A little bit about me

Hello! I’m a 32-year-old nanny originally from Northern California who has the last two years in Colorado. I have happily called the mountains home for the past two years but home is calling me back. I’ll be ready to start in mid October. I've spent the last four years professionally caring for infants and toddlers, and being a nanny has brought me more joy than any career I've had. I have an Associate's degree in Psychology and am CPR and First Aid certified. I love creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn and play while building strong, trusting relationships with families. I'm patient, dependable, and believe every child deserves kindness and encouragement. Outside of work, I spend my time with my family, friends and my Border Collie, who is an absolute joy. Because of him, I'm very comfortable with animals. My goal is to provide dependable, loving support while giving parents peace of mind that their little ones are safe, happy, and thriving.

"Amy has been with our family for three months, and her impact has been nothing short of remarkable. From the very start, Amy has demonstrated punctuality and excellent communication skills. She is always on time and keeps us informed of any unexpected situations. Her positive attitude and infectious enthusiasm have created a joyful atmosphere in our home, and it is a delight to hear our son, Glenn, laughing and having fun with her. Amy is not just a caregiver; she is an active participant in Glenn's development. She is incredibly attentive to his needs. Her ability to engage him in meaningful play has made her an invaluable part of our family routine. In addition to her childcare responsibilities, Amy has also been proactive in helping with light housework, ensuring that she stays busy even during Glenn's nap times. We are genuinely sad to see Amy go. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her care for their children. I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation."

"AMY IS THE BEST! We have had several nannies for my daughter (1.5 yo) and Amy has been our absolute favorite. She is energetic, responsible, professional, caring, and will love your child like he/she is her own. She was always on time and came ready to play, would research kid friendly activities in the area (parks, story time, etc) and would make plans for the two of them (always checking with me first). We had issues in the past with nannies not engaging or spending too much time on their phones, this was never an issue with Amy; whenever she was with my daughter she gave her her full attention. She also watched both our children ( we have a 4yo boy) for date nights and did an excellent job managing the two kids, dinner, and bedtime. We miss her dearly and I’m happy to discuss more."

"Amy has been taking care of our 1.5-year-old daughter for almost a year, and our experience with her has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, Amy has demonstrated a remarkable ability to connect with our daughter and attend to her needs. Elena lights up immediately when she sees Amy in the morning and it’s clear that they share a special bond. I’ve also been told by other parents at the playground that Amy is one of the best nannies they see. She has become a trusted member of our family who will stay a part of our lives. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine care for Elena's well-being have given us great peace of mind. We feel fortunate to have found someone who not only meets but greatly exceeds our expectations in caring for our daughter. I wholeheartedly recommend Amy for any childcare position. Her positive energy, high emotional intelligence, and dedication make her an exceptional caregiver. Any family would be fortunate to have her as their nanny."
