Hello, future family! Thank you for visiting my profile, I know choosing someone to care for your child(ren) can be difficult and nerve-wracking but rest assure with me they couldn't be in better hands.

I hope you will give me a chance to work with your kid(s) and hopefully help you relax and be put at ease as well.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Amaya Woodland, and I have a true passion for working with children of all ages. I have extensive experience caring for infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and teens, which has given me the ability to adapt to different routines and developmental needs.
In addition to my general childcare experience, I have also worked with children with special needs. This has taught me the importance of patience, flexibility, and providing a supportive environment tailored to each child’s unique abilities.
I am CPR certified and always prioritize safety, while also creating a fun, engaging, and nurturing atmosphere. Whether it’s helping with daily routines, encouraging learning through play, or offering consistency and comfort, I love being someone kids can trust and parents can rely on.
I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills, compassion, and energy to your family.
