Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I'm a 31-year-old fun loving caregiver with thorough childcare experience. I'm the oldest of 6 siblings, and have been caring for children professionally for 15+ years. Throughout high school and college I babysat for multiple families. Most of the families I've worked for kept me as their main sitter for years, welcoming me as a part of their family. In my longest nannying job, I started with a family when the oldest was 3 months and stayed until she was 4. 5 yrs and joined with an infant sister. I'm not the kind of sitter that plops kids in front of electronic devices. I'm passionate about creative child-led play, imagination use, outdoor time and art! I've also been a sleepaway camp counselor for multiple summers. I've recently relocated back to Portland from Denver and would love to get acquainted with some local families for date nights or regular care!

Erin was our nanny for over 2.5 years and I can not recommend her enough! She started with our family when our oldest was 3 months old; her calm & caring energy immediately put me at ease. She always prioritized outdoor time with our girls, loved to read and listen to music with them. The girls still request that I play certain 'Erin Songs'. She was with us through the birth of our second child as well, and handled 2 under 2 with ease. Erin went above & beyond in cleaning up after the girls, and cooking amazing food. We miss her terribly, and highly recommend her to anyone lucky enough to have her!
