Meet Daphne

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! I’m Daphne. I’m currently an art student attending MECA in downtown Portland. I was CPR-Certified at age 11 and have been babysitting ever since. I have always had a love for children of all ages, (especially for babies though), and have a high patience with them. I grew up with five siblings both older and younger than me, so I’m used to a full house! Along with babysitting, I have been hosting private art classes for kids for several years now. If you’d be interested in me incorporating art practices into my time with your children, I’d be happy to! I can also cook, clean, do laundry, etc. I always had a really close relationship with my babysitters growing up and was inspired by them. I hope nothing more than to create that kind of bond with your kids, too! Let’s make nights with a babysitter something to look Read more forward to. (:
