About Amelia

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I've been a trusted & valued nanny for over two decades. I grew up dancing & singing in the PNW, earned a masters degree from NYU & worked in film & tv for 10 years, but am moving back to the PNW! I'm autistic and non-binary & discovering my identities later in life helps me to create environments where kids are more able to discover who they might be in the future & who they are now. My goal is to raise empathetic, self-sufficient humans who care about the people and places around them & to help kids find joy in life. I encourage kids to advocate for themselves, take their feelings & thoughts seriously & also understand kids aren't capable of fully caring for themselves yet. Every child deserves a safe space that serve their unique needs as they develop. I curate my child-education content to include intersectional, trauma informed approaches & find purpose in educating myself & challenging my biases & privilege to best approach what a kid needs. Start date as early as Oct 1!
