Best way to find infant care options in/near SE?
January 27, 2013
Hi UrbanMamas!
We moved to Portland recently for my husband's job, and there must be something in the water, because we're already expecting our first child - a baby boy - in June 2013!
As per instructions from almost everyone I know, we're already starting to look into infant care options for when I go back to work full time in September 2013. We've gotten a few recommendations from my still measly social networks here but mainly we're relying on internet research which seems to be turning up the same few options: ChildRoots, Creative Minds, Grandma's Place, Belmont Academy, CCLC, the OHSU CCLC (we're looking in/near SE). Or find a nanny.
I figure this can't be all that's out there or 90% of the babies in SE Portland wouldn't have a place to go. My prenatal yoga instructor says many places just don't have websites. Does anyone have ideas - specific places or lists of places? A nanny or nanny share would also be an option. I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule, so I don't necessarily need a full-time, 9-6 deal. On the other hand I've been told not to expect to get any work done if I'm home with the baby, even if there's a nanny there too. And I do travel for work from time to time, and my husband has VERY long and VERY inflexible hours (he's a resident at OHSU).
Would love to hear from anyone with experience or ideas! Places you or your friends have sent your babies, lists you've received, other networks you think I should tap into? Mamas who work from home, any creative ways you've made it work? Nanny+coworking space? Would love to hear any and all input!
Thanks SO much,
Beth Stucky (bethstucky1@gmail.com) - that's a number 1 in my email address

~Terrific Part Time/ Full Time Nanny Open at the end of the Month!~
January 06, 2013
GREAT NANNY, JUST FOR YOU!
Hi Everyone,
My name is Jillian M. Currently I am looking for a new position as a Nanny. I was involved in a Nanny-share for almost the duration of the year but as the contract term ended and the children turned 1 they were placed in Montessori. I am comfortable doing either another nanny-share, or working for one family. I am comfortable working with up to 3 infants, depending on their ages, 4 toddlers, or 5 children in total but this would really depend on the overall dynamic of the situation. I am also comfortable doing care in your home, or mine. Ideally the position would provide at least 36 hours a week, but this is also flexable as I explore my options.
Here's a little information about me. I have an immense amount of experience with children. I started my babysitting career at 12 years old, after I received my Oregon babysitters training, and CPR certification. Since then, I have had experience in taking care of about 25 different children, usually two or more at a time (five max), in in-home settings. My experience with children ranges from newborns to 13-year-olds. About half of my clientele has been parents of children diagnosed with Autism. I have also worked and volunteered with a school that caters to meeting the needs of children diagnosed with Autism . My tasks at the school included building a summer reading program for some of the more advanced students. I directed the students during "signing times" videos (videos that teach the children sign language). I did teacher aide duties in the classrooms working extensively with the pre-schoolers, and in the occupational therapy room. In addition to this experience, I was also a camp counselor in high-school at Camp Howard outdoor school for 2 seasons.
I love to do activities with children. I am not the type of care provider who will sit children in front of the TV and do my own thing. Just to be clear, I rather children have no screen time during my time with them. I prefer for children to have fun. If the parent permits, I like to take them on outings to the park, or maybe a day to the zoo, children's museum, library, or swimming pool depending on the child's interest. I love doing art projects, or fun cooking activities, playing board games, and will even happily partake in dress up or tea parties. As well as making sure the children enjoy the time we spend together, I firmly believe in education. I like to come up with developmentally appropriate activities that stimulate the intellectual growth of each child. For school aged children I come in great handy for help with homework.
I am a student and am working towards a degree in early childhood education. I take courses through the local community college's online program, when I transfer next year I will continue primarily with online education. I am familiar with many learning/parenting styles includingMontessori, Waldorf, Attachment Parenting, and Positive Redirection. What I am unfamiliar with, I am willing to learn. My time spent with your children is based on your needs, their needs, and your parenting beliefs. I am very flexiable when it comes to this as I understand it is your child and I enjoy learning new styles.
I have a license, car insurance, and a car for transporting needs. In addition, I know basic Spanish, and am furthering my skills incase you are interested in your child learning a second language.
I would ideally like a position that offers at least a 1 year contract.
Best,
Jillian

