"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 a 53 year old woman who loves to work with children, seniors and pets. When my children were young, I owned a daycare in my home, for infants, up to school age children. I have raised 2 children of my own, who are both wonderful adults now. For the last 7 months I have been a live in caregiver for an 83 year old, disabled woman. I truly enjoyed caring for this lady, but have moved and looking to watch children again. I have a heart for helping others. In my spare time, I house sit for animals when the pet owners go away, as well as provide dog walking services. I love animals too and would be happy to help in whatever way needed.

Hi! My name is Amy and I live in Nashville. I have been a nanny and childcare provider for over ten years. I love working with children and watching them grow and excel.
“We were so fortunate to have Amy care for our two-year-old. She is patient, attentive, and incredibly nurturing, and she quickly built a trusting, loving bond with our child. She has a wonderful understanding of toddlers and consistently engaged our child with age-appropriate play, reading, and daily routines that felt both structured and fun. Her communication was clear and reliable, and we always felt confident that our child was safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. Any family would be lucky to have her, and we recommend her wholeheartedly”
