About Amanda

I began babysitting in my teens & went on to work for a YMCA, holding the positions of Counselor, Art Instructor & eventually Assistant Camp Director. I have since nannied full time for 4 families. My desire to pursue nannying is rooted in the fact that it is not only rewarding & an opportunity for personal growth, but genuinely fun! I also believe it will give me more of the skills I will eventually need as a nurse, a degree I am slowly but steadily working towards. Some of the things I enjoy doing w/the kids & babies I have worked with are; reading, going to the park, going on walks, imaginary play, going to the library, participating in specialized weekly activities such as gymnastics, swimming, art classes, etc., setting up playdates w/fellow nannies & the list goes on! From experience I am also familiar w/bottle feeding, tummy time, nap schedules, pediatric visits, transitioning from bottle to food, school pick up, potty training & more.
