A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Amelia. I’ve been working in various childcare capacities for the last 5 years expanding my experience with ages 6 weeks - 16 years. I started out working at the YMCA 5 years ago for what was supposed to be a fun summer job working with our special needs children within the summer camp program. Through that position, I quickly developed a passion for creating safe spaces to foster a lifelong love of learning and play, and knew it would not just be a summer gig. I have since worked as a nanny with multiple families in long term and short term capacities, as the Lead Infant teacher for a preschool in U-City, and as a Music teacher for ages 6 weeks to 6 years of age in a Chesterfield preschool and Kindergarten, and hold current CPR and First aid Certifications as well as having had training in inclusion care. Ideally, I would love a full time position where I could grow with the family, but am more than flexible. I look forward to hearing more about your family’s needs!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Mary!
I am a St. Louis native, who is wrapping up my final year as a psychology student with a focus in child development this May! From working at Disney world to my current position at St. Louis Children's Hospital and everywhere in between, I am confident in my ability to provide a fun and secure environment for your children!

I pride myself in being attentive and empathetic to the needs of you and your little ones. I understand that every family is unique and that your children mean the world to you, so I work hard to meet and support those unique needs, whatever they may be! I am a firm believer that growth and childcare should be both fun and safe, many of the kiddos I watch even lovingly refer to me as "Mary poppins" as I'm known to bring my "bag of tricks" (toys and books) with me wherever I go. I know the decision of child care is an important and particular one so please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have along the way!
