I started babysitting when I was 12 as my first job and I just fell in love with it and have been doing it ever since! Working with kids has it’s challenges but I find the pros always outweigh the cons. I am fun, active and patient person who loves to go with the flow. My hobbies include hiking, scrapbooking and exploring new places. I’m always down for an adventure! I have found that my personality and my passion for teaching children has helped me become a really great nanny. While I still am a nanny part time, I am looking to add some extra hours to my schedule if the right family thinks I might be a good fit.

She is the most amazing and caring nanny I have ever had. She cared for my children like they were her own and I trust her explicitly. She taught my daughter sign language, helped when she was potty training and has extensive experience and knowledge with child care. I would recommend her to anyone!

Hailey P., Child Care in Independence, OR 97351 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi there! I'm a 19 year old who's looking for a part-time baby/petsitting job. I have some experience watching and meal prepping for younger kids with food allergies, (roughly a year). I'm willing to be flexible with pay on account of my experience amount with younger kids. I love hanging out with kids and I feel I can be a good friend as well as a caretaker. On the side I'm a licensed real estate agent. I have 3 cats and a dog. I love crafting and playing video games with my friends. I have a fairly free schedule and im willing to do days off pattern with ample warning. I drive my own car (clean record!) and I am comfortable being out later at night. I hope I can help some families out!

My girls have had nothing but fun with Hailey! To put it simply - when I come home from work and get the down-low on the days activities: boo boos have been attended to, kids are fed dressed and clean, and to top it off they did a new activity that day which was stimulating and fun. Haily helps to make sure things are running smoothly in the household and she doesn't add to the chaos.

Hello. I am a retired trauma nurse who worked at OHSU and Salem ER. I have a lifetime of experience working with children.

Children keep me young at heart and on my toes. My full attention and care will be provided.

Briana D., Child Care in Independence, OR 97351 with 16 years of paid experience

My experience consists of quite a variety of care over the last 16 years. I have been both a live in and live out nanny, for various amounts of time. I have been an on call, long-term, split shift, overnight, and everything in between, nanny. I have done my time teaching preschool and working with families of all sizes and multiple ages. I have my associates degree through Clackamas Community College, with all my elective studies finished in ECE/ECD and Family Studies. I bounce between making people's hair dreams come true (I'm a licensed hair stylist) and hanging with my favorite little people (childcare) and I am currently looking for a little one to care for to vibe with my 3-year-old little girl and do fun activities with us! I not only enjoy being a part of each child's development and learning experiences, but also the interactions and relationships that are developed throughout the time spent together.

Brie G., Child Care in Independence, OR 97351 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi families! My name is Brie, and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to care for your little ones! I have professional experience working with children ages 1 and up as a cheer coach, where I’ve developed strong skills in patience, communication, leadership, and creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment. I’ve also babysat for many family friends over the years, giving me even more experience caring for children of different ages and personalities. I have taken child development classes and earned several certifications, including SafeSport, CPR, and First Aid training. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone else’s care, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and positive experience for every family I work with. I have such a big love for babies and children, and being around them truly makes me happy! One day, I hope to become a mom myself, but for now, I would love to share that love by helping other families and making their lives a little easier whenever I can. Whether it’s playing, helping with routines, keeping little ones entertained, or simply providing extra support for busy parents, I would love to be someone your family can trust and rely on. I can’t wait to meet your family!

I’ve always loved working with children which is why I chose to pursue a teaching career and have been a preschool teacher for 8 years now and currently learning to be a midwife’s assistant. I love being creative and be inspired by a child’s limitless imagination. I’ve worked in an outdoor play based program and love being outdoors and just having fun! I take pride in being able to hold space for children to be their true authentic selves.
