About Danielle

My name is Danielle (she/her) and I'm 26! I live in SE Portland with my partner and our young pup. I am currently a Master's student and transitioning out of my job in transportation advocacy work and hopping back into childcare to support my neighbors and spend time with kiddos. Because I have a young dog, my schedule currently allows for 3-4 hour blocks of time away from her, so great for after school or date nights! In my free time, I am a community organizer and climate justice advocate and love to be outside! Our society is making it increasingly difficult to just be a kid! I will always remember the people that cared for me in my childhood who made everything a little easier, and I love to be that person for kiddos growing up. I started working with kids when I was about 16. I've cared for children aged 2 months- 11 years full-time, part-time and overnight.
