Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Tyler O.

Hi! My name is Tyler! I love being a sitter because I like to help out when I can, and become an influence in a child's life. I am the oldest grandchild in my family with made me the automatic babysitter growing up. Spending time with my little cousins never felt like a job as I always kept things fun whether it be through creative or outdoor activities. I also worked for a neighborhood recreation center where I was an after-school and summer camp counselor. This experience also taught me how to help out with many kids at a time and problem resolution skills while maintaining a clean and safe environment. I am both first-aid and CPR certified and take pride in keeping environments safe. I am always hyper-aware in public environments and prioritize safety. I prioritize communication and time management. I also have my own car, so running errands and driving around is not a problem!

Olivia P. - Seeking Work in Portland

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Portland, OR: Olivia P.

Hello! My name is Olivia and I would love to help your family and care for your little ones! I started working with children as a floating teacher when I was 18 at a local daycare. There I discovered my love for this kind of work and was amazed by the minds of young children! From there I took courses and earned certificates to move my way up into eventually having my own preschool class! I loved planning lessons and staying involved in that classroom until they moved up to kindergarten. Please reach out if you have any questions!

Maria H. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Maria H.

Hello! My name is Maria, and I bring over eight years of experience in early childhood education, most recently as a school director and educator coach. I’ve chosen to step away from administration for a bit and return to caring for children one-on-one and supporting families.

I have cared for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, supporting each stage of development with warmth, patience, and routines. With infants, I focus on creating a safe, loving environment through gentle care, sensory play, and responsive feeding. For toddlers and preschoolers, I help guide early independence with activities that encourage curiosity, problem-solving, and self-help skills, including toilet learning and diapering with patience and consistency.

I naturally weave learning into everyday moments; whether it’s singing songs during diaper changes or practicing language through story time and ready to attend to families goals and needs.

I am CPR/First Aid certified. References provided upon request.
