoor activities. I love to let kids express their creativity as well as being educational. Indoors I love to do arts and crafts, science experiments, puzzles, etc. Kids imaginations are so free and I love to let them explore what they want to do. Being outdoors is also very important for kids physical health and development, their education, and their social skills. Outdoor activites, I love to play sports, go to parks, nature walks, and chalk drawing!!

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me is providing a safe, loving, and consistent environment for every child. Being a positive role model is incredibly important, as children learn so much from what they see. I strive to always be the best version of myself.
I focus on creating an atmosphere that is educational and encourages creativity, independence, and kindness. Building trust and forming a strong bond with both the child and the parents is essential, as it helps everyone feel at ease.
I want families to always feel comfortable and confident that their children are safe and cared for. I also make it a priority to respect each family’s parenting style, ensuring consistency and support for the child.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with special needs teens in high school. Through my unified classes I took junior/senior year. All though I don't have as much hands on experience with special needs children as Id like to. I am always willing to learn.

The most important part about being a nanny...

A sweet memorable moment of mine is when the parents had just gotten home. As we were chatting about the day.
their baby took their first steps. It absolutely made all of us jump with joy celebrating.
I already felt like part of the family and that really was the cherry on top!!

Julie J. - Seeking Work in Salem

Part-Time Nanny Available in Salem, OR: Julie J.

After a 15 year fulfilling career in marketing, I took an intentional career break to focus on personal growth and raising my two children. During this period I started my own cake pop business from home so that I can stay present for my children. Over the last 5 years I have been a part time nanny for a few families ages newborn to five years old. I remember the feeling of leaving my children with someone else when I went to work and I cried every morning. I was lucky enough to find an endearing nanny for my children to help
Me through those times. I am hoping I can do the same for another family.
