Hello! I am looking for a nannying position in South East Portland, preferably South Tabor area. I'm 30 and I've been babysitting since I was about 10 years old. I have been a waitress for the past 10 years, primarily in sushi, and am looking to take a brief break from my profession. At the end of the day, all I can say is that I'm great with children. I'm smart, funny and am looking for something new. I can assist with homework if need be. I can cook (I actually owned my own restaurant a few years ago). I was an au pair for 6 children aged 2-13 for two years and can give you that reference if you need it. I also worked in an Early Education Center for a year in Colorado! I have taken endless classes on EE and am excited to meet a family to Read more work for here. A bit about me and my past times, I am a photographer. I love animals and have five ducks, two cats, two kittens and a dog named Ruby. I am active! I love to play tennis, boccee ball, go to the beach and hike. I had a job catering at the Oregon Zoo right now but obviously they are not currently hosting events due to Covid-19. I have a huge garden, I love to cook and I am a super organizer. Oh, I also have not left my bubble in seven months. Let me know if I would be a good candidate for your family! I could really use the work, as most could in the world these days.
