A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Amanda 😊
This feels like I am filling out a personal add or dating profile haha. I love the beach and music. I will cook ALL the time and really like organizing and running errands.. I know that is different. I will be completely honest and let you know that I am coming back to nannying after being in the dental field for some time. I was working part time as a nanny for a few years before the pandemic but that was mostly just once a week so that we could spend time together.
I have had Covid 3 times and it was brutal. After that I just decided.. I want to do what I love. I looked back at my life and, I love being a nanny. I have taken care of babies, children, elderly people, and people with special needs and disabilities since I was 11. And that is not an exaggeration.
I am the oldest of 7 (mixed family)
I was a preschool teacher, I was a pediatric dental assistant, I’ve taken all of the first aid and cpr classes.
Ultimately though comes down to connection.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Special needs caregiver, specifically for autistic children. Preschool teacher, nanny, caregiver, pediatric dental assist, household manager.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

My favorite things are watching and encouraging children to learn and discover on their own. No matter what we are doing.
I love being outdoors, anything artistic and musical. I love the zoo and cooking. Kids love these things. Dance parties are so much fun and cooking, it is amazing to see how proud they are when they can show off their skills.

My experience with special needs children...

I was trained starting at the age of 16 in behavioral therapy and child development. That is when I started caring for two autistic children from two separate families. I continued my studies and in my work as a preschool teacher did have several children with different ableism’s. I was also a full time caregiver for my elderly step grandmother who had Lewy body dementia/Alzheimer’s and aphasia.
