Experience: 10 yrs
My passion for nurturing young minds led me to become a childcare provider. With 20 plus years of experience, I'm dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing environment where children thrive. My calm demeanor and patient nature help create an atmosphere conducive to growth and learning. I pride myself on open and respectful communication with parents. I love working with children, and seeing their faces light up as they learn and grow through childhood. I currently work with 3-6-year-olds as a Head Start teacher, and nanny part time for a 2-year-old boy. I have worked with children of all ages (infants-6) for over 20+ years, in a preschool setting, as well as a Montessori setting, I love animals( I have 2 fur babies) and I am CPR/ First Aid certified, with a clean driving record. I will be relocating to Melbourne, FL the first week this September:)
Amanda came to babysit my 2yo at a time when my husband was going to be out of town for an extended time. She bonded quickly with my son, would do interesting age appropriate sensory, water, other activities. She would take him to park, library, keep him busy, occupied but learning at the same time. I highly, highly recommend Amanda. We’re sad to let her go as we move out of the area.
