About Amanda

Experience: 10 yrs

I have 20+ years of childcare experience, including part-time and full-time nannying throughout undergraduate and graduate school. I specialize in newborns, infants, and toddlers through ages 3-4. I remain very close with the families I've worked with over the years, reflecting the lasting relationships I value building with both children and parents. I hold two master's degrees in psychology and school psychology, with professional experience evaluating children ages 4 and up. My background provides a strong understanding of child development and developmental milestones. I also have experience with sleep training. As a very involved aunt to two nephews (9 and 6) and a niece (2. 5) caring for children is a meaningful part of my life. I'm seeking a temporary daytime nanny or mother's helper position during a career transition. I'm comfortable with baby laundry, bottle sterilization, and nursery organization.

As a first-time mom, I was very nervous about leaving my little baby boy with anyone other than family. Amanda was the first person I felt COMPLETELY comfortable leaving him with. She started when my baby was about 2 months old. I cannot say enough good things about her. She was so wonderful with my little boy. She has so much knowledge about babies and taught me so much! She is also very calm, patient, sweet and loving. She is also very neat and clean - I would come back and my kitchen would be spotless! I wish we could have her full-time! Whoever gets her is very lucky!
