Find experienced babysitters in Scappoose, OR

Hi there! I am Abby (she/her). I graduated from the University of Washington in June 2024. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Education, Communities, and Organizations with Disability Studies and American Indian Studies minors. I have been caring for children for 6 years as a babysitter and as the oldest sibling, as well as supervising children in summer camp and school settings. My babysitting experience ranges in ages from infant to twelve. I recently cared for a one year old for six months, starting when she was only six months herself - this included diaper changes, feedings, putting her down for naps, and taking her on adventures to Kids Club, swimming, and free events at the local library. I have also babysat toddlers and assisted them with potty training. I also babysit families with siblings ranging in ages of 2-4 and 6-10. I truly love working with kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. With each family I understand cleaning is not expected but light housework such as dishes, vacuuming, and tidying up the toy room is no problem for me! I have experience babysitting children with ASD and ADHD. I have found success in building relationships with these children through discussing triggers, what the child enjoys, and boundaries with parents before we start working together. I am also passionate about working with children with disabilities in the school setting. I am currently a substitute, often filling in as a paraprofessional. From September 2023 to May 2024 I held an internship as a substitute paraprofessional in the Seattle Public School system, regularly working at Concord International Elementary School. Nothing makes me happier than reading, doing crafts, playing games/puzzles and being outside! My number one focus is keeping the children happy but most importantly safe. I have my CPR certification and can run a background check upon request. I'm available ONLY on weekends, hopefully for the occasional date night. I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet your family and get to know your children!

In 10 years as a nanny in Portland, I have worked with some wonderful families. I thrive in an environment where I have the empowerment and freedom to keep to a schedule while leaving things flexible to accommodate changes. I value safety, kindness and fun. Time outdoors or at cultural events are always time well spent and time at home should be filled with joy and snacks! I have a BS from Smith College in Psychology and a minor in Developmental Education. My experience includes foster parenting, substitute teaching K-12; student teaching, teaching crafts to kids through Catholic Charities, as well as teaching adults. You will find me to be mature, open to suggestion, punctual, transparent, with good boundaries, and open communication. I am also silly, crafty, patient, open, kind, and fun - so I’m told by adults and kids alike.

Hi! I'm Danika, I'm 24 years old and I love working with kids! i have a 2 year old baby girl at home, but i'm no stranger to childcare! There is a chance i will have to bring my daughter along, due to childcare issues but she's super well behaved & loves to play! I had a younger sibling that I grew up watching and taking care of. I've had three + years of childcare experience, as well as volunteering in a special education classroom for high school and elementary. I also worked in the nursery at my church when I was younger.

Hi! I am 32yrs old, bilingual(Spanish/Eng) & a Vancouver resident. Raised in Southern California and recently moved here from Sonoma County, Northern CA. I’m currently the Outreach Supervisor at Council for the Homeless and have 15yrs experience in childcare of all ages. I love caring, nourishing, and watching over kids. Under my care, I love for them to feel safe, happy, fed, and to have fun! While I'm not an expert at any of these, I love & encourage reading, dancing, music & art. I am comfortable and capable of caring for multiple kids and of all ages. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving kids around, if needed. I love cooking and I don’t mind preparing meals. Feel free to message me with any questions!

Hello! I absolutely love children of all ages. In high school and college, I baby sat children from a few weeks old to 12 years. I have worked with a lot of multiple-children families and am comfortable with multi-tasking.     I love active play as well as doing art projects and baking with the children that I am caring for. I don’t believe that you are paying me to watch your children watch television, so I try to make sure we are always doing some sort of activity. I have tutored children in many subjects and if your kids are school-aged, their homework is a priority of mine.   I speak Spanish at a conversational level and am always up for teaching kids some basic Spanish while I am with them. I also can sign ASL.   If you need help with any housework (such as laundry or prep-cooking, etc.), I would love to assist with that while the children are sleeping or engaged in another project.    I look forward to meeting your family!

Hello, I have been a full-time nanny in Vancouver for the past 17 months and am seeking a new position as my current employer will be taking extended leave for the birth of their new baby.

Hi, my name is Stephanie. While I am new to babysitting with one year of experience I was considered the local babysitter in my hometown in California!

I’m a very energetic person and would ensure your children are entertained and having fun while providing a safe and nurturing environment. I have my basic life support certification which includes CPR and basic first aid so your children will be in safe hands. I also wouldn’t not mind getting done any extra chores around your home and making simple meals. Anything I can do to help support you and your family!
