About Stacey

Hi families! I bring a unique mix of academic training, hands-on caregiving, and genuine heart to every child I work with. I hold a B. S. in Psychology (minor in Business) from Portland State University, which I completed at 43 with a focus on understanding societal shifts and how supportive adults can best guide children through life. While I cannot have biological children, I've had the joy of raising two daughters (now 22 and 17) through deep personal connections. When I'm with your kids, I'm 100% on their level--whether that's floor play, managing bottles and diapers, or taking charge while you step away. I adore children of all ages and step in with complete confidence. With the summer season ending, my schedule has opened up and I am looking to add 1 or 2 part-time families (ideally 1-2 days a week each). I currently nanny on Thursdays for a family with 4 girls (and a new baby arriving in November!), but I have broad flexibility outside of that.
