~Terrific Part Time/ Full Time Nanny Open at the end of the Month!~

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

Experienced Nanny Available Late 2012-Early 2013

GREAT NANNY, JUST FOR YOU!

Hi Everyone,

My name is Jillian M. Currently I am involved in a Nanny-Share with two infants, ages 7 months and 9 months. My contract ends at the end of the year when both children will be placed in local Montessori programs. I am looking for a position to start December-February-ish, the official start date is a bit flexiable. 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.

Looking for an affordable loving nanny?

May 07, 2012

Hello. I am a 25 year old mother, and part time student looking for a family in need of a part time nanny.  My family and I just moved, so I lost my job as a nanny, where I was caring for another child along with my own, within my own home. Now I’m looking for a part time child to care for outside the home, where I can potentially bring my own 2 year old daughter with me. 

 

I am highly qualified to be your nanny. Before having my own daughter, I was employed at CCLC “Children’s creative learning center”, as a full time toddler teacher. Before that, I was employed at A Childs Kingdom working mainly with toddlers, and infants. I have worked part time in a few other licensed child care centers, and I’ve been employed as a nanny for two different families. Over all, I have nine years working with children and I love doing it. 

 

I contain an abundant of skills including empathy, energy, communication, listening, playfulness, creativity, organization, multi-tasking etc.  

 

If I sound like I could be a good fit for your childcare needs, please feel free to email me at:

 

itskatelin@gmail.com

 

I look forward to hearing from you!

 

Loving Nanny Available!

April 03, 2012

Experienced childcare provider looking for a family to work with. Specifically interested in long-term, full-time employment. Would consider part-time that would work up to full-time within 6 months.

I have multiple years of experience (total of 10 years childcare experience) working with children ages 0-10. Great families for you to contact that can attest to my ability to be on-time and engaging with children of any age.

Comfortable with cloth diapers (assisting with diaper laundry and children's laundry as well) and feeding expressed milk as well. I'm flexible, easy-going and a great communicator. I am happy to provide a daily rundown of what we did, etc.

Background checked through a reputable childcare website. (care.com). Non-smoker, valid license/insurance and reliable vehicle for transportation (Plymoth Neon, seats 5 total). I can drive manual and automatic transmissions, and vehicles of all sizes if you have one to provide for outings.

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!

Available for any weekly schedule, weekends as well though currently engaged for Saturdays 12-5 until 06/2012.

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 is anywhere from $12.00-$15.00 depending on needs, location, amount of children and offered schedule. I am currently only interested in positions which are 'on the books', where taxes are withheld.

My 1 year old daughter is in need of a travelling nanny while I work during the day on Orcas Island. We would leave Wednesday March 23 and return Monday March 26th. All expenses paid plus $75 a day. We will be staying at a beautiful summer camp with lots of nature to explore. On Sunday night we will head to Friday Harbor on San Juan Island and return late on Monday night. My daughter loves being outside so someone who loves exploring and willing to stay at a large summer camp would be ideal. Possible zip line experiences available. Please contact me if you are interested and I can share more details and answer questions. deanna.r.pickett@gmail.com

Visting Portland: Need Temporary Childcare for 8 Year Old

June 12, 2011

Hey All!

We are visiting Portland with our 8yr old from June 20th to June 28th and would like to have sometime to explore Portland kidless.  We are looking at moving from Austin, Texas to Portland in the next few months but wanted our son to see the city before me made the decision official.  Our schedule is flexible and we have rented a condo on the waterfront/Pearl district.  We are envisioning a couple of nights for us to have dinner and hang out, while a cool-fun-responsible person (with references) hangs out at our condo with the little guy.  Pay $10 to $15 per hour DOE.

If interested, please email your resume or information about yourself and your childcare experience and 3 references to jclaustin@gmail.com

Paul & Jessica

 

 

 

 

 

Great Nanny Available

April 29, 2011

Hi Mamas, My name is Sara and I am a great nanny with strong references looking for a new family to work with starting any time (sooner than later.) I am also happy to accommodate a nanny share. 

I have experience with infants, toddlers and preschoolers and like to get the kids out for outings daily. We like to do the usual suspects such as OMSI, Zoo, Children's Museum, library, parks etc. and also look for less common things such as botanical gardens, Audubon Society, CHAP Art Factory, paint your own pottery places, preschool swim time, skating, etc. We also like to do some crafts, cooking projects, grow vegetables from seed and free play at home. I am happy to attend various classes with your child, and also have experience with infant and toddler potty training. 

I am very patient, handle stress well, and consider myself generally easy going. I am also VERY reliable and punctual  
. I am CPR certified and college educated. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, errands, light yard work and of course cleanup and laundry related to the kids. I grew up with dogs and as an adult have a cat so I am pet friendly as well. 

My ideal family/families will have excellent communication skills, dependability (will follow through with what you say you will do,) not be averse to public transit/biking, and have a generally happy demeanor. My not-that-old car isn't currently running but I am happy to bus, bike, walk, pull a wagon or drive your car with a willingness to use my zip car account on an occasional basis if needed.  I live in SE (on the 10, 14, 72 and near the 19 bus lines) and would LOVE to work with a family who also lives in SE.

