Amoya Murphy
Paterson$18/hr
Hello, my name is Amoya Murphy. I am 21 years old, live independently, and I am currently in college studying to become a doctor. As the oldest of five siblings, I’ve had years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. In addition, I have volunteered at summer camps and daycares, where I learned how to create safe, fun, and engaging environments for children. These experiences have strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to connect with kids on their level. I enjoy reading, watching movies, and doing creative activities, which I often share with the children I care for. Families describe me as reliable, nurturing, and attentive, and I take pride in balancing structure with fun. My goal as a nanny is to provide children with the same love, support, and encouragement I give my own siblings, while also making parents feel confident and at ease knowing their children are in good hands.ve that I give my own siblings.
