Hello! I am Amelia went to Pace University in NYC to obtain my bachelors in Psychology. I'm originally from Nashville, Tennessee where I began nannying, supervising an 18-mo. old for the summer & now I’m back again! I have babysat for about 7 years now & I have the sweetest nieces & nephews (3 under 3) that I love spending time with. I have experience working with kids of all ages, from newborn to 13, and over the last few years, I've mostly worked with infants & toddlers. I love kids of all ages & have a hard time picking a favorite! I also have experience travel nannying with multiple children and am comfortable adapting to new environments.
