About Amber
Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Amber, and I am a 42-year-old mother, wife, and Bay Area native who finds joy in nature, dancing, yoga and living a holistic lifestyle, all while embracing the beautiful chaos of motherhood and life. For as long as I can remember, I've been passionate about caring for children. With over 25 years of experience, I've taught swimming and gymnastics, nannied for multiples and children with special needs, and supported families with up to five children of various ages. No matter the stage, I am dedicated to helping children reach their milestones with love and a joyful heart. I began my career as a birth doula and transitioned to postpartum care, where I provide families with compassionate support during the early days of parenthood. I am also a child sleep expert and lactation educator, offering specialized care tailored to each family's needs. It would be an honor to walk alongside your family, meeting you where you are and supporting you with love, compassion, and joy.
Most recent review
Amber has absolutely been the best nanny we've ever had, and has also become a great friend along the way. She's been taking care of our little girl since she was three months old, and they completely adore each other. Amber has brought so much energy, support, and laughter into our lives; it's been a godsend. We keep each other updated on our daughter throughout the day, and she can find stuff to tidy or clean during nap times without being asked or micromanaged. Amber has also definitely made an impact on our baby's communication skills, was here with us to experience her first steps, and on several occasions has been able to point out potential issues that we did not notice or didn't know how to solve. We would absolutely recommend her to other families, and will continue to have her care for our toddler in the future.
