About Laura

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello and thanks for stopping by! I ideally would love a live-in situation with the right family or single parent. Happy to chat about details and see if that might be a good fit. I love babies and specialize in infant and toddler care, from assisting with feeding and sleep schedules to helping them transition from breast/bottle to solid foods, and helping with potty training. I have cared for many children over the years and am also a mother (college student) and care for all children as such. Some of my hobbies and activities include: being a plant mom, playing guitar, ceramics, cooking, hiking, bike rides, reading to kids, and speaking Spanish. I am available for part-time (hours listed below with some flexibility.) I currently live in NE Portland. I have a car, am first aid/CPR certified, and can provide excellent references. Please feel free to get in touch!

Laura has been fantastic in helping with the care of our infant son. She's very attentive and very interactive with him (talks, plays, reads, etc.). It's been a tremendous relief having her support especially given this is our first baby. She's even great with our dogs, who seem to feel a little left out since the little one arrived. We're really glad to have found her.
