About Amanda

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Amanda, and childcare has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've worked as a nanny, spent time as an au pair in both Turkey and Italy, taught at a preschool, assisted in an elementary school classroom, and even taught ESL. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of kids at every stage, from toddlers discovering the world to school-aged children growing into their personalities. I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each child as an individual. I love creating a safe, calm environment while still keeping things fun and engaging. Whether we're doing crafts, homework, outdoor play, or practicing language skills, I try to bring positivity and structure to each day. I'd love to support your family and be someone you can trust and depend on.
