Hello, My name is Alexandra, I’m 51 a semi retired masters level social worker. I have about 30+ years of experience. focused jobs and be able to work with kids in a more organic way. I am known to be silly, conscientious, reliable and very compassionate. I truly enjoy being with kids of all ages and find it meaningful to help them experience the world in thoughtful, creative, playful and secure ways. I try to make things seem like an adventure and address conflicts as opportunities for growth. I am also very good with infants and have experience with sleep training. I see my job as being both a coach and a mama bear. If anything does arise I am extremely well trained, calm and focused in an emergency. I’ve been CPR and First Aid trained for over 30 years. As a parent and family social worker I have learned many effective behavior management techniques for kids ages birth to 100. I believe it's extremely important to provide each family the specific care they want and to honor the norms, needs and values of the household.The most important thing to know about me as a childcare provider is that I will take care of your children, pets and household the way you want me to. I believe taking responsibility for the well-being of any child means you always put them first. Choosing the right person to care for your child and trust them in your home is the most important decisions a person can make. I welcome any and all kinds of questions or requests and can make myself available for online interviews at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Alexandra Sagov MSW

Hello! I am an experienced caregiver who has participated in childcare for over 22 years as a nanny, babysitter, and in center based environments. I have experience with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged kiddos; I have cared for children up to age 16. I have done numerous overnights for families, so I have experience with that! I put emphasis on learning through play, and, being a nature lover, try to find ways to incorporate nature in our activities. When with your child, we can sing, read, dance, do art projects, listen to music, go for walks, and take field trips to farms, the museum, playgrounds, and other fun places. I have taken child development classes, so I am pretty aware of where kids are developmentally. Respecting others is important to me, so I try to find teachable moments to convey this. I am first aid/CPR certified. I have reliable transportation, and consider myself to be very reliable as well. I am looking to work in Portland, or within 25 miles of it. I am also fully vaccinated and boosted.

We hired Jada to babysit our two-year-old daughter while we were in Portland for a family vacation. This was our first time using SitterCity to find a sitter away from home, and we were a bit nervous. Jada was fantastic and made us feel totally comfortable going out for a date. She was clearly very experienced and established a good rapport with our daughter very quickly. We will definitely reach out to Jada again next time we’re visiting Portland!

I love spending time with children because they bring so much innocence, wonder and curiosity to the world. I enjoy slowing down, being present, and encouraging creativity through art, music, crafts, pretend play and time outdoors. I believe childhood is a time to explore, learn, and feel safe, and I strive to create an environment where kids can do just that. I have over 13 years of experience caring for children of all ages through babysitting and professional caregiving. I also worked as a pediatric CNA, where I cared for children with special needs. That experience strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each child's unique needs. I am CPR certified and take safety seriously while making sure children have fun, stay engaged, and feel supported. I believe that one of my greatest strengths is how deeply I care for others- I bring that same compassion to every family I work with. Outside of childcare I consider myself an artist who loves music, community, learning new things, and spending time outdoors no matter the season. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy building lasting, trusting relationships with the families I work for. My goal is to be a dependable caring presence that both children and parents can feel comfortable with.

With going on 4 + years of experience, I think it’s safe to say that I love spending time with kids. I’m here to provide them with a safe and fun caregiver so you guys can go out and get things done! Kids are so silly and I love learning all about their individual personalities. I’ve done childcare in almost all aspects, I coached gymnastics for 3 years, was a camp counselor, preschool substitute teacher, and as of more recently I am a nanny for a lovely family. I love keeping busy and having my schedule filled which is why I’ve come on here to find some more families to connect with! I am CPR certified and have taken a multitude of childhood education coursework and certification classes which I would be happy to provide you with! Again, I’m here to make you feel comfortable and to provide your kids with a safe and happy environment. Let me know if you think that I would fit the job and I would be more than happy to connect with you about this position! Thank you.

I've been a professional nanny for the past 32 years. I enjoyed traveling to Paris and Bermuda in my earlier years as a nanny. My longest position was 10 years with one family. I enjoy working with children and being a part of their growth and development. My current families needs are changing, so I am looking forward to finding a new family to care for. I will miss my current family, though we will stay in touch! They are like family to us. I have worked for many professional families over the years, as well as a local nanny agency. I have a preliminary background check available upon request. I have excellent references!

Hi! Do you need a nanny who is experienced with infants? Do you want peace of mind with your first child? I’d love to help. For starters, I can babywear, purée food, handle washing cloth diapers, take stroller walks, read books, sing lullabies, and rock to sleep. I believe play-based learning helps children develop crucial skills, and keeps them active and inquisitive. If you want a crunchy/ granola nanny, let’s chat. Additional details : I just renewed my CPR first aid certificate. I am currently vaccinated. I have my own transportation and I love animals! I’m available starting January 2026
