About Amanda

I currently do childcare for several families and have flexible availability. I have references. I have a well behaved 7-year-old son who I homeschool and will also be in my care on all jobs, which is a bonus if you have an only child (yay, playdate!) I follow gentle parenting principles. My childcare style is that no matter what age, a child is a whole person requiring respect, understanding, and kindness. Whatever your child needs to feel happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I can have drop off or come to you. I am happy to bring books, toys, a craft, or board games with me if needed. I can provide pet sitting for well-behaved animal companions (dogs, cats, fish, rats, rabbits, etc just fine. No dogs that jump or bite!), and light cleaning.
