A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Amanda, and I’m a senior at the University of Utah studying Human Development and Family Studies. Most of my childcare experience has been with children ages 3 and up, but I’m also open to caring for infants and younger kids. I’m a quick learner and eager to adapt to each child’s unique needs. Families describe me as reliable, patient, and energetic. I enjoy planning engaging activities, helping with homework, and supporting routines to make daily life easier for both kids and parents. I’m also comfortable with pets, light housekeeping, and meal prep. My goal is to be not just a caregiver, but an extra helping hand who brings peace of mind to your family.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kids active and engaged, whether that’s playing outside, going to the park, or kicking a ball around. I also enjoy planning fun crafts, reading together, and finding creative ways to make learning enjoyable. Games, music, and movement activities are some of my favorites, and I like to create a balance of fun while keeping routines and structure in place.

My experience with special needs children...

I have extensive experience working with children with special needs in a variety of settings. I currently volunteer at a children’s behavioral clinic, supporting young children with autism and behavioral challenges through structured and engaging activities. I’ve also been involved with Aceing Autism, where I helped teach children with autism how to play tennis, focusing on skill-building, patience, and confidence. Additionally, I’ve worked as a classroom aide in a special education classroom and coached athletes with disabilities through the Special Olympics. These experiences have helped me develop patience, adaptability, and strong skills in creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for all children.
