About Amy

Experience: 10 yrs

Besides raising my own amazing daughter (who is now 20) , I have worked in childcare / direct care since 1998. I have extensive experience with babies, toddlers and school aged children, as well as teens and special needs kids. My approach is : safety first , respect the wishes of parents and then let's have some fun! I love getting kids to use art supplies, listen to music and be creative. Please disregard the negative review from Rosemary below. She was postpartum and upset that I had to put in 2 weeks notice . None of what she said is true. I'm always punctual and attentive. I look forward to hearing from you !

We have loved having Amy as our nanny for the past nine months. We hired Amy when our son was about 6 months old to watch him consistently for a couple of days a week, while we adjusted to both parents going back to work full-time. She has truly become one of his favorite people. Amy is reliable, gentle, and a great problem solver. I have been able to rely on her to help prepare healthy meals and keep a close eye on my child while he is learning to feed himself, which is huge. She is kind and gentle with my child, modeling and verbally teaching him how to express himself in a healthy way. I also overhear the way she reads stories to him, and let me tell you, she's a great storyteller and makes it a truly interactive experience. She has also diligently supported our family with tasks related to the baby, such as folding laundry, washing his dishes, and helping wash my pump parts. Of course, she has fit in well with our family and been so patient with our large puppy (when she's around). As a first-time mom, it was very helpful to have her support both with my child's physical well-being, and with mine emotionally, as she's offered so much valuable wisdom as a mom herself. And, of course, she never made me feel judged for being on the journey of figuring it all out (or the countless naps I took when I wasn't getting great sleep). Her compassion for others comes through in her work, and I am grateful for all my son has learned from her as a caregiver. Hire her!
