Hello! I am Elizabeth. For the past 5 years I have been a childcare associate with the Portland YMCA. I have been working in childcare based positions for 9 years including, child-care centers, nannying, and date night babysitting jobs. I love to be a positive and supportive caregiver that provides a safe, comfortable and stimulating environment for any child. I am really laid back and love to play and be silly. I think that it is most important during childhood to inspire children to explore and develop into kind, respectful, and loving people. I love spending time exploring the arts through crafts, music, reading, and playing pretend. I also am a big advocate of outdoor and active time. Being an interactive caregiver is important to me and I find myself enjoying my play time as much as the children I care for. I am also mom to a very social Read more and precocious 2.5 year old boy. He has always been with me at work and loves having new friends of all ages. Being a mom has only made my passion for child care stronger. I have always loved caring for children and having fun and being silly while providing a safe and nurturing environment. I live in the Portland area and would like to nanny in the Greater Portland area. I have 3/4 of a Bachelors degree in early childhood education completed. I plan on finishing when my son goes to school because I am loving my time with him during these toddler years. I am CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. I have also completed multiple trainings with Appelbaum Training Institute for early childhood. Beyond all the trainings, I truly enjoy my time spent with the children I care for and I love to keep my son involved with other children of all ages because children learn best through playing with their peers. If you are looking for someone who will care for your children like their own please reach out to me. I'd love to talk with you more and see if I am a good fit for your family. Elizabeth
