Seeking feedback on Village Childcare on North Michigan Ave

February 09, 2012

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!

Nanny wanted for 5 month old in NW

November 20, 2011

We are first time parents looking for a nanny Monday through Friday from approximately 8am to 3pm.  One of us works full time and the other works intermittently from home and elsewhere in the neighborhood.  We consider ourselves global citizens (having lived in multiple countries and cities throughout the US and abroad) with progressive values and beliefs.  Our son is 5 months old, energetic, and loves to laugh and smile.  We are seeking a nanny who is reliable, consistent, caring, compassionate, and is willing to cultivate our son’s intellectual curiosity and growth.  This would involve, but is obviously not limited to, feeding, playing, reading, taking walks, sharing stories, and listening to music with him.  The ideal candidate must hold a college degree, be willing to change cloth diapers, undertake some housekeeping, own a car, live within the Portland metro area, and have a minimum of 3 years nanny experience with references.  Preferably the candidate will also be bilingual in English and Spanish.  The candidate should be infant CPR certified, a non-smoker and be willing to provide a background check.  We live in NW Portland near Dragonfly coffee shop, Saint Honoré Bakery, Food Front co-op, and Forest Park.  We are willing to pay between $9 and $12 per hour (and may provide a salaried rate if there’s interest) for a personal nanny based on experience.

Applicants please email us your resume to tspng00 at yahoo.com.  We will contact you to set up an interview only if you meet our selection criteria.

Full-time Nanny Needed for a Two Family Nanny Share in NE Portland

October 31, 2011

Hello!

We are two families in the Alameda-Beaumont neighborhood of Northeast Portland looking for an experienced and enthusiastic nanny for our infants (3 months and 6 months) beginning in January.  Our ideal nanny is dependable, kind, energetic, intelligent, and flexible.

Typical hours are from 8am to 5:30pm, Monday through Friday, beginning in January 2012.  In addition to the two infants, we may also need care for a 3-year-old on one day each week. 

Requirements include:

- Experience with both infants and preschoolers preferred

- Healthy and active, reliable, responsible and creative

- Must pass background check

- Have excellent references (non-family members)

- Have a drivers license, insurance and clean driving record (and own a car or live near NE PDX)

- Be willing to do light housekeeping related to childcare (meal prep/clean-up, children's laundry, keep play areas clean)

 - We prefer not to have a nanny who also brings his/her children along.

The families that you will be working with are laid-back, flexible, unpretentious, non-judgmental, and easy-going people. Ideally, we could have someone start with 1-2 days/week in November and December as well, but that is optional.  We are seeking placement for at least 9 months and potentially much longer. 

If interested in the position, please respond to fj55cruiser@hotmail.com with your resume and salary requirements.

Thank you!

Open doors and Hearts (full/part-time available)

October 24, 2011

Looking to open our arms and heart to a little one while you work. I am a mother of two, one school age the other 20months. I am available to watch your little one from the hours of 8:30- 6pm Mon-Fri however days and times are up for discussion. I currently have my food handlers card and create fun healthy snacks/meals and willing/ able to provide for food sensitivities.

We like to play, read, dance and learn and best part is there is a playmate. I live in the Hawthorne/ Buckman area only three blocks from a park to play on dry days as well as close to the bridge so if you work downtown it is a quick easy drop-off/Pick up. We also have a vehicle for emergency and rare occasions that we may need to drive somewhere, other than that I am an avid bike commuter with a Burley Trailer and extra helmets for rides.  

I  have my Medical Assistance certification as well as Infant CPR/ First aid training. 

So if you are in need of someone affordable to play, love and teach your little one while you're away please contact me!

Part-Time Nanny (Downtown PDX to West Linn)

October 12, 2011

Seeking warm, loving, intelligent part-time nanny from 4 p.m. to 7 or 8 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays. Routine would involve picking our 8-year old daughter up from school (near PSU), take her home (West Linn), prepare dinner, have some transition-to-bed story/play time and very light home care (e.g., folding laundry or doing dishes while she reads). A good candidate will respect children, be patient, kind and hard-working. We are a very close-knit family that values our time together but needs a little help to juggle work and school. We love music, reading and biking. Our daughter plays piano, guitar, violin and ukulele and wants to learn more foreign languages (she is fluent in Spanish and English). Ideally, this position would be long-term, with expanded summer hours. If you are a student, we are flexible during exam weeks if you need time off. $12-15 depending on qualifications. Please reply with a brief description of your qualifications. Permission to check references, criminal history and driving record is required. If you do not drive but feel you are highly qualified, taking the bus may be an option so let us know. familyswartz@gmail.com

Looking for "school" for 2 year old

September 28, 2011

My daughter just turned 2 and has become obsessed with the idea of going to school. We weren't planning on sending her to preschool until next year, but she's asking again and again and anytime we're out and see a preschool she tries to follow them back to school.

I work from home and am able to watch her full time, so am not looking for traditional daycare--nor do I have the budget for that. I'd love someplace she can go for 2 days or so for half days, so she can have the structure of a school-type situation and meet other kids. I have scoured the web looking for co-ops and other options and haven't really come up with much. Most places take only 3 year olds (and up) or are full day daycare situations. 

Any advice, ideas or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Please feel free to message me at nicmmiller at gmail dot com.

In our classroom children participate in baking, gardening, painting and handwork. Songs, stories and puppet shows provide rich material for the imagination and teach about the natural world.
