A little bit about me

My name is Amanda, I’m from Sussex County New Jersey. I have a Bachelors degree in Political Science and during my journey in school, I realized the profound passion I have for childcare. I worked at a local daycare all through school (5+ years of childcare experience) as well as nannied for a family a few days a week. My experience at the daycare and nannying immediately made me realize how much I loved being a caregiver for young children. Watching them learn and grow is truly magical and something I love to be apart of. I have experience with various age groups, the youngest being 5months old and the oldest being school-aged children (10+). I am currently a full-time nanny for a family in Montclair but am always looking for other part-time opportunities to fill out my schedule and gain even more experience!

Shannon H. - Seeking Work in Montclair

Full-Time Nanny Available in Montclair, NJ: Shannon H.

I have a deep passion for making a positive difference in the lives of children. Over the past 18 years I’ve worked as a nanny and in the last 3 years I’ve also gained valuable classroom experience in both general and special education settings. This unique blend of in-home care and educational training allows me to offer not just attentive, loving childcare, but also meaningful developmental support tailored to each child’s needs.
I’ve cared for infants through elementary-aged children, supporting everything from feeding and nap schedules to early learning, emotional development, and play-based engagement. I always aim to make learning fun, whether through story time, games, or hands-on projects.
I truly enjoy every stage of childhood. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where children feel seen, supported, and free to grow into their best selves.
