We are looking for a part-time nanny for our 2.5 years old son.  We are looking for 1-2 days/week, ~9 hours/day.  We have some flexibility on which days of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed or Thu).   We live in the Arbor Lodge/Overlook North Portland area. 

We have been with our current nanny for almost 2 years, and it’s been a wonderful experience.  She is now graduating and moving on, so we are looking for someone new to help lovingly care for our son.

We are looking for a reliable, fun, loving and caring person who will provide different fun and stimulating activities for Liam.  Whether it’s a walk around the block, reading books, doing art projects, going to the park, going to OMSI or the zoo, etc., we want Liam to learn and explore the world in all sorts of ways. We believe in little to no television.  We would expect light housekeeping (putting dishes in dishwasher after meals and straightening up after a day of fun) so that you can focus your energy on engaging with Liam.  We are looking for a long term partnership based on open communication, trust  and Liam’s well-being. 

If you are interested, please contact us at gagnonme@gmail.com.

 

 

Trillium Preschool will be hosting an open house for returning and prospective families!

Peninsula Children's Center is excited to announce a new partnership with Mr. Ben! He'll be providing weekly music lessons in our classrooms on Fridays, and we couldn't be more excited about adding a formal music component to our program.

Another exciting new enhancement to our facility is our freshly installed preschool playground climbing wall, funded by a grant from the Nike Employee Fund of the Oregon Community Foundation and the Portland Development Commission's Interstate Corridor Urban Renewal Area Community Livability program.

As part of our ongoing relationship with Multnomah County Library and the Raising a Reader program we have a new Library Volunteer Chris “Cricket” who reads stories to the Junior and Preschool children every month as an auxillary to our existing literacy efforts in the classroom.  Chris is a retired kindergarten teacher certified in special education with a masters degree in Reading and Literacy, so she has lots to offer! 

All these exciting new developments, and our amazing $600 tuition credit for families who enroll in the month of February make now the perfect time to contact Peninsula for a tour. 

As one of our newly enrolling families said,

"Today was just the first moment I really began to feel that I would move my daughter away from her current preschool, which we really, really love. But we were just so, so impressed with Peninsula. As a teacher and as a parent, I'm just really impressed by the thoughtfulness and professionalism that's evident on your website and in person. I think our children will love being at your center."

We have openings now for children ages 12 months - 5 years old!

Please visit our website at www.penchild.org for more information and/or contact Natalie at (503) 280-0534, ext. 33 or natalie@penchild.org. She would love to talk with you today about our program and how we can fit your family’s needs. We look forward to hearing from you!

I am thinking about registering my 7 month old and 3.5 year old here but have not heard much about it. The space inside and play areas outside seem great, the location and hours are super convienient and it is reasonably priced. I did not get to meet all of the teachers but the owner seems smart and good with kids. I've been scrambling to line up full time childcare and it is one of the few places with openings so of course I wonder if there is a reason for that? Would love to hear experiences from other parents!

Tanja G White

AuPairCare Area Director, Portland Area

Experienced childcare provider looking for a position. Would prefer full-time but willing to consider part-time positions or on-call as well. I have multiple years of experience (total of 10 years childcare experience) working with children ages 0-8. Great families for you to contact that can attest to my ability to be on-time and engaging with children of any age.

I am familiar with RIE, Reggio, well-versed in Montessori learning style as well as a bit of knowledge in attachment parenting. Comfortable with cloth diapers (assisting with diaper laundry and children's laundry as well) and feeding expressed milk as well.

I'm cpr/first aid certified, have taken the RRCAN class, am in the process of completing my food handlers certification, and am enrolled in Oregon Criminal History Registry # (for working in a childcare center). Previously background checked through DHS for 3 years, open to having background check run as well as having two through reputable childcare sites (sittercity.com and care.com). Non-smoker, valid license/insurance and reliable vehicle for transportation (5 seat car, 2 car seats or boosters and room for one older child. I may possibly be able to squeeze 2 car seats and 1 booster in back, depending on width!)

Engaging and active; I do multiple activities with children from sensory play (shaving cream, paint, play dough, etc.) to arts and crafts with older children. Familiar with assisting in school-aged learning, assisting with writing/reading, spelling, abc's, 123's, colors, shapes, etc. Primary focus working with children ages 0-6.

I can and will take your children on outings if you would like, am able to assist with errand running/shopping if necessary as well as light household chores (dishes unloaded or loaded, light sweeping, child laundry/room cleanup, etc.). I love going to the park even if it's wet, and love to puddle jump! For outings I do ask you provide the payment for admission fees, etc. 

Available Mon-Fri any time. I do offer weekend sitting but usually reserve it for date-night occasional sitting for families.

If you're interested, please feel free to email me with all pertinent information such as: your care needs (frequency, total hours, daily schedule if varied), a bit about your family/children (names/ages/a bit about them) and what you are expecting to pay.

My hourly rate for locations within 15 miles of my home is $11.50 per hour, for 2 children. Locations further from my home or with additional children are subject to increased fees, etc. I base my price on your needs, family size, as well as location and am slightly flexible with families that can provide me with stability as I can for them. :)

For inquiry/interest please email educatoralicia@gmail.com or call (971)-217-8414. If I do not answer please leave a message; I have a very active 6 year-old with high-functioning Autism and he can be quite demanding of my time. :)

Thanks!

My daughter started attending Aprende Con Amigos this August and she absolutely loves it. She's goes 2 half days and I am always amazed at how much Spanish she's already picked up. My partner and I chose the Aprende for it's location and affordability, and of course the Spanish immersion - and we're so glad we did. Stacey (the director) has developed a great program that, for us, is turning out to be very successful. Reggio Emilia is the learning philosophy. M-F 8-5pm or half days. Contact Stacey for more information.
