Since the age of approximately 13, I have been babysitting a wide range of children. For three years I helped care for two young boys, ages 4 and 6. During my first year of working for them, it was discovered that the 4-year-old had autism. His family willingly shared with me the full hospital report so that I could have a better understanding of his condition. For the three years I worked for this family I was able to see him grow and really notice a difference in his speech. In addition to working with the two boys, I begun working for an after-school enrichment program at the age of 16. I was employed by this school up and through part of college. In this role I worked with children ages 4-12, in groups of 10-15. The youngest infant I have cared for was2 -weeks old so I am more than comfortable with newborn babies. I have a large extended family who have allowed me to care for their infants while away.

We used Amanda recently to watch our high energy 9 year old son when my husband and I took a trip out of the country. She did a great job managing him responsibly, while at the same time still allowing him to have lots of fun. We have taken multiple trips in the past with other sitters, but with Amanda I truly felt I could relax on vacation because I knew with her maturity, experience, and her ability to connect with my son, she had everything under control. We felt extremely comfortable leaving him in her care, and we will definitely have her watch him again!
