A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Amirah Savoy! I’m 18 years old and would describe myself as gentle, loving, patient, and dependable. I started my own small hair business in 2023 and graduated high school in early January of 2026, which has taught me responsibility, communication, and time management. I have years of hands-on childcare experience caring for my 5-year-old brother and 12-year-old sister while my parents worked. I made sure they got ready for school, caught the bus, ate meals, completed their routines, and were safe and cared for throughout the day. I also helped with household responsibilities like bringing in groceries and keeping things organized. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where they feel loved and supported. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously.

More About Me

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

In addition to helping care for my younger siblings, I have experience supervising children during family gatherings and helping relatives and family friends when they needed childcare. My responsibilities included preparing meals and snacks, keeping children engaged with games and activities, helping with homework, maintaining routines, assisting with bedtime when needed, and ensuring they were always safe and well cared for. These experiences strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to connect with children of different ages while creating a fun, supportive, and nurturing environment.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing a variety of fun and educational activities with children, such as reading books, arts and crafts, coloring, playing board games, building with blocks or LEGO, baking simple treats, going on walks, playing outside, visiting parks, and encouraging imaginative play. I also enjoy helping with homework, doing age-appropriate learning activities, listening to music, dancing, and having movie or story time. I love creating a positive, safe, and engaging environment where children can have fun, learn new things, and feel encouraged to express their creativity.

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 feel cared for, respected, and comfortable being themselves. It’s about being patient, dependable, and someone both the child and parents can trust.

My experience with special needs children...

In high school, I gained experience working with children with special needs through my psychology class. I would spend time in a special needs classroom helping and interacting with the students. This taught me patience, kindness, and how to understand and support children with different needs and personalities. I enjoyed building connections with the children and creating a positive, caring environment for them.