Affordable Portuguese immersion in home childcare: NOW ENROLLING!!
December 27, 2012
Hello, my name is Karla Normington. I am from Brasil
and live in Portland since June, 2007. In the past I
have worked as an assistant in a daycare and Nanny. I have great references.
These responsibilities included:
* Supervision of infants, toddlers, and school age children
* Planning and implementing creative activities
* Setting up play dates
* Driving children to and from school and other activities
* Providing a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment
* Attending to physical and emotional needs of children
* Helping children with daily routines such as toileting, dressing, eating,
bathing and sleeping
*Cooking healthy Brazilian/American
meals
After working for years as a Nanny I decided to open my in home day care that
will be running for me . The day care will offer full- and part-time
enrollment. . We are a full Portuguese immersion program. All meals and snacks
will be included (I
will provide healthy made from scratch
food for
the children everyday), as well a detailed
curriculum outlines each week, periodic assessment of your child's development
and photos to document your child's
experiences away from home. The
environment is safe, clean, friendly, and inviting!
There is a large indoor and outdoor play area full of toys to increase their
thinking skills.
The toys I have are all educational crafts, puzzles, books, games, toys, etc.
So even as the kids are playing, they are learning.
My goal is to provide a loving, happy, educational
and safe environment for children. I strive to enrich each child with a
love of learning, positive self-image, and a sense of creativity and imagination.
I hope to create a nurturing environment to promote creativity! I
try to recognize teachable moments throughout a daily schedule. I incorporate
music, art, and stories in a daily routine! The first language
spoken in our day care is Portuguese. We will bring and teach Brazilian culture without losing the American. Our goal is to teach
both cultures showing the differences/commonalities between the two Countries. My Mom is a Portuguese teacher in Brasil and she is sending me a
lot of materials so I can use here with the kids.
Our programs balance child-initiated and
activities, nutritious meals, snacks, rest time and outdoor/indoor play.
Our Philosophy:
We believe:
Children are
competent, capable and have unlimited potential;
Children benefit from
both routine and spontaneity, self-initiated play and teacher planned
activities;
Children construct
their own understanding of concepts, based on their world as well as
interactions with adults;
Children need
opportunities to make meaningful choices within clear boundaries;
Children grow though
collaboration, community and being treated as individuals with strengths
interests and needs.
Our process:
Creativity;
Self-Expression;
Hands on activities;
Sensory Oriented
activities.
Our Environment:
Space are designed for
children’s needs;
Highest standards of
cleanliness and safety;
Soft spaces and warm
atmosphere
We feature:
Art/Music
Language development
Multicultural activities
Field trips
Contact with nature
Body exercise
Portuguese language instruction
A year-round, all-weather outdoor play area- ·
Flexible and affordable full-day schedules - ·
Nutritious meals and snacks

