Hi! I’m Amanda, and for over 20 years I have found great joy in nurturing, enriching, and supporting children and their families through childcare. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and engaging environment where children feel seen, encouraged, and free to learn, explore, and simply enjoy being kids.
My experience includes working as a teacher’s assistant, serving as a private nanny, and my most rewarding role of all, being a mother to my 12-year-old son. These experiences have shaped me into a patient, dependable, creative, and intuitive caregiver who understands that every child is unique and deserves individualized care.
I enjoy keeping children active and engaged through outdoor play, arts and crafts, imaginative games, reading, and educational activities that inspire curiosity and confidence. I am comfortable caring for up to four children, from newborns through age 11.
With your permission, my homeschooled 12-year-old son may occasionally accompany me. He is kind, respectful, and wonderful with children of all ages. His presence often encourages cooperative play and positive social interaction.
In addition to providing attentive childcare, I’m happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework support, transportation to activities, and swimming supervision. I have completed coursework in early childhood development and maintain current CPR and First Aid certifications.
I believe that strong partnerships with parents are built on trust and communication. I am happy to provide updates throughout the day using your preferred method and to work closely with you to ensure your children receive the best possible.
As a parent myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care. I consider that trust an honor, and I strive to care for every child with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own.
Thank you for considering me. I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your family
