"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

I am very experienced, responsible, loving and compassionate and energetic! I have two sons who are 24 and 28. (one has epilepsy and one has ADHD) I also have two stepdaughters who are 13 and 15 (one is ASD) I have always had a passion for taking care of babies, children and animals. I worked at my aunt's in home daycare when I was younger. She has a degree in early childhood development. She taught me ways (that still have an impact on me) to provide a nurturing and safe environment and fun ways to instill learning I am a nonsmoker, have reliable transportation and high comfort level with animals. I currently take care of my friend's baby on their date nights, have been taking care of her since she was born. She is now 14 months. I recently left my career in corrections (8/24/25) for a career that is more rewarding. For me, that is helping people. I have a BA in Criminology (minor in Soc) from Capital. My CPR and First Aid certifications are through Franklin County (copies available) I currently nanny part time for 3 families on week days (ages 7 months to 10 years old). I am also a available on occasional weekday evenings and weekends.
