A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kimberly, but most people call me Kimber (either are fine with me). I grew up in a rural area and love spending time outdoors in nature, and have a passion for animals, film photography, and helping others.

I am CPR/first aid certified for both infants and adults, have a food handlers card, and drivers license with access to a vehicle. I also have completed multiple trainings through Oregon Center for Career Development in Childhood Care and Education including Foundations for Learning, Intro to Child Care Health and Safety, Prevention is Better Than Treatment, Recognizing and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect, and Safe Sleep for Infants.

I am familiar and comfortable working with children from the ages of 6 months up to 12 years, and am up to date on vaccinations including Covid-19.

I look forward to getting to know your family!

"Kimberly was the best nanny I’ve ever had. I wish I could have kept her forever but completely understand her need for exploring other avenues. Throughout the time she worked for me I saw my son flourish in ways I never saw with other nannies. She was the most supportive and enthusiastic nanny and when it came to teaching my son she never ceased to amaze me. I seriously cannot recommend her enough. When I tell you I trust her with my kid completely, I mean it. If you have any questions regarding her time spent with my family please feel free to reach out."

More About Me

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

I have been working with kids since for over 15 years, I started babysitting at the age of 12 and began working professionally at the YMCA Early Childhood Development Center at 19. Since then I have been a private nanny for local families, and currently work at at a daycare/preschool.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I grew up in the country and love hands-on outdoors activities! Whether it is going to the park to learn about nature and exercise, or spending a day at the zoo. Learning alongside kiddos brings me joy, reading educational books or visiting a museum such as OMSI is a wonderful pastime. I like to help my young friends grow skills that will help them thrive, such as cleaning up after yourself and basic self care. Fostering independence is so important, I prefer letting children learn age-appropriate skills and only intervene when needed.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Developing bonds with not only the children but their families, and becoming a trusted figure that provides support and love.

My experience with special needs children...

I grew up around and have worked with children who have mental and physical differences, from mild to severe, and am comfortable with all aspects of it.

The most important part about being a nanny...

As a young adult I struggled with acne, and once had the sweetest 4 year old ask why I had polka dots on my face! I still laugh about that to this day, their curiosity and innocence is the best part of the job.
