About Amanda

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello and nice to meet you! My name is Amanda. One thing I've always been passionate about is fostering children's growth and development. As a part-time substitute science teacher, I find great joy in playing and learning alongside the kids, and my aim is to get into nature and explore our world together. I've relished in the opportunity to help children of all ages learn and grow through supportive emotional and physical relationships. My friends say that I'm a creative, friendly, approachable, and energetic individual. When it comes to communicating with parents, I adapt to their preferred method: whether it's a chat at pickup or regular updates via text or phone call. As for enforcing household rules, I follow the parents' lead without exception. I'm comfortable caring for up to four (4) children at once, and I'm open to caring for children of all ages. However I can be of most assistance to your family, that is my goal.

She was very nice and understanding for our 6yr old son, who also has autism. She was open to letting him pretty much be himself. And accommodated him when he needed help. I highly recommend Amanda, and look forward to using her in the future.
