About Amber
Experience: 5 yrs
I have over two years of professional Early Childhood Education experience and hold certifications in CPR, First Aid, Child Development, and Special Needs Care. I specialize in working with infants, toddlers, and young children (ages 0-5), but I'm comfortable caring for children up to age 11 and have experience with caring for older children within my home. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where children feel supported while learning independence, confidence, and emotional regulation. My caregiving style is influenced by Montessori, RIE, and gentle-care approaches, with an emphasis on respectful communication, consistency, and age-appropriate activities. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, routines, and postpartum support. I aim to make life easier for families while providing dependable, attentive care they can trust.
Most recent review
Amber is an amazing! She always tries to make sure the kids are learning and having fun even from a young age. We have twin 1 year old girls and a 7 year old and she always takes such great care of them when we are gone. We love having her watch our children and know we don't have to worry when she is in charge!
