About Amanda
Experience: 10 yrs
For over a decade, I've been dedicated to nurturing children's development and providing families with dependable care. I'm passionate about making a positive impact on young lives. My approach is patient, creative, and friendly. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities with children. I have experience with age groups 0-11. I am comfortable caring for two children. I have First Aid Training and CPR Training. I also have experience with special needs children and Early Childhood Education coursework. I can assist with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision. I am well versed in Sign Language (ASL). I communicate with parents using their preferred method, including verbal updates and texts. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I'm eager to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family, creating a safe and happy environment for your children to thrive.
Most recent review
Amanda is an incredible caregiver and we were so lucky to work with her from the time our twin boys were 4 months old until they were a little over 3 years. She took care of our kids full time for that entire duration. She is dependable, reliable, and a great communicator. More importantly she loves kids and is devoted to child development. Amanda was always thinking of creative and age appropriate activities for the boys and was eager to read up on and brainstorm solutions to any unique challenges we were having. We looked to Amanda for support and advice and she was a great thought partner. She takes her role seriously and yet always finds joy with the kids. She always noticed the things our kids liked doing and looked for ways to encourage their interests further. It's been over a year since we have worked with Amanda and our boys still light up when we talk about her. We can't recommend her enough!
