Hi families! I’m an experienced, dependable, and calm sitter available for occasional or recurring babysitting in the Portland and Vancouver, WA area. With over 10 years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 12, I show up ready to help your family feel supported and at ease. Whether you need a night out, some last-minute coverage, or a regular go-to sitter, I bring warmth, creativity, and a grounded presence into every home. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, great with routines and bedtime, and always happy to engage kids with fun, thoughtful activities. I’m also available for light tidying, simple meals, and supporting emotional regulation if needed. My babysitting rate starts at $25/hour, and I’m happy to discuss based on timing, location, and number of children. I have excellent references and reliable transportation. If you’re looking for someone you and your kids can feel safe and relaxed with, Read more I’d love to connect!
