A little bit about me
I am a nurturing and responsible nanny with over four years of experience caring for children of all ages. As the oldest of eight siblings, I naturally developed strong caregiving skills, patience, and adaptability. My experience as a behavioral therapist for children has given me valuable insights into child psychology, emotional regulation, and supporting children with different learning styles and needs.
I believe in creating a warm and structured environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and engaged. I incorporate age-appropriate educational activities to support cognitive development while making learning fun. Whether it’s arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, or homework help, I tailor activities to each child’s interests and developmental stage.

A little bit about me
I’ve worked with kids for over 10 years in a variety of settings - from summer camp to nannying & teaching preschool. I have a degree in child psychology, training in CPR & first aid, & do my best to stay on top of new techniques, approaches, & concerns for modern-day parents. I have experience working with kids who are neurodivergent (especially those with autism or ADHD) & those who are queer (or questioning their identities); I am able to empathize with the unique joys & challenges your kids may be facing in their day-to-day lives.
I'm here for both you & your child -- whether it's helping out around the house or with homework, working through communication breakdowns or difficulties at school, or teaching independence & age-appropriate decision making. I want to be an asset to your family in as many ways as possible. I’m ready to help your kids (& you, parents!) to navigate developmental milestones, & have some fun along the way.

A little bit about me
Just arrived from Florida after completing my education 4years abroad, Entiendo de poco Español, I grew up in Edmonds, WA.
I was a nanny for 4yr old boy 1yr old boy, when I was 16 years til 23, very rewarding still close to the Mom and now adolescent boys. I’m 10/10 educated with every age til 18 except newborns, I have experience but still learning.
My mom is a full time teacher @Brier, Wa. and Expert on kids with special needs, a true miracle worker I got to work close behind her for 10+ years.
I have a valid driver license, extremely experienced driver. I don’t have my own kid friendly car yet, but am thriving and working hard to get one, to be of extra assistance.
Cooking is a hobby and skill, so meal prep and snack time will not be forgotten. I’m okay to play games/arts and crafts with your little one, while maintaining the house hold.
I’ve been first aid and CPR certified since first class at Edmonds Stevens Hospital.

Nanny Amy
"Amy made a natural connection quickly with our 4 year old son and has been our go-to babysitter for 1 year and a half now. She engages with him and keeps him well entertained. He is not quick to trust new people, so we were ready for her to be challenged. She handled him very well. She is trustworthy and takes her job seriously. We recommend her to everyone!"
