A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Amirah! I have a true passion for working with children and have spent over 6 years as a dedicated nanny. Caring for little ones and helping them grow, learn, and feel supported is something that brings me so much joy. I’ve had the pleasure of working with children of all ages, from newborns to pre-teens, and I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment for every child in my care. Being a nanny is more than a job to me — it’s a chance to build meaningful connections with families and be a positive, nurturing presence in a child’s life

A little bit about me

I am a semester away from my master’s degree in early childhood education. I work full time but I am looking for part time opportunities. I love kids and fell into nannying organically. I come from a large family, I am the oldest of 4, with nieces, a nephew, and many cousins. I was always the designated babysitter and it made me want to work with kids. Professionally, I’ve worked with newborn to 7 years and personally, I’ve worked with newborn to teenager. I am honest, dependable, and hardworking. I think that communication with the parents is extremely important so that nanny and parents are on the same page.
