About Amanda

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, additionally I have worked as a nanny part time for a family with 3 kids ranging 10-15 years, and a family with a 2-year-old. 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) I am CPR/ First Aid certified, with a degree in ECE (early childhood Education)

Most recent review

5.0
based on 3 reviews

Amanda is a truly exceptional caregiver, and we were (and are) so fortunate to have worked with her. 5-star online reviews and references are too common nowadays, but they are truly warranted in Amanda's case. We could go on about how her professional experience makes her uniquely qualified to respond to childcare challenges, or how her warmth and patience and kindness show through in every interaction with our kids, but words fail to capture the whole picture. If you are lucky enough to get an application from Amanda, you will not regret hiring her.
