Meet Bridget
- Registered Nurse
- Comfortable with pets
My name is Bridget Kratz and I am a Registered Nurse who recently moved back to Portland. My experience working with kids started at age 11 when I took the Red Cross Safe Sitter Class. Since then, I've extended my experience to include professional childcare working with kids of all ages, with a special emphasis on kids experiencing disabilities including Down's Syndrome, autism, and physical disabilities. I love helping youth to foster creativity, independence, and love of nature through outdoor recreation and open-ended art projects. I have 14 years of past experience as a babysitter and I am First Aid/CPR certified. I would be honored to work with you and your family!
