About portia

Making a positive impact on children's lives is what I strive for as a caregiver. For the past five years, I've supported families by providing reliable childcare for children aged 1-12+. My college degree and early childhood development coursework, coupled with my experience as a certified teacher, have equipped me with the skills to create engaging and educational experiences. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I'm also comfortable enforcing household rules and caring for up to two children at a time. I'm happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and crafts. I always follow the parents' preferred communication method. I am CPR and First Aid trained. Seeing children with special needs gain confidence and joy when they feel supported is my greatest motivation. It would be a privilege to bring my passion for caregiving into your home.
