Experience: 8 yrs
Empowerment, education and support are my goals as I work with families. Having been drawn to birth work for many years, I am so grateful to pursue my dream of serving as a postpartum doula. A lifelong love of learning keeps me motivated to continuously expand my knowledge through classes and personal study in this specialized work. My experience includes over 8 years of childcare for newborns and children of all ages. I worked for a family with multiple children, where I cared for the children of all ages, in addition to cleaning their 3-story home! I am currently available 2 days or evenings per week. I also worked in the Natural and Organic food industry for 19 years and am passionate about supplements, natural remedies and meditation.
Amy started as a nanny with our family when our daughter was four months old. I was nervous beforehand as this was our first non-family caregiver, but any worries were quickly dispelled as I could tell right away we were in great hands. Amy has blown me away with her extreme professionalism. She's reliable, communicative, punctual, prepared, thoughtful, and detail oriented. She's respectful of our routine and wishes, but also very helpfully provides knowledge, insight, and research when needed. Most of all, she's warm, friendly, attentive, and takes wonderful care of our daughter. She's truly a gift and a joy to have in our home, and we're so glad to have found her!
