More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
Preschool head teacher at a coop preschool; head teacher for Head Start; owning my own preschool. Being both an assistant director and a director at day cares. I was also a childhood coordinator at a recreation center. And of course being a nanny! Recently from 2022 to 2025 I was the Site Coordinator /Director at the Head Start in Lincoln City, OR. I am now retired from full time work and would love to work part time as a nanny.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Playing games, telling stories, getting the children to laugh by doing silly things. I enjoy reading to children and being very animated while reading the story. Love doing open ended artwork with the children and encouraging them to use their imaginations. Letting the children make up stories while I listen. Taking the children outside to play and doing as many activities outside as the weather allows.
The most important part about being a nanny...
making the children feel loved and safe.
The most important part about being a nanny...
All the moments spent with the children/child are special to me.
I think the moment that I show the child something new and they try it and are pleased with what they did.
Seeing those eyes light up and the great smiles on their faces, you just can't beat that feeling you get as a nanny! If working with newborns, the extra special moments are when I walk in the room, they look at me and smile with trust in their little eyes. That brings a big smile to me and a super warm feeling! As does the time of day they fall asleep with their head on my shoulder and their body completely relaxed, because they trust me to care for them.

Babysitter Available in Lincoln City, OR: Adelaide R.
Hi families!
My name is Adelaide (or Addie). I graduated in June from PSU double majoring in Psychology and Film Production and I have over 10 years of experience working with children and babies including two years of teaching and after school programs, several years nannying, and several years providing occasional family support/curated care. Originally I babysat once or twice a month and it turned into something which supported me through university! I love being around children, watching them grow and aiding their development. That was a huge factor in deciding to study Psychology!
My approach to childcare has always been rooted in prioritizing the specific requests of the parents I work with. I emphasize gentle, age-appropriate learning and activities, focused on the behavioral, emotional, and physical well-being of the child.
I now live in Lincoln City and am trying to build a network of families I can work with here as I’m sadly leaving behind my network in Portland.
