A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sam!, and I’m a college student pursuing a career in the medical field. Caring for others comes naturally to me, especially after growing up in a family daycare where I helped out from a young age and eventually worked as I got older. This has given me 10+ years of hands-on childcare experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children.

Families describe me as trustworthy, patient, and reliable. I’m also very flexible and willing to meet each family’s unique needs, whether that involves adapting to different schedules, routines, or parenting styles. I take safety seriously, communicate clearly, and always try to create a warm, positive environment for the kids I care for.

I’m comfortable with meal prep, homework help, light cleaning, bedtime routines, and planning fun activities. I truly enjoy supporting children and giving parents peace of mind. I’d love to be a helpful, dependable part of your family’s routine.

More About Me

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

I gained experience working at Portland Parks & Recreation community centers, supporting kids during programs and activities. I also grew up helping in my family’s daycare business, where I eventually worked and cared for infants through school-aged children. In addition, I have years of babysitting experience for family, friends, and neighbors, giving me a strong background in providing safe, dependable, and engaging care.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing fun, engaging activities like arts and crafts, reading together, outdoor play, simple science or learning games, visits to the park, and helping with creative projects. I also love planning age-appropriate activities that encourage imagination, learning, and movement.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is providing a safe, supportive, and caring environment where children feel valued and understood. It’s also about building trust with both the children and their families, being dependable, and adapting to each child’s unique needs while making their time fun, engaging, and positive.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience caring for children with special needs, including my nephew, who has unique care requirements. Through this, I’ve learned patience, adaptability, and how to provide supportive, engaging, and safe care tailored to each child’s individual needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a caregiver was helping a child I babysat learn a new skill, like riding a bike or reading their first book, while seeing the pride and excitement on their face. Those little milestones and the trust children place in me are always rewarding and remind me why I love working with kids.

Laura L. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Portland, OR: Laura L.

I’m a part-time nanny as well as a mom to a toddler. I like to keep things lighthearted when I work with kids. I’ll often offer to play a silly song so that little ones can dance and get their energy out in a positive way. I also offer both hugs and space, both talking time and cool down time, depending on what kids seem to be communicating that they need in the moment. I typically try to speak to young children without too much “baby talk,” so that they can grow their vocabulary and become competent communicators.

My approach to childcare is informed in part by the ~3 years that I worked in daycare settings. In those environments, I learned a lot about child safety and typical child development. In nannying settings, I’m able to adapt that knowledge to the needs of the specific home that I’m working in.
