A little bit about me
Hi my name is Amy, I am 30 and a Christian. I love working with kids because they are precious gifts. The wonder children see in the world fills me with such a joy. I love spending more time outside and less on the TV. Interactive games is a must. I’m a very neat and tidy person who loves the outdoors, cooking, cleaning, and crafting. I have spent over 4000 hours working with kid for infants to teenagers. I’ve spent most of my life living and working at YMCA camps, where my Dad worked 35 years. My experience working with children has been, Camp babysitter at age 13, Camp counselor, craft Director, before-after school care worker, part-time and full-time nannying. I have never been fired from a Job. My favorite age to watch is infants. For the past 4 1/2 years I have been nannying for a very high functioning autistic boy and will be sadly missed because he is in all day kindergarten this school year. I am hopeful for the next adventure.

"Amy has been with us for over 4 years and has been phenomenal with our son and her daily duties. She handled the daily care duties from age one to now kindergarten and has helped our special needs son fully grow and develop. She took lessons from his pre-school and speech therapy and applied “school at home” to make sure that he was getting additional schooling during breaks or off days. She also found fun activities for him to experience, engaged him in outdoor and indoor play while also seeing to general household chores. She made a special point to find engaging and educational activities outside the home that he would enjoy and give him a chance to be exposed to other children and experiences. She has been a phenomenal asset to our working family and will be greatly missed as our son moves to full time schooling and our childcare needs have diminished."

"Nikki was family. She treated my children as if they were her own and loved them to the fullest. She was always on time and on top of chores and tasks without having to be asked. Nikki was awesome about getting them outside daily and eating very healthy with her. We loved Nikkis gentle parenting techniques and learned a lot from her. Nikki was very active and positive with our kids and a great role model for our kids to succeed in life. We were very sad to lose her when she moved out of state. You would be very lucky to welcome Nikki in to your home."

"Jenean was always very caring, organized and willing to help. Apart from her childcare duties she would arrange playdates, help with school/homework assignments, make and take the kids to doctors' appointments, plan and help organize birthday parties, run errands, make dinner if needed, grocery shopping, light housekeeping, to name a few. My house was always clean and picked up by the time I got home. Very dependable, trustworthy and reliable. She made my life so much easier, and that says a lot, considering I was a single mom with three kids that I was raising on my own while having a full time job with unpredictable hours. I really would not have been able to do it without her. She treated my kids as her own. My kids were so sad when they grew up and no longer needed a full time care giver. We still remain good friends and my kids have many fond memories of their time with her growing up."
