A little bit about me

My name is Amiah, and I’m 25 years young! I’ve always loved children and have a natural connection with them. Since I was 11 years old, I’ve been the designated babysitter for my large family, caring for siblings, cousins, and friends’ children. My experience spans all ages, from newborns just a few weeks old to teenagers, including children with special needs. I have a soft spot for kids and treat them with the same love and attention I’d give my own.

Growing up as an athlete, I enjoy incorporating outdoor activities to keep children active and engaged. As an artist and painter, I also love including arts and crafts in our time together, encouraging creativity and fun! My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where kids feel valued and can thrive.

If given the chance, I’d love to support your family and provide dependable, loving care to your little humans, making life easier and more enjoyable for everyone!

More About Me

I was an aide for special needs kids, as well as working in a daycare!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in activities that are both fun and educational. Outdoor activities are a favorite, as I love encouraging kids to stay active and explore nature. Whether it’s playing tag, going for walks, or organizing scavenger hunts, I aim to make the outdoors exciting and engaging.

I also enjoy creative activities like arts and crafts, where kids can express themselves through painting, drawing, or building fun projects. These moments not only foster creativity but also strengthen their problem-solving and fine motor skills.

Reading books together and storytelling are activities I cherish, as they help spark imagination and encourage language development. Games and puzzles that promote critical thinking are a plus as well!

Every activity I plan is tailored to the child’s interests and developmental stage, ensuring a balance of fun, learning, and growth. My goal is to create memorable experiences while helping children build skills and confidence.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment where children can grow and thrive. A nanny plays a pivotal role in shaping a child’s daily experiences and development, so it’s essential to approach the job with patience, empathy, and dedication. For me, it’s not just about meeting a child’s physical needs but also nurturing their emotional and social growth.

Building trust is another key aspect of being a nanny—not just with the children, but with their families as well. By fostering open communication and understanding the unique values and expectations of each family, I can provide care that aligns with their needs.

Ultimately, being a nanny means more than supervision; it’s about being a positive influence, a role model, and a source of comfort and encouragement for children as they navigate their world. It’s a responsibility I embrace with my whole heart.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children has been both extensive and deeply fulfilling. As a nanny, I’ve worked with several children with special needs, providing personalized care to support their unique needs. Whether it’s establishing structured routines, engaging in sensory-friendly activities, or offering emotional guidance. Additionally, I worked as a behavioral health therapist for children aged 5 to 14, which allowed me to gain invaluable experience with kids facing challenges such as autism, ADHD, and other developmental or behavioral conditions. I developed effective strategies for communication, de-escalation, and individualized support to help them succeed in their daily lives. These experiences have taught me patience, empathy, and adaptability, while reinforcing the importance of celebrating every milestone. Supporting special needs children is a privilege, and I’m committed to making a meaningful, positive impact in their lives.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I was babysitting a 3 month old and his 3 year old brother. I came over one day to work & the 3 year old was crying when it was time to leave, so they offered for me to stay for dinner. He was the happiest & it made my heart warm.
