Tiffany G.
- 8 years paid experience
- 7 miles
My name is Tiffany and I have over eight years of experience in childcare. I love working with children and have experience caring for children of all ages, from new borns to teenagers. I am CPR/First Aid certified, and have completed the Advanced Child Care training through the Red Cross. I went to school to be a teacher and am still pursuing that in my free time. I took several years of ASL and love teaching children how to use sign language. Whether you are looking for a dedicated full time nanny or maybe just an extra set of hands to help from time to time, I would love to hear from you.

Amanda M.
She is the most amazing and caring nanny I have ever had. She cared for my children like they were her own and I trust her explicitly. She taught my daughter sign language, helped when she was potty training and has extensive experience and knowledge with child care. I would recommend her to anyone!

Hello families! My name is Alessandra and I have been caring for children since I was little. A little about my nannying background: I helped raise my little cousins, worked as a live-in nanny for 3 years in the US and Italy, and worked in a pre-school. I love children! A little bit about myself: What makes me the perfect candidate for families? I am a responsible, mature, and professional 25 years old. I have my own car with a clean record. I volunteer in my community for the child advocacy setting as a Court Appointed Special Advocate for children in foster care. I speak 4 languages: English, Italian, Spanish and German, I would love to teach your child\children! I have multiple references from previous families that I have worked for. I have experience with children ranging 6 months- 10 years old. I am comfortable watching up to 3 kids at a time. I can help with tasks such as morning routines, preparation of meals, school drop off and pick up, sports and other activities drop off and pick up, arts and crafts according to age, outdoor games, following nap routine, feeding routines, changing of diapers, and other light housework such as starting the kids' laundry or washing the dishes. Please, do not hesitate to send me a message if you want to learn more and book me as your babysitter! Take care, Alessandra

Alessandra is a drop in pet sitter for my 11 month old Goldendoodle and 2.5 year old Standard Poodle. She commutes from Salem to my home in Independence 1-3 times daily dependent upon the day. I have offered for her to stay and do her college course work at my home to save on gas money and some days she does just that! I enjoy when she’s there to keep an eye on my naughty Goldendoodle puppy who loves to chew things! Alessandra is attentive, on time, gives my girls SO much exercise, love, and even sends me cute pictures throughout the day. I’m so happy I found Alessandra and that my girls love her too. She is very responsive and flexible as well. I couldn’t have dreamt of a better match for my fur daughters. Thank you for all you do!

Very energetic caregiver who has a wide variety of experience in caregiving. I grew up helping my cousins and relatives, and as I got older I helped my friends who had kids. I have been caregiving for individuals with special needs and elderly for 10 years. I was a substitute teacher for 2 years for k-12 and I have always just gravitated towards helping others.

- 16 years paid experience

My experience consists of quite a variety of care over the last 16 years. I have been both a live in and live out nanny, for various amounts of time. I have been an on call, long-term, split shift, overnight, and everything in between, nanny. I have done my time teaching preschool and working with families of all sizes and multiple ages. I have my associates degree through Clackamas Community College, with all my elective studies finished in ECE/ECD and Family Studies. I bounce between making people's hair dreams come true (I'm a licensed hair stylist) and hanging with my favorite little people (childcare) and I am currently looking for a little one to care for to vibe with my 3-year-old little girl and do fun activities with us! I not only enjoy being a part of each child's development and learning experiences, but also the interactions and relationships that are developed throughout the time spent together.

Hi families! My name is Brie, and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to care for your little ones! I have professional experience working with children ages 1 and up as a cheer coach, where I’ve developed strong skills in patience, communication, leadership, and creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment. I’ve also babysat for many family friends over the years, giving me even more experience caring for children of different ages and personalities. I have taken child development classes and earned several certifications, including SafeSport, CPR, and First Aid training. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone else’s care, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and positive experience for every family I work with. I have such a big love for babies and children, and being around them truly makes me happy! One day, I hope to become a mom myself, but for now, I would love to share that love by helping other families and making their lives a little easier whenever I can. Whether it’s playing, helping with routines, keeping little ones entertained, or simply providing extra support for busy parents, I would love to be someone your family can trust and rely on. I can’t wait to meet your family!
