I am an all around loving woman who loves to be of any help. I have been working with children all my life and have been babysitting since I was 13. I studied early childhood development at Portland Community College before moving on to Northwest Nannies where I became a certified professional nanny. i have work experience in a certified home daycare where I helped care for 12 children four of which were under 2. I'm pretty easy to get along with and just love to laugh and play with children. I love taking children on fun field trips to the zoo, , the park, or I let them pick as long as its a reasonable place. I have a safe insured reliable vehicle, with a pretty good driving record. I love to also sit and do crafts with the children and even will come up with fun and easy cooking projects to do with them.

I’m from the East Coast and moved to Portland two years ago and live outside Ladds Edition. I’m an experienced nanny and went to school at Western Kentucky University for special education. I am also an experienced petsitter and was a veterinary technician for five years I absolutely love spending time with kids and watching them grow. I refuse to lose my child like wonder. I am fulfilled when I see that I have had an impact on a child’s life. I grew up in a dysfunctional family. I know what it is like to have been astruggling child, but I’ve used it in a positive light. I think it is an honor and a privilege to interact with a child and be a light in their lives . I love art, crafts, playing outside and being active with the kids! Painting, Gardening, Animals and anything outside

Kristen was absolutely wonderful and intuitive to what our kids and pets alike needed/wanted, during her stay. She was on-time (early), prepared, and even brought some toys for the dogs. During her stay, she instantly won the love and trust of both the kids and pets. Kristen has been the only stranger that our husky has met who was able to immediately earn her trust (dogs know!). Kristen was absolutely phenomenal with our autistic son, and paid him the "extra" attention he needed. My kids now consistently ask us when "Auntie K" is coming over to play with them next. The honest answer: is whenever we require a sitter, moving forward. We will absolutely continue to reach out to Kristen anytime we need a sitter, and I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing a reliable, respectful, kind, professional sitter!

I enjoy time with kids so much, specially with little ones. I speak Spanish, English and basic French. Also, I am an outdoor person and I really love arts, specially singing! I used to be an AuPair in Beaverton for 1 year and 7 months. I watched three kids: a 10 months-old, a 3.5 years-old and a 5.5 years-old. I was in charge of waking them up, preparing meals, make sure they brush their teeth, preparing baby’s bottle, changing diapers, dropping off and picking up the older ones to school, takings them to the park to play, setting playdates with friends, to the library, potty training, teaching the little one to speak (I used to speak to him Spanish and he understood very well!) and to walk. It was an amazing experience! I left and dedicated myself to my career (I got a bachelors degree in Mass communication) around the world: Mexico, Venezuela and Spain. I just came back to the US and my previous host family received me to stay while I set everything up here. The younger kid is now 7 years-old! Before coming to Beaverton I spent a month in Chicago, since my sister lives there and I took care of 2 siblings: a 3 years old girl and a 8 years old boy. I can give you references and my resume. I’m currently taking care of two 11 months-old in a full-time nanny-share situation. I’m available on weekends and evenings for date nights!

Ariana was fantastic. She’s got great energy and my kids didn’t even say goodbye when I left; they were too busy playing with Ariana already ? The kids are excited to have her come back. She handled everything well- from playing to handling typical sibling conflicts to a never ending tuck-in.
Lhamo C.

Hi there! My name is Lhamo, and I am a nanny with over 25 years of experience caring for children, especially infants and toddlers, with many references available. I live in the SE Woodstock neighborhood of Portland and have worked with more than 10 families over the years. I am also a mother of three whom I raised while working as a nanny. My oldest son is 28 and recently graduated from NYU graduate school, my 22-year-old son transferred from the U.S. Naval Academy and now attends Oregon State University’s Honors College, and my youngest daughter is 17 and in her senior year of high school. I’ve always wanted to pursue teaching, and being a nanny has allowed me to do that in my own way. I enjoy reading with children, playing, taking them outside and to the neighborhood park, and helping them develop their language, communication, and social skills. I speak Mandarin Chinese and Tibetan fluently and studied economics in college. I especially enjoy watching children learn, become more independent, and develop their own personalities as they grow. Having raised three children of my own and cared for many others, I’ve learned a lot about the different stages children and families go through. I enjoy building a good relationship with parents, sharing my experience when it is helpful, and working together on routines, behavior, communication, and their child’s overall growth and development. I believe open communication between parents and caregivers makes a big difference. I am also happy to help with light cleaning and folding laundry. My preferred schedule is around 8:00/8:30 AM to 3:30/4:00 PM. I’ve found that this works best for my family at home while also giving the children I care for a good daily balance of learning, playing, outdoor time, meals, and naps. After more than 25 years, I continue being a nanny because I genuinely enjoy caring for children, teaching them, watching them grow, and becoming close with the families I work with. It has been a very meaningful part of my life.

Lhamo has been our nanny for the last 4 years and we love having her. She is very good with both kids and especially good with babies and toddlers. She is very creative in her play with the children, having them use their imaginations. She is very kind and nurturing and the children love her. She focuses on them, playing with them at the park. feeding them healthy snacks and making sure they keep their routines. Lhamo also loves being outdoors and takes the kids outside every day, rain or shine. She helped us immensely over the years, helping us with sleep schedules, creating routines and even potty training. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, I would say Lhamo has met that criteria. We would highly recommend Lhamo for your family.

Providing a warm and caring environment for your family is my goal, and I'm looking for my next family to connect with! The children I've been caring for since October are starting school in September and my time with them will be ending. I am available for part-time, temporary, and date night/one time jobs from September through mid-November. Experience includes working as an English Assistant at a primary school in Spain, coaching gymnastics to children ages 3-12 at Oregon Gymnastics Academy, and over five years of private childcare for kids ages 4 months-11 years. I have a musical background and enjoy musical activities, crafts, reading, and being outside with children. I'm also comfortable with tutoring/schoolwork assistance, pets, cleaning, meal prep, and transportation. References are available. Please let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to hear from you!

Missy is amazing! She was with our family since our son was born and cared for him and our 2 year old daughter. For 2+ years she brought love and care to all of us and is just a wonderful person. She will be a part of our family forever and we are eternally grateful she was able to come into our lives and care for our children.

Hello! I am an experienced child care provider. I have 7 younger siblings that I have watched on my own since I was 13. My mom has also ran a daycare that I have helped with. But on top of that I have worked in a preschool for 3 years as a teacher, and done lots of caregiving for the elderly and other children!

Maddi provided VIP care for our son for more than a year. She ran an incredible playgroup with another family in SE where the kids learned how to play well together, how to share, how to be good communicators and how to be good people. We attribute so many of Hank's kind traits to Maddi. We also loved how easy it was to communicate with her and how easy it was so add or change days if we needed to. When a second baby joined our family, she jumped right in and was super attentive and sweet with our little girl. Thank you for everything, Maddi!
