Hi! I'm a caring and dependable childcare provider with 3 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to elementary school-aged kids. I currently work at a daycare in a local gym, where I create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for children every day. I also do want to mention, I am currently pregnant.I'm experienced in caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I enjoy supporting their growth through play, learning, and age-appropriate activities. I understand the importance of patience, communication, and building trust with both children and parents.

Hi families! I am a Certified Professional Nanny and Newborn Care Specialist with over 18 years of experience. I am looking for the right fit with a family, and my expertise is with babies, so I naturally gravitate toward roles that involve infant care. I thrive in nurturing and supporting little ones during their earliest stages and would love to find a family that aligns with my skills and experience.

Hello! I’m Emaline Aney, I’m 19 years old and a rising sophomore at Lewis and Clark College! I am CPR and first-aid certified, a former swim instructor and current summer camp counselor for a day camp. I’m looking for some extra work and would love to provide babysitting for folks in the area! I have experience with all age ranges, but feel more comfortable with kids ages 5+. I am very creative, and have lots of experience doing crafts/art with kids. I can also cook and bake pretty well, if interested! My going rate for that age range is 16$ an hour for one kid and 18$ for two. Prices open to change depending on circumstances. Please consider me the next time you need a babysitter!

My name is Mikaela, and I recently moved to Portland for grad school! I’m hoping to start making some extra money and wanted to advertise myself as a Nanny/Caregiver/Babysitter. My experience: I worked in ABA as a behavioral tech for children with autism for the last 4+ years, primarily working with kids age 3-8. Prior to that, I worked as a Camp Counselor for 3 years, working with 5-12-year-old kids, and I also worked at a middle school after-school care program for a few years with kids primarily aged 12-14. I am CPR and First Aid certified (can provide proof if needed) and have a clean driving record (and a reliable, safe car!) I was also a writing tutor at my university in undergrad, so I can help with some homework!
