Hi, my name is Amber. I’m currently a student at University College of Nursing, entering my third year as I pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Originally from California, I moved to Arizona for school and have truly enjoyed the experience so far. I’m 21 years old and offer reliable child care services. I have hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens, primarily through babysitting my younger cousins. I’m responsible, nurturing, and committed to creating a safe and positive environment for the families I work with.
Reliable and responsible 18-year-old college student at Arizona State University available for part-time nanny and babysitting jobs. As the oldest of three, I’ve spent years helping care for my two younger siblings (now 12 and 9), so I’m comfortable with homework help, school routines, meals, and keeping kids entertained without constant screens. I’m punctual, patient, and easygoing, and I take safety seriously. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, rides to activities, and pet care as needed. Looking for occasional or part-time jobs that fit around my college schedule. References available.
I have raised 5 kids and 8 grandkids I love all kids of all ages and love to see them grow. I also enjoy cooking and household tasks making sure everything stays in order. I am English and Spanish speaking.
I have extensive experience caring for children from 2½ months to 17 years old through professional nannying, babysitting, tutoring, and working in both home and school environments. I earned my degree in Elementary Education with minors in Special Education and English as a Second Language (ESL), which has given me a strong understanding of child development and how to support children with a wide range of learning styles and abilities. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with children with and without disabilities, providing individualized care, academic support, and creating fun, structured environments where they can thrive. My experience includes classroom support, tutoring, homework help, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, maintaining routines, transporting children, and supervising outings and field trips. In addition to childcare, I have experience teaching swim lessons and coaching water polo, helping children build confidence, develop new skills, and stay active. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking kids on adventures like hikes, trips to the park, nature walks, and other activities that encourage curiosity, learning, and exploration. Families describe me as dependable, patient, energetic, and compassionate. I believe in creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel supported, valued, and encouraged to grow. My goal is to become a trusted part of your family’s team while providing exceptional care and giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are happy, safe, and well cared for.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