Ideally I am looking for full time, but will consider 20-25 hrs as long as they are guaranteed 52 weeks a year and are scheduled in such a way that I could take on another part time job without too much difficulty. I am looking for a long term year round commitment of at least one year if possible. My rates start at $12/hr or $7/hr per family if a share. 

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you think we may be a good fit. (I also do date night and weekend care as well.)

My email address is greatportlandnanny@hotmail.com 059

Great Nanny Available

January 08, 2011

Hi Mamas! I'm a great nanny looking for a new full time family to work for on a long term basis. I have experience with infants through school age, though my most relevant experience is infant through preschool age.

I love to get out and about regularly while maintaining a lunch/nap schedule as well. Some outings I like to do include the usual suspects...OMSI, Zoo, Children's Museum, and library as well as Oaks Park, CHAP Art Factory, 100th Monkey, PlaydatePDX, Audubon Society, Leach Botanical Gardens etc. I also like to do cooking/baking projects, crafts, an occasional movie or Sesame Street day (particularly if a kiddo is sick or has been on the go an unusual amount and needs a mellow day and the weather is particularly bad,) stories, play at home, playdates, classes and camps etc. I like to try and get out every day if possible even if it's just an hour or two.

I am not a neat freak, but I will do my best to leave your house as clean or cleaner than when you left. I always clean up after myself and the kids (but that doesn't mean I've never missed some schmutz on the floor or counter.) I am happy to help with light housekeeping, the kids laundry (but please don't sneak your dirty socks and underwear into the kids laundry basket, :)) errands,  meal prep etc.  Your kids are my first priority, and when time permits, I will try to do things to help make your life easier!

I am college educated and CPR certified. I am punctual and very reliable. I am also open to a nanny share situation. Willing to work non-traditional hours (including overnights) but am looking for a minimum of 32 hrs. I have a car and am flexible about location. I am also willing to travel with you, but would need enough notice to make arrangements for my pets. 

I am looking to work for honest parents who value the work a nanny does and who support the unique relationship a nanny has with their child.  I want to work for parents who follow through with what they say they will do, are good communicators and generally happy people.

I have great references who are happy to talk with you. If you think we might be a match, send me an email at gr8pdxnanny@yahoo.com

Thanks!

Awesome Nanny/Sitter Available!!!!!

December 29, 2010

Awesome Nanny/Sitter Available!!!!

I am 26 years old and have been a full-time nanny for the last 6 years, and have been babysitting for more than 13 years. I have experience with children ages 4 mo. to 10 years old. I also have experience volunteering in a daycare for homeless families, tutoring pre-schoolers with Junior Kumon, and working with at-risk teenagers in Oregon Youth Conservation Core. I have been a volunteer at Doernbecher Children's Hospital in Pediatric Acute Care and the Hematology-Oncology Clinic for the past year.

I have a tight-knit network of moms and nannies that I regularly arrange play dates with, and I am very familiar with library story times, baby gyms, indoor gyms, kid-friendly cafes, Music Together, etc. I love outings to OMSI, Children's Museum, Oregon Zoo, Children's Healing Art Project as well as kid-friendly hikes at Laurelhurst Park and Forest Park. Outings have also included day-trips to State Parks, as well as tide-pool exploration at the beach! I have a strong background in Drawing and Photography and I love doing LOTS of art projects... I speak Korean, a little bit of Spanish, and have experience with baby sign-language.

My style is adaptive towards each child, because each child has his/her own special interests, personality and talents. I like to encourage spending as much time outdoors as possible, hone creative abilities as well as kids' imaginations, and try to laugh as much as humanly possible :)

My educational experience includes courses in Family Studies, Child Psychology, Human Development and Teaching in International Schools. I have a Bachelor's of Science Degree in Liberal Studies and a minor in Black Studies. I am currently applying for nursing programs.

I have an Oregon driver's license and my own vehicle. I am CPR/First Aid certified, including infant CPR, and have my Oregon CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) license.

Right now, I am working as a caregiver for a quadriplegic man in the mornings, and am looking for some supplemental work while I apply for nursing programs. I usually work in the mornings until 12:30pm at the latest, with availability in the afternoons, evenings and weekends. I am open to a regular schedule, as well as tutoring and babysitting. I charge $12/hr, but my rate is flexible and also depends on the number of children.

If you are interested, please contact me for full resume and a list of excellent references. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!!!

Seeking fun, loving, individual to help start daycare/preschool

July 28, 2010

Hello my name is Wendy and I am a professional caregiver. I have over 10 years of experience working with children. First with family members (including a step son), and then for other people's. I am a very warm and compassionate individual that feels very comfortable and competent caring for children. 

It has always been a dream of mine to start my own daycare/preschool. I am looking for an individual that has the space to start this venture or who has the means to rent a space. I am also looking for someone who is laid back, similar minded, and around the same age. I would like to be licensed so you would need to be or able to be registered with the Oregon Criminal History, be CPR/First Aid Certified, have a food handlers, and take or have taken the RCAN (Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect) class. I have worked in a daycare so I have already meet these requirements. If you are interested please contact me at the above e-mail and we can set up a time to meet. 

Thank you, 
Wendy
