A little bit about me

Hi! Amy here. I am a full-time social worker in the field of developmental disabilities who has a passion for animals and the great outdoors. I have done my fair share of travel and I value the diversity this great state has to offer not only in its people but in its landscapes. Caring for others is in my nature, and something that brings me joy. Each career path I have ever chosen has allowed me to do just that. I love kids, and one of my favorite titles is auntie. Spending time with my nieces and nephews is one of my favorite things to do. I rarely pass up an opportunity to make memories with them. I take pride in not just being the fun aunt but the aunt whom they feel safe with. I hope I can provide the same security to your child(ren). While I am not currently certified, I am looking for opportunities to obtain an updated First Aid and CPR certification as this is something I was previously certified in. If you have any questions, just ask! (:

A little bit about me

I am a 61 year old year old woman who has two adult children. I have worked with children all of my professional career. My most recent job experience was being a nanny for a family with a 3-year-old and 5 year old. Prior to that I had two other nanny families who moved out of state. I have also worked in preschools and as an elementary school teacher. I love to take the children I work with on outings in the area. I also love to create activities to bring to the children to help them be successful in their future schooling.

A little bit about me

Hi! I am a recent college graduate from the University of Tennessee. I moved out West in January. I spent all of high school and most of college working at the daycare of a gym. Ever since about 12 years old, I have been babysitting and nannying for all ages. From my daycare position, I have a wide range of child-care certifications. As for me outside of work, I love to do things outdoors - hiking, biking, picnics! I like to keep life creative and find fun things to do with what I have. I was born and lived in Germany for 5 years so I do speak fluent German. I also like to cook and bake - be it tofu "chicken" nuggets, a themed cake or boxed mac n cheese.

A little bit about me

Hello!! I am an 18 college student working towards getting my Early Childhood Education Diploma.
I am here to help busy parents, take one small stressor off their hand so they can work and know that their child is in safe hands. I want to build a relationship with a family (while saving for my first car and apartment) and like I said, make the parents lives a little less stressful 😄.
