Hello parents! I would love to take care of your kiddos. I have extensive babysitting experience, from newborns all the way to teenagers. I want to help as much as I can, doing laundry chores, restocking goods, etc. I will plan activities to do with the kids and help them with learning abc’s 123’s, please and thank you, and most of all have fun either way them. I am lifeguard and cpr certifies, as well as swim instructor certified for newborns all the up. I love sports too and would be willing to help coach and give lessons for whatever the parents desires. I’m am currently going to school to become a nurse, and my goal is to work in the nursery and help deliver babies.

Hi, my name is Kimberley and I recently relocated to Astoria from Portland, after a decades long Montessori and in-home care career. My schedule will be opening up fully at the beginning of July. I'm here for the fresh air, slower way of life, and community. I'm hoping to match with families that value outdoor time, developmentally appropriate activities, and anybody looking for somebody that has strong experience with neurodivergence and general brain development, especially in the context of LGBTQ+ families. That being said, I am open to many contexts! I love to support parents in finding space for themselves, as much as I love to support children's growth and happiness. I tend to bring enthusiastic yet calm vibes, and daily consistency for young ones.

I’ve been babysitting since my freshman year of high school and I just finished my freshman year of college. This past school year I nannied for two families. I have taken care of kids ages 18 months to about 9 years old. Child care is my passion and I hope to one day own my own preschool/daycare or at least have a career that involves working with kids.

Hi everyone! I’m a current psychology undergraduate at Lewis and Clark college! I’m entering my senior year and will be graduating in May of 2025! My primary experience is working with infants and toddlers, especially multiples! I’ve grown up around kids all my life as my family owns a Montessori school in Minnesota! I have an immense passion for child development and nannying feels like more of a hobby rather than a job for me. My philosophy when it comes to childcare centers around providing a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for children to grow and learn in. Outside of school and work, I am an avid rock climber and love being outside more than anything.
