About Amelea
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I love to work with children young and old! I hold space for moments that harbor healthy development through PLAY, EXPLORATION, spending time OUTDOORS and incorporating enriching HANDS-ON PROJECTS, activities. I am very down to earth, fun-loving and enjoy caring for, bonding and making meaningful connections with children of all ages. I have recent experience running my own forest school and 6 yrs of summer camps with young children in the East Bay (ages 4-13). I taught garden/outdoor science for 5 yrs (grades k-5). I have worked in childcare since age 12 (my first 9-5 babysitting job with a 2 yr old and a 5 yr old!). In h. s., I did newborn care. I studied early childhood psychology + hold a degree in Environmental Education. During college I nannied for a family with 5 children ages 2, 3, 5, 7, 8. I did cooking, light housekeeping, diaper changing, bath times, bed times, play, homework help, projects and accompanied them on some overnight trips. My rate is $35-50/hr.

Amelea is in a class of her own. She babysat my 4-year-old for five days in a row while I attended a conference in San Jose. He had a fantastic time with her. She came with many ideas for great outings. She has a wonderful manner with children and my son grew extremely fond of her. I found her really nice to talk to and deal with, and totally reliable. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
