Meet Amber

Hi! Last year, I moved to DC with my husband, and decided to put my 7 year teaching career on pause to get acquainted to the city. Since moving, I've been substitute teaching, tutoring and caring for the children (ages 2, 4, 9 and 12) of two families several times a week, and I've loved every minute of it! Care giving started for me when I was 12, and continued on into high school when I had the pleasure of being a full-time summer nanny. Also, during holiday breaks and summers while I was in college, I worked with students ages 2-12 at a local day school and summer camp. All of my experiences with children have equipped me with the ability to problem solve on the fly, relate to a variety of personalities and simply find joy in time spent with children. I am energetic, honest and dependable. With the school year coming to an end, I am looking for an afternoon/evening only and/or all day Friday SUMMER position to add to the clients for whom already enjoy working.

Amber babysits my two boys (ages 2 and 4) a couple mornings a week. She is AWESOME and we are just thrilled to have her. She's always been on time, if not early; is so loving and genuinely interested in the kids; and takes initiative to help out with whatever's needed. She's got great experience working with kids which you can tell by seeing how she interacts with them, the questions she asks, games she plays, etc. She's also speaking a bit of Spanish to my kids and is a teacher, so is wonderful at that too! Couldn't be happier with Amber so far.