Little Hands Garden School has one opening in January
December 17, 2012
Little Hands Garden School has been called “The best-kept secret in Mt. Tabor,” by the Portland Mercury (Finder Magazine, 2011). We are an eco-healthy, home-based program with two to three teachers and 10 students per day. Our hours are 9-1, M-Th.
We are a play-based preschool supporting children’s right to play and
acknowledging play is the primary way through which children learn.
We believe all curriculum needs to be inquiry-based, and modeled upon
the interests of our students. Our schedule changes daily as we sometimes get so involved in our projects we forget the time...... which is kind of the goal, really. We draw from many pedagogical ideologies but are primarily focused on the Reggio
Emilia model of inspiring the child’s innate creativity. At our
school children are free to play, to be outside with the chickens, bunnies, or in the garden, free to run, shout, sing, dance, dress up, hug, read, rest, paint, glue, glitter, explore, dig, build, hang from a trapeze, get dirty, and make messes. This is above all a place for children to be free to explore the world as they wish.
Lunch and one to two primarily organic snacks, straight from our
garden when available, are provided daily. Our activities include singing, music, drama, reading, storytelling, puppetry, art, gardening, outdoor play, dance, yoga, games, baking, and plenty of time for dramatic play exploration. We also do field trips on Mt. Tabor and to neighborhood parks. We are outside all day when the
weather permits. In the winter when the weather is not so permitting,
we get serious about the drama aspect of our curriculum and create
sets, make props, practice lines, and re-enact plays of the children’s
choosing. Our favorite plays last winter were the 3 Little Pigs,
Little Red Riding Hood, and Abiyoyo. Video of these plays can be seen
on our youtube.com page. Search LHGardenSchool in youtube or use the
following link:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8A06DF8CDB30DB6D
Little Hands Garden School is a state registered preschool and
Eco-healthy certified through the Oregon Environmental Council.
http://www.oeconline.org/our-work/healthier-lives/ehcc/index_html
Tuition is as follows, paid monthly:
1 day/wk $160
2 days/wk $320
3 days/wk $480
4 days/wk $600
We accept children ages 3-5. We look for a long-term commitment when
we welcome a new family, as we form a special relationship with each
child and don't like to say goodbye until Kindergarten.

Childcare Swap or Nanny Share
September 10, 2012
Hi! I am a substitute teacher with a 2 ½ year old and another one due in December. I am hoping to find someone who would be interested in either swapping childcare 2-3 days out of the week or who would be interested in doing a nanny share throughout the school year.
I am reliable, easy going, and being a teacher has given me tons of training and ability to work with kids, so watching your child or two would come pretty natural. My son is also very easy going, potty trained, and is a joy to be around:) If you already have a nanny and would be interested in adding my son and later on, our new little one (probably end of Jan) to the mix that would work for us too. If you are a nanny and are looking for some part-time/on-call work, that could also be a possibility.
Since I am lucky enough to get most of my jobs ahead of time (usually at least a couple days in advance) there wouldn’t be many weeks that weren’t planned out. I am flexible and open to lots of ideas, so if you have any questions or maybe you think it might work but aren’t sure, please don’t hesitate to email or call.
If any of this sounds like something that might work for you let me know and maybe we can work something out!
Thanks! Kristina

What our families have to say about us:
"I'm writing this email to thank Brigit's teachers for being so sweet to her while she attended Grandma's place, particularly, Stephanie. She still talks about her everyday and says how much she loves her and frequently carries the card around that she made her. Today she yelled at her dad with the card in her hand "don't ever throw this away, it would make me cry, Stephanie is the best and she made this for me!" and I just about cried! I had a rough time in every childcare center my mom put me in growing up and to know Brigit was so happy when I was away from her makes me feel so good. We will be going to Europe for the summer! And before I started preparing for that, I wanted to be sure to thank you all. Thanks again to everyone for your kindness to my little one, she's had such good (and hilarious) things to say about her experience and grandma's place!"
"I am SO happy with the care and attention my child receives at your facility that I am willing to commute out of my way to get her there, even though there is a daycare across the street from our apartment. Keep up the spectacular work!"
"It's very close to my house, and when I came for a tour, I was pleased to hear about the educational focus--it's not just babysitting, but my child will learn all kinds of skills--social and academic. I also liked that the director was willing to spend so much time showing me around and answering my questions during my tour."

At Learn & Grow we strive to create an environment for your children that is both loving and engaging, with developmentally appropriate activities for each child in our care.
We are also registered with the state of Oregon as a home daycare provider, meeting all the safety, health, and nutritional standards set forth by the state. We have completed training in CPR, first aid, and child abuse, and are current in the Oregon criminal history registry.
What makes me unique? I am a state certified teacher. I offer arts and crafts daily, take the children outside for play almost every day, and focus on play that will create opportunities for learning in motor skills, imaginative play, pre-literacy, numbers and patterns, and social skills.
My husband, John, who has a degree in human development and family studies, helps me several days a week. We strive to meet your child’s needs with compassionate care and individual attention.
Please call us with any questions or to schedule a visit to our home!
