A little bit about me

Hello I’m Velvet! I’m fun, happy go lucky, organized and responsible.
I have two younger siblings and am the oldest cousin so I’m well versed in childcare of all ages. I also have cared for many kids on the Autism spectrum.
When not caring for kiddos, I usually have another job in food service.
My dream is to become an expert at somatics as well as a dance and yoga teacher.
I am NOT available for any live in situation.
Thanks for your time, looking forward to meeting you and your littles!

More About Me

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

Through my experience working at a non-profit dance program, I worked to nurture the creativity and body awareness of children ages 3-13.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Arts and crafts, science experiments (making slime, etc.), walking/hiking, going to the park, reading, etc.

My experience with special needs children...

I've worked with kids that have Down Syndrome, are on the Autism spectrum, at-risk youth, and various dietary/health needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my littles falling asleep on me during bedtime stories. He's autistic, so it takes a long time and patience for him to get comfortable, so it was a big deal for me.

Rosie D. - Seeking Work in Portland

Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Rosie D.

Hello I'm Rose,
I started working as a nanny when I was 15. The experience of watching two girls grow from babes to beautiful ruffian laddies stuck with me as something I want to do the rest of my life, which I have. My life has been kid- centered, through the study of fairy tales at Sarah Lawrence college, playing Snow White at Pono Learning School (NY), Enrichment teaching for two years at KidsCo (WA) leading/ assisting herbal, wilderness, and horse camps, and work with disadvantaged children while traveling in Africa. I love nannying for the closeness and deep friendship it allows. I tell stories, play games- all sorts, especially pirates, read aloud, teach baking, go boating, clean, adventure, help with music, art, and theatrics. I encourage children to spend lots of time out of doors and with animals (I come with a dog. My personal interests are study at the All Merciful Savior Russian Orthodox monastery, acting, child advocacy, martial arts, and work on a farms.
Lucy L. - Seeking Work in Portland

Part-Time Nanny Available in Portland, OR: Lucy L.

I’ve been caring for children professionally for 9 years, with 15 years total babysitting experience. I love the opportunity to explore, play, and bond with kids, and I understand and appreciate the responsibilities of being a role model and caregiver for children. It is my nature to be silly and curious, and I have not lost my sense of imaginative play--dressing up, reading and telling stories, and making arts and crafts are still some of my favorite things to do. I value connecting with and nurturing children of all ages, as well as ensuring I clearly and effectively communicate with parents to create a harmonious, smoothly running household for everyone.
