17 years of safe, engaging, skill building fun facilitation; supplemented with homework help, tutoring, and academic support... While attending university, I began facilitating recreation therapy respite for families adjusted by developmental differences. I also continued with the YMCA, YWCA and local youth bureau; all while also living and serving with the local volunteer fire department. Upon graduation I accepted a couple roles as Program Director, but soon realized that front line work was my truest passion. Since my work as a Family Advocate, Wilderness Therapy Guide, Kids Ski Instructor, "Manny" (Nanny), Firefighter, Alpine Manager, Mountain Bike Coach, Lifeguard, and Summer Camp Director for multiple camps, I have gained and honed a diverse skill set. My experience provides families with a compassionate, professional, fun loving, supportive, flexible, and nurturing care giver. Whether you need a one time “babysitter” or a commitment over an extended period of time, I feel confident that I can provide the stimulating and/or structured environment, balanced and tailored for your little people to thrive. Philosophically, I believe in and promote autonomy and democracy; encouraging choice, individuality, compromise, and teamwork. Ex: I do not believe in asking one to apologize, but rather explaining to them the relational benefits of such actions, and providing them the opportunity. Currently, I spend a lot of time in the mountains, tackling personal objectives; so though my location may be elsewhere, I may be looking to work in an area close to your childcare needs.

Hello, I’m a fun energetic 29 year old caregiver who has worked with children for the past 17 years. Originally I started babysitting for friends and neighbors, the children typically ranging from infants to early childhood. More recently I worked as a full time live-in nanny for one sweet boy, occasional sitter for multiple children including twins, and part time care for a sweet 2 month old. I have flexible availability, reliable transportation, love to do crafts, am comfortable in and around water, and am CPR and first aid certified. I’m happy to answer any questions that you might have and I can’t wait to meet you and your child(ren)!

Hello! My name is Shannon. I am currently a therapist and former childcare provider of over 10 years looking to fill a little morning time with nanny work. I am currently working later in the day starting at 1pm and would ideally love to find an opportunity 2-4 days a week between 8 or 9am to 12pm. I recently moved to the East Portland/Hawthorne area! Experience I have: -I've been with Sittercity since 2016 sitting and nannying for families throughout the years. -I am a former preschool/daycare teacher with over six years in that environment as a lead infant teacher, lead toddler teacher, and assistant preschool teacher. -Nanny experience additionally outside of Sittercity with families that I am still close with. -Former Early Learning Specialist teaching parents how to teach their young children and pediatric therapist experience that has kept me up to date with childcare and child development best practices. -CPR/First aid trained A little more about me and my approach... -I am a gentle re-director who can both hold boundaries well and also decern when different approaches are needed around meeting a need. -I am a constant teacher (it's just in my spirit after all my time with little ones) so my philosophy is to always be encouraging growth during my time caring for children. - I utilize a trust based relational approach where I build trust through safety while also following through with what needs to get done in a way that meets the child's needs. -With parents I am open to give an advice that is asked so I will not give unsolicited tips, that's only if you wanted to know something. For any work, I ask that pay is same day for non-regular work and work that is regular weekly pay is fine. I'm looking forward to meeting your family and caring for your little one!

I have been babysitting on and off throughout my entire life. I watched, played with and drove my own sister in my teens (we're 7 years apart) and now as an adult have watched her children (my nephews) from infanthood to preteen years. I also babysat for friends and acquaintances in my late teens and early 20s. I love playing make believe games with kids and reading stories together. (I'm a budding children's author.) Their sense of wonder and joy are so fun to be a part of. Being a caring constant in a child's life is so important for their short and long-term development. Every baby and child deserves to feel safe and loved by the responsible adults around them and I want to be a part of that support system. I went to Medical Assisting school in 2011 and learned a little about early childhood development and psychology. As a phlebotomist for 10 years, I was proficient in: allaying fears, making people feel seen and heard, being punctual and reliable, communicating to the patient's care team when any concerns came up, being empathetic in care, first aid and CPR, advocating for my patients, and teaching mindful breathing exercises to anxious people of all ages. I believe all of these things can apply to caring for infants and children, especially in assisting your children in feeling seen, valued, and understood. I try to establish reasonable and age-appropriate boundaries with kindness and respect. I would love to help you run a successful and happy household by supporting you in child care.

Hello families! My name is Vitoria, and I bring both professional experience in early childhood care and a genuine love for nurturing little ones. I currently work as a childcare provider at a daycare, where I care for toddlers around 3–30 months old, helping them grow, explore, and thrive in a safe and joyful environment. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I love creating engaging activities, from music and playtime to reading and gentle routines that build comfort and trust. My goal is always to provide a sense of stability, safety, and joy, so that children feel cared for and parents feel at ease. Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, spending time outdoors, and sharing stories and songs with little ones. I also speak Portuguese and English fluently, and I’m currently learning French, which can bring an extra fun, multicultural touch to care. I would be honored to support your family with childcare that combines responsibility, warmth, and genuine dedication.
