About Amanda

Experience: 15 yrs

Bringing 15 years of experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles solidified my desire to positively impact young lives. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I am comfortable caring for one child. I have some college coursework, along with First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and crafts. I communicate with parents through written daily reports, regular updates via text or phone call, and I always follow your preferred method. Enforcing household rules is no problem. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my calm energy and experience to your family.

If you’re looking for someone who is truly dependable, compassionate, and incredible with children, I cannot recommend her enough. She has a natural ability to connect with kids of all ages, making them feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. What stands out most is her selflessness—she consistently puts the needs of others first and goes above and beyond without ever being asked. Whether it’s helping with routines, keeping children engaged in fun and meaningful activities, or simply offering comfort and patience, she handles everything with such grace and attentiveness. She is someone you can fully trust. She’s responsible, reliable, and always shows up with a positive attitude and a calming presence. Parents can feel confident knowing their children are not only safe, but truly cared for and valued. Her kindness, nurturing spirit, and strong sense of responsibility make her an absolute gem when it comes to childcare. Any family would be lucky to have her.
