Hi! My name is Meg, I am a 24-year-old graduate student at PSU working on a double masters in Education and Counseling. I have a BA in education, and many years experience working with children and youth of all ages! I have worked for several elementary schools, summer camps, and youth outreach programs. My past experiences include working as a substitute kindergarten and pre-school teacher, running a before-an-after school program, teaching environmental education, and being a youth advocate at domestic violence shelter.

In particular, I am passionate about the arts and outdoor education. I love music, dancing, exploring, crafting, cooking, playing outside, making stuff. I have worked as a professional house keeper and would be happy to take on some cleaning and cooking tasks as well. I have current CPR/First Aid certifications, a clean driving record, and a smooth running, kid-friendly mini van.

I am currently taking some time off from school, and work staff relief for a teen crisis intervention program. Being that I work on-call, I have a very open, flexible schedule. Early mornings, late nights, and weekends are all great for me.I am looking for a regular nanny position or some date-night babysitting gigs- I would love to meet families for either.

Please contact me for a resume, references, and more information!

Thanks!

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

Montessori Children's House offers both  Toddler and Primary Montessori programs.  We are located in a dynamic and diverse new neighborhood, the South Waterfront, adjacent to a lovely park with good facilities, plus the Willamette River Greenway and a lot of other neighborhood amenities.  In the last couple of years, the neighborhood has attracted a number of young families with children, although our families come from a variety of other areas as well.

Hello!

Even though summer's just upon us, we also know it's never too soon to think about fall!
