About Amanda

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi families! My name is Amanda, I'm 25 years old and I started working as nanny in my home country, Brazil, 7 years ago. I took care of my nephew and niece since they were born. Also, I had a full time job as nanny for a 2-year-old girl and 3-year-old boy. I moved to US in 2022. I took care of 5-year-old twins in California during one year and now in NYC I take care of 3 big kids. I'm high recommended in some apps and have references that can give you a great review of my work. I describe myself as extremely patient, calm, hard working, organized, punctual and friendly. I love working with kids because I have the opportunity of being part of their growth. It's a privilege to have the joy that kids can give. I always look for their comfort and happiness. I become a kid too because I love to play and interact with kids. I hope I have the opportunity to meet you! :)

Amanda is Amazing! We had the good fortune to work with Amanda throughout the Summer last year. Immediately my two children took to her. Her warmth, playfulness and steadiness immediately put us all at ease. She brings so much joy. She is reliable and a great communicator. To note, one of my children has special needs, and she was so solid in managing some of his most challenging behaviors. It is not overstated to say how much we all grew to love her. We were so sad when she moved, and would be very fortunate to be able to work with her again. But regardless, many of the experiences and games she shared with my children, still are brought up fondly. We miss her, and I highly recommend her!
