Amanda B. - Philadelphia Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Amanda B.

Part-Time, 5 Years of Experience

My name is Amanda, and I am a 23-year-old nanny with five years of wonderful child care experience! My experience includes working with children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I also have experience working with special needs children, which includes working with children who are on the autism spectrum, children with muscular dystrophy, children who are mentally handicapped, children with ADHD, etc. I love the outdoors, arts and crafts, and anything related to music. Although I feel that there are some great education videos that can benefit children during meal time, I'm not the type of nanny who sits the children in front of the television for lack of nothing else to do! That makes for a long day for me and them! I am extremely reliable, trusting, hardworking, caring, and flexible. Although I am easy going, I am also EXTREMELY safety-oriented and can assure you that you will never worry when your children are in my care. Please ask me for my references, as I value the confidentiality of my previous employers and do not want to post their information online.
