Meet Bethany
- Comfortable with pets
Hello! My name is Bethany. I am 27 years old. I most recently nannied a two and three year old in Chicago, but moved to Oregon to be closer to family. I absolutely love being a nanny and being able to spend my day with children, watching them grow, and forming a relationship with them. Taking care of children is second nature to me; growing up my mom ran an in-home daycare and my family did foster care. I was always helping my mom with the other children. I have worked at two preschool/daycares and had multiple babysitting jobs. I have also taken some college courses on child development. I am definitely a hands-on nanny and believe it is important to interact with the children, I am not just there to watch TV and make sure their basic needs are met; I am there to nurture, guide, and foster their Read more development. I like to find learning opportunities in every day life. Reading and crafts are some of my favorite things to do. I love taking them to the park when the weather is nice and finding new ways to have fun if we are stuck in the house when the weather is bad. I look forward to hearing from you!
