Hi! I live in Gilbert with my fiance after we both graduated college at GCU. I studied film, and still work on set most weeks, but I have a lot of free time on days off! I started childcare with babysitting in 2020 when many familes needed extra childcare, and ended up nannying all through college for a couple of different families, mostly for kids in the 2-7 year old range. I also spent two summers working at the YMCA summer camp for preschool-1st graders, which taught me a lot about early childhood education. Since graduating (and having a bit more of a varied schedule due to film work), I switched to just babysitting (and the occasional dog/house sitting) on my days and weekends off. I am happy to help with dogs, but I am unfortunately allergic to cats! As far as myself, I love to read, play cozy games, and have been really loving traveling around the US this year! My favorite place to be in the world is on a beach, and I've been getting really into making my own lattes at home.
Hi. My name is Amara, a proud mom of four wonderful kids,with a heart for children. I'm excited to extend my care and experience to your newborn to tweens. Keep them happy,loved and safe. Beyond childcare, I enjoy keeping a clean, cozy environment,whether that means tidying up, doing dishes, or laundry and homework because I believe kids do best in happy, organized spaces. When I’m not with little ones, you’ll find me enjoying a good book, singing, or listening to music. I’d love the chance to bring hugs and peace of mind to your family while making your child’s day brighter.
“I’ve seen firsthand how wonderful Amarachi is with kids, and I can honestly say she’s an amazing babysitter and exceptional mom of 4. She is dependable, kind and goes above and beyond to make sure children feel safe and happy. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring, Amarachi is a fantastic choice.”
I have been working with kids since I was 12 years old. I’ve worked in daycare’s been a nanny, a paraprofessional in a school. I am for certified and babysit occasionally.
“Amazing sitter! We are lucky to have you! ”
Hello! As a teenager, I lifeguarded for a very busy water park, and I learned to govern a child's behavior to keep them safe as well as interact with them in a manner that keeps the tone playful, yet informative. I taught countless swim classes over the summers with young children to pre-teens, and I found that maintaining a relational bond with kids makes the learning process stronger. I grew up with siblings over ten years younger than me and have spent their early years managing their behavior, learning habits, and their fun. I have also babysat for neighbors, especially during high school and after high school. I would love to find a family to connect with and provide meaningful, engaging care for!
Hello! I am currently a graduate student studying Speech-Language Pathology, and have an MA in Early Childhood Special Education. With experience working with children of all ages and abilities I am patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy supporting kids as they learn, play, and grow. I’ve worked with children in both educational and home-based settings and am comfortable with daily routines, homework help, and engaging activities. I strive to create a fun and structured environment, and I value clear, open communication with families. Safety, trust, and individualized care are always my top priorities. I enjoy reading, crochet and coffee - I appreciate any and all book or coffee shop recommendations!
“Sonali came prepared with bubbles and books for the kids and kept me informed via text. Our boys warmed to her immediately and were all smiles at the end of the evening. She clearly loves children.”
