Hello! My name is Raina (she/her). My approach to childcare is lighthearted and fun. I enjoy finding creative ways to engage with children and encourage their growth. I am very responsible and know how to recognize emergencies. I have had many different experiences giving me an eclectic background, which has enriched me as a person. I have gained diverse professional experience in public health and community engagement. Currently, as an intern at the Joint Office of Homeless Services, I evaluate alternative shelter models for individuals experiencing homelessness while contributing to data collection and research resource enhancement. I am also currently a nanny for one girl whom I have been with for the past 6 years where I have been responsible for offering age-appropriate activities, behavioral modeling, health guidance, transportation to and from school and after-school activities, as well as academic support. Additionally, I have served as a Grader at Portland Read more State University, provided food equity community research as an intern with the Portland Fruit Tree Project, and engaged in community outreach initiatives at PDX Alliance For Self-Care. My educational background includes a Summa Cum Laude B.S. in Public Health from Portland State University and ongoing pursuit of an MPH in Health Promotion at Oregon Health and Science University, further enhancing my qualifications in the field. I would love to further my experience and provide positive and engaging care for your child while I finish up my degree. I look forward to meeting you.
