I enjoy time with kids so much, specially with little ones. I speak Spanish, English and basic French. Also, I am an outdoor person and I really love arts, specially singing! I used to be an AuPair in Beaverton for 1 year and 7 months. I watched three kids: a 10 months-old, a 3.5 years-old and a 5.5 years-old. I was in charge of waking them up, preparing meals, make sure they brush their teeth, preparing baby’s bottle, changing diapers, dropping off and picking up the older ones to school, takings them to the park to play, setting playdates with friends, to the library, potty training, teaching the little one to speak (I used to speak to him Spanish and he understood very well!) and to walk. It was an amazing experience! I left and dedicated myself to my career (I got a bachelors degree in Mass communication) around the world: Mexico, Venezuela and Spain. I just came back to the US and my previous host family received me to stay while I set everything up here. The younger kid is now 7 years-old! Before coming to Beaverton I spent a month in Chicago, since my sister lives there and I took care of 2 siblings: a 3 years old girl and a 8 years old boy. I can give you references and my resume. I’m currently taking care of two 11 months-old in a full-time nanny-share situation. I’m available on weekends and evenings for date nights!

I have been a full time professional nanny for the past 13 years in Portland (ages 0 - 9). I am looking for occasional or part time babysitting jobs. This could be weekday mornings, evenings or anytime on weekends. Currently I have a part time job Monday - Thursday from 12 - 5 pm. I love to paint anything, read, make slime & playdough, do cooking & science experiments, play games & pretend with stuffed animals, build & collage with recycled materials, go on outdoor adventures, play ball, swim, get soaked at water parks, and laugh and play on the floor for hours. I follow the RIE Philosophy of Childcare (Resources for Infant Educarers). Basically, I trust and respect every child to be an initiator, explorer and a self learner. I also respect every emotion a child has. I am a good listener and, as they grow, I give guidance and natural consequences with respect and kindness. I especially enjoy engaging with children to find the joy in the everyday tasks like clean up and cooking. In one of my full time nanny jobs I cared for 3 girls for 5 years (now 6, 8 and 10). I am a certified Type 1 Diabetes caregiver (0 - 6 yrs old) for the youngest girl. I've also handled emergencies such as broken bones and allergic reactions. I was also the Homeschool Art & Science teacher. This family has since moved. I have worked with infants , along with siblings, in all of my nanny jobs, which has given me extensive infant care experience including making homemade purees, cloth diapers and potty training. Personally I love to cook, read, weld metal art, do yoga and listen to music. I have also raised 2 kids of my own. My 3 main strengths as a nanny would be: 1. Good parent communication 2. Calm and capable in emergencies 3. Creative inspiration for kids (artist background)...10+ years of kids art & science projects as a nanny. I believe inspiring a child's curiosity is the key to learning. My current and previous employers are all happy to talk, text or email and answer any questions you might have. I look forward to connecting with you to see if it's a fit.

Natalie B., Babysitter in Happy Valley, OR 97086 with 8 years of paid experience

I have babysat for many friends and families over the past 7 years, before and after school, on weekends and consistently throughout the summer. I also worked in a daycare, part-time during high-school, interacting and taking care of children starting as young as 2 months old. I love going on adventures, playing sports, being outside, trying new & creative things, baking/ cooking as well as working together and using an imagination to have fun! I have enjoyed getting to know all of the families that I have been lucky enough to care for and I'm excited to get to meet new people and any animals/pets are a bonus! :) I am currently going to school in Portland for nursing, but looking for some occasional sitting within the area to fit in my schedule!

Marley rae W., Babysitter in Happy Valley, OR 97086 with 10 years of paid experience

I have been a nanny/babysitter for as long as I can remember! I absolutely love kids and teaching them fun new things and sports! Other then nannying I have coached volleyball for the past 6 years anywhere from 6th grade to High School Varsity, and during club season from U-12 to U-16 teams. I have one year left until I get my bachelors degree in psychology with a specialization in child development and after that plans of getting a Master in mental health counseling for school aged kids! I have extensive infant and toddle care as that is my current working situation and has been my job for the past few years! I have done things from “shorter" jobs such as date nights and giving rides to places, all the way up to overnights where I spent the entire week with three boys while their parents were out of the country. My past experiences make me very versatile so I am open to anything that you might need help with from young kiddos needing bottle feeding, sleep training, food transitioning, potty training, etc. And for older kids I’m happy to give homework help, create and implement structured days, prepare meals, and clean up. A couple random things I honestly love are running errands/grocery shopping and doing laundry. I understand life is unpredictable so I’m happy to provide sick care! The most kids I've watched at once not including playdates was 4 at a time and it was a blast. I would say that I am a very flexible and understanding person and am always happy to to grow and change with your family’s needs. I think it's very important to build a good relationship with the kid(s) and parent(s) so it's a nice experience for everyone. I love getting outside and playing and even going on day trips to explore! I am fully vaccinated and have my own car (with 7 seats) and a clean driving record! I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos!

Hi Families! My name is Rachel and I’m 23 years old. I am currently looking for a nanny job that is either part-time or full-time. For as long as I can remember, I have absolutely adored infants and children! Even when I was a kid, I loved spending time with kids who were littler than me. Some things that I enjoy include arts and crafts, going on walks, having picnics in the park, and baking. I am vegan, but comfortable preparing food that is not. I do not have professional childcare experience, but am eager to gain it. I am First Aid/CPR certified, in the Central Background Registry, have my Food Handler’s card, and have taken Foundations for Learning, Introduction to Child Care Health and Safety, Recognising and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect, and Safe Sleep for Oregon’s Infants. I am up to date on vaccines, including Covid and Flu. I am comfortable with working with 1-3 children of any age. My rates start at $15 an hour. Excited to speak with you!
