About Amaya

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi my name is Amaya, and I've been caring for children from newborns to preteens for over six years now. I am CPR certified, a non-smoker, and comfortable around pets. I also assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and maintaining organized routines to help busy families. I'm currently attending nursing school with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. Families describe me as dependable, patient, nurturing, and attentive to each child's unique needs. I started working with children at the age of 16 and have since gained experience with a variety of age groups. My key strengths include providing emotional support, being patient, multitasking, and building trusting relationships with families.

Amaya took care of my kids for 4 years until we moved away. I’ve never trusted a sitter more than her. She became family to us! She was there for us through some really hard times as well. I will forever be thankful for her!
