My childcare career started as I became an aunt of five at a young age. I was eager and sought after to support my family with their children, from infancy into their teenage years. I have had consistent nanny jobs since age 15. I have experience as an assistant teacher at a preschool. Additionally, I worked as a children's equestrian and nature camp counselor for over 10 consecutive summers, in which I taught children wilderness skills, how to ride horses and hold space for learning and self-growth in many other ways. I love working with children of all ages: crafting, exploring the outdoors, playing games, cooking, and more. I am patient, creative and highly attentive. The children I work with and myself always share fun experiences, often educational too! I have not used Care. com for some time. Now, since moving back to Portland, I am on here to look for my next great family to work with!

Julia was a great nanny. Our son was 7 weeks old when she started. I work from home & my husband traveled during the day/nights. I needed someone in house to help care for our son until he could go to daycare in 2 months. She was a great asset. Although I was in the house, we did not get into each other's way. Her duties included feeding our son, putting him down for naps, & changing him. She even helped out by keeping the kitchen / living room clean (dishes, picked up toys & washed his bottles). She helped me out a few times folding our son's laundry. When the weather was nice, she would go for walks with him. She worked with him on his strength, tummy time, played with him on the ground with his toys, and read him books. We were very impressed with her ability to handle a newborn. She was very gentle. She was able to leave us notes about the amount of milk he ate & naps he took. It was nice to know she was giving him 100% of her attention so we could focus on jobs. She is very kind, gentle and respectable.
