About Amanda

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children and building meaningful bonds with families has been my professional focus for over 10 years. I hold a graduate degree in Psychology, which informs my approach to fostering development in children ages newborn through 12. I have experience in Applied Behavior Analysis working with kids with Autism and working with students with 504 plans and IEP in the school setting. My care style is creative and imaginative; I love organizing scavenger hunts, chalk obstacle courses, and educational games to keep little ones engaged. I am also happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping to support your household. I maintain CPR Training. I follow your lead regarding house rules and enjoy providing a detailed summary of our day when you return home. I am a skilled swimmer, and am capable and happy to provide attentive supervision during pool time. I truly look forward to becoming a positive, reliable part of your family!

If you are looking for a caregiver who is patient, intuitive, and genuinely wonderful with children, Amanda is the person. She looks after our five-year-old son, who has autism, and the level of care she provides is unmatched. Amanda meets him exactly where he is, handles transitions beautifully, and creates a safe, fun environment for him. We couldn’t recommend her more!
