The most important part about being a nanny...

Patience and consistency! Children thrive when given the opportunity to learn through experience and being able to be patient is key in their independence becoming successful. Alongside patience, comes consistency being another key factor in children feeling safe and comfortable enough to try new things and explore the world around them.

My experience with special needs children...

I was previously registered as a behavioral technician, also have experience with some medical equipment (pulse ox, oxygen tanks)

The most important part about being a nanny...

I’d been working with a two year old boy and he was non verbal until one day after nap time I heard him saying his abcs over and over like we always practiced, the positive reinforcement helped push his drive to communicate and he showed much improvement with his speech therapist after.

Lesley Isabella Z. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Lesley Isabella Z.

Hello, my name is Lesley Isabella. I am 18 years old but with lost of experience with infants and toddlers. I am the oldest out of 5 kids. Being the oldest and unfortunately without my parents having child care I took care of my siblings a lot of the time. Which made me super responsible at a young age. I also didn’t mind it as I grew a passion for it. As soon as I started high school I took child psychology/child development and even worked in a day care. I have also babysat for family members and neighbors growing up. I know that I would be a great fit for this position as I am very creative and energetic. I have also been safe during these times with COVID-19. Thank you for considering me! Hope to hear back (:
