Sitter in Portland, Oregon

I'm an
Agency / Company
Hello, I was once a substitute teacher/tutor/nanny. I was working in travel for the past handful of years but the pandemic has redirected my career. The community needs care givers and I’d like to put my name back in the hat. Services And Training: I worked for an in home senior care staffing company when I was 19. The company no longer exists so I am unable to provide a reference. I worked for Kelly Educational Staffing for Orange County Florida’s substitute teaching. That business went under in the recession of ‘08. I was a nanny for little miss O’Conner from when she was 7 until she turned 10. I am reaching out to her father and grandad now for a reference. I took care of her everyday care needs from meals and activities to homework and school/doctor appointments, etc. I have intermittently babysat most of my friends children and their references can be provided immediately. I tutored a young man through the summer of 2019 through 3rd grade work. Reference can be provided immediately. My schedule is very flexible and I’d like to help any way I can. I was a maid for two military families so if you need help with cleanup a reference can be provided as well. I have a valid Oregon driver’s license if you need help with school pick up and drop off/appointments etc. However my recent truck purchase has a huge delay on tag and title due to DMV backups. I am also not confident in the backseat allowing for a safe car seat secured so perhaps older children that would only need a smaller booster seat for transportation seems best service offer option. Message me with any questions and service/scheduling needs for the Portland area.
