I have 10 years of nanny and babysitting experience. For four years now I have been a nanny for twins who are both on the Autism Spectrum. I have a step-sister who has traumatic brain injuries and a step-brother who is autistic. I also have twin sisters who have ADHD and learning disabilities. I also have experience caring for those with special needs, which I gained through field experiences, such as student teaching.

    We have recently begun working with Amanda. She is a very genuine, kind and thoughtful person. Our son has responded very well to her. She is detail oriented, professional, and always prompt. We feel very lucky to have Amanda working with us. We can see that she has a wonderful spirit and knowledge base to take her successfully into her chosen career. We really appreciate her.
