I have worked with children from birth through late teens. I have spent more than 29 years working with children. I love all ages (as one very positive mama said - " every age is the best age!" There are things about each age and stage if development I enjoy and I truly love seeing kids grow and learn and develop. I have experience working with children who have medical or developmental special needs as well. I love dogs and cats as well.

Hi! My name is Vanessa and I am very well experienced with children. I have 5 children of my own ages 17 through 29. I previously worked as a Spanish Teacher for the Beaverton School District. Prior to that I worked as a Medical Assistant for the Hillsboro Pediatric Clinic. Currently, I'm babysitting and enjoy it very much! I'm enrolled with the Oregon Central Background Registry and I'm also CPR/First Aid certified. I would love to help you out with your little one! If interested I can teach your child Spanish!

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 9 years of experience working with kids ages 1-13 as well as some experience with infants!

I am a very creative person and love doing fun activities with music, dancing, arts and crafts, and imaginative games!

I am currently working as a mental health therapist for adults, and am available for childcare on evenings and weekends. I have the most experience with infants through early elementary school age. What I most enjoy about spending time with children is how they bring me to engagement with the present moment, and witnessing how their curious, eager minds develop and interact with the world. I love spending time outside whenever possible, and enjoy indoor activities such as reading books, crafting, or playing with Legos. I have 15 years of paid experience working with children including working as a nanny and a Paraeducator in public schools. Because of my varied positions, I am skilled in a crisis, can help children navigate emotional challenges, and offer a sense of safety while encouraging playful expression.

Hi! My name is Caitlin and I am very interested in being your nanny!

I also come from a family of teachers and know the importance of fun filled learning activities at a young age. I am 29 years old am hoping to finish a Geography degree in the next few years. When I do return to school, I plan on taking night classes so I can be available full time during the day.
