Lauren J. - Portland Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Lauren J.

Part-Time, 5 Years of Experience

I have been working with kids for many years. In the last few years I have been a nanny for children with special needs. I also have been teaching swim lessons (and gym games) to kids with special needs. I have worked with infants, kids, and the elderly. I am comfortable with watching many children at once, I am a regular baby sitter for a family with 12 kids! I am trained in CPR, First Aid, and can administer medication. I also cook (healthy meals), clean and carpool.
