About Kayla

Experience: 6 yrs

I'm a mom looking to get back into work part-time (with the possibility of full-time in the future). I'm hoping to find a family open to me bringing my 14-month-old daughter along! Theres a possibility I'll be bussing, so something in or near NW Portland would be ideal. A little about me: • 5 years of experience as a preschool teacher • Nannied in between teaching roles • Most of my experience is with infants through 3-year-olds • Very play-based, gentle, and respectful caregiving style My rate is around $22/hr, adjusted since I'd be bringing my daughter. I'm hoping to find a family who sees the benefit of little ones growing and socializing together in a warm, loving environment. If this sounds like a good fit, I'd love to chat!

Kayla is a truly wonderful caregiver...kind, patient, and deeply attentive to children’s needs. She was our children’s daycare teacher, and we were so fortunate to also have her care for them as our private nanny when the school closed for a month for renovations. In both settings, she was consistently excellent with the kids. Kayla is warm and caring, and she communicates beautifully with children. She taught our kids sign language and was always thoughtful about helping them express themselves. She knew how to be firm when needed, but she also brought so much joy. She’s fun, bubbly, and happily silly at just the right moments. She is reliable and on time, and very easy to work with. As a nanny and as a teacher, she went out of her way to plan creative crafts and engaging activities. She even surprised the kids with small prizes and activities using her own money, which we never expected but found incredibly kind and generous. Our children absolutely adored Kayla, and so did we. She is an exceptional caregiver, and anyone who has the opportunity to hire her would be very lucky.
