A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Amelia! I am an undergraduate student at Tufts University in both the Child Studies and Human Development department and Clinical Psychology. I'm from Brooklyn, NY and have years of experience with kids of all ages, interests, and abilities. I work well with children and families, and along with health and safety, prioritize engaging and connecting with the kids I spend time with. I love children and plan to work with them throughout my entire life. In addition to childcare, I play guitar and am a visual artist, know conversational Spanish and American Sign Language, am an athlete, and have many hobbies. I hope we can connect!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I started mother's helping in middle school and since then have been babysitting for many families. I babysit for multiple families in Brooklyn as well as near Boston. Some of those families I have sat for for six plus years.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing many things with the kids I spend time with. Of many activities, I usually find myself doing arts and crafts with the kids, cooking and baking, playing "pretend" and dress-up, and day adventures and trips.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny alongside health and safety is being able to establish a connection with the child or children that is not a parent or friend relationship, but one right in the middle. That is a relationship that is special and unique.

My experience with special needs children...

I have cared for children with autism, down syndrome, learning deficits, and children who need extra emotional and behavioral support. I know how to interact with and speak to children with all levels of ability along a wide range of domains.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was when a young boy I was watching could not fall asleep so he sat with me on the couch in the living room. He fell asleep on my chest with a smile on his face and I did not move until the parents arrived back home about two hours later. I remember feeling so proud that I was able to provide comfort for him, as he was probably a bit worried because his parents were not home. Being able to connect with him, even in silence, was something that I have cherished to this day.
