Find experienced nannies in Portland, OR

Hi! My name is Caitlin and I am very interested in being your nanny! I have about 7 years of nanny experience, 3 boys ranging from 3 months to 8 years old, two sets of infant twins, and twins with an older sibling. I also come from a family of teachers and know the importance of fun filled learning activities at a young age. I am 29 years old am hoping to finish a Geography degree in the next few years. When I do return to school, I plan on taking night classes so I can be available full time during the day. I love cooking healthy meals and would much rather have a picnic outside than eat in front of a TV. I currently am working with a family of twin 2 year olds and a 4 year old, and they will soon no longer need childcare. My start date is flexible as well. I am looking forward to the opportunity to help your child grow and learn while having fun!

Hi! I’m Megan and I love working with kids! I’ve worked as a camp counselor/teacher with Adventures in Writing for four years, a Lead Teacher with the YMCA for two, and a lead teacher for Innovation Learning for two years. I moved from Ashland, where I was a toddler teacher for two years. After moving from Ashland I became a Lead a Toddler Teacher at an in home daycare for over a year before getting the opportunity to become a Toddler Guide at a Montessori School. I love doing crafts with kids and helping them figure out what they love to do! I am CPR/First Aid certified and can help with potty training!

I have been a nanny/babysitter for as long as I can remember! I absolutely love kids and teaching them fun new things and sports! Other then nannying I have coached volleyball for the past 8 years anywhere from 6th grade to High School Varsity. I have my bachelors degree in Psychology with a specialization in child development and after that plans of getting a Master in mental health counseling for school aged kids! I have extensive infant/toddler/kid experience as it has been my job for the past few years! I have done things from “shorter" jobs such as date nights and giving rides to places, all the way up to overnights where I spent the entire week with three boys while their parents were out of the country. My past experiences make me very versatile so I am open to anything that you might need help with from young kiddos needing bottle feeding, sleep training, food transitioning, potty training, etc. And for older kids I’m happy to give homework help, create and implement structured days, prepare meals, and clean up. A couple random things I honestly love are running errands/grocery shopping and doing laundry. I understand life is unpredictable so I’m happy to provide sick care! The most kids I've watched at once not including playdates was 4 at a time and it was a blast. I would say that I am a very flexible and understanding person and am always happy to to grow and change with your family’s needs. I think it's very important to build a good relationship with the kid(s) and parent(s) so it's a nice experience for everyone. I love getting outside and playing and even going on day trips to explore! I am fully vaccinated and have my own car (with 7 seats) including two toddler car seats and a clean driving record! I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos!

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 currently live in the Woodstock neighborhood, in Portland, OR, and I've raised three kids on my own (ages 25 at NYU Grad School, 19 at the U.S. Naval Academy, and 15 years old at an immersion high school), all of whom I also used to take to work with me, and this ultimately has developed them into the mature and intelligent individuals they are today, teaching all of us important lessons. Over the years, I've worked with over 10 families with a wide variety of different ages, though I'm especially experienced in working with toddlers and infants. When working with kids, I love taking them outside to the park and staying active, providing fun activities for them. Though, my specialty is now more focused in the cognitive development and education of young children, ranging from developing social skills to language learning of languages such as Mandarin Chinese, which I went to university for along with economics. Furthermore, in addition to working with kids, I am able to help with light cleaning, folding laundry. On top of loving to nurture the growth of young children that I work with, and fostering close relationships with the kids, I’ve also found an interest in assisting young and coming parents with learning the necessary parenting skills, helping them by sharing my experiences, creating a more effective and close team between us. All of this has been the most enjoyable part of my journey so far and why I continue doing what I do as a caretaker.

I'm Carmen, and since I was a child, I've loved interacting with children of all ages, from babies to teenagers. I love seeing how they learn, how they observe, and how they develop their skills.I've learned to be patient and understand how each child is different, how they express their needs, and how they learn. I've taken courses on positive discipline and assertive communication. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages, and always providing structure in their activities and giving them time to play, learn, play sports, and discover their interests together is something I love and makes me give my best. Being part of children's growth is truly exciting to me, and I have a deep calling to contribute and support their development during this important stage.

Hello Families! My name is Maya and I am so excited to meet you! I recently graduated from the University of Oregon with my degree in Family & Human Services and it is so nice to be home!

My passion is to bring joy, laughter, and new experiences to children while also teaching, guiding, and helping navigate the big feelings that all children experience and one time or another. Playing, interacting, and listen are just a few of the major building blocks it takes to help our children grow up into intelligent and in touch human beings. I have the following certification up to date and able to provide upon request: - Infant/Child/Adult CPS/AED/First Aid Certification - Food Handlers License -Registered within the Central Background Registry I look forward to hearing from you and can’t wait to meet your little one!

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!

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
