A little bit about me

Hi my name is Amy, I am 30 and a Christian. I love working with kids because they are precious gifts. The wonder children see in the world fills me with such a joy. I love spending more time outside and less on the TV. Interactive games is a must. I’m a very neat and tidy person who loves the outdoors, cooking, cleaning, and crafting. I have spent over 4000 hours working with kid for infants to teenagers. I’ve spent most of my life living and working at YMCA camps, where my Dad worked 35 years. My experience working with children has been, Camp babysitter at age 13, Camp counselor, craft Director, before-after school care worker, part-time and full-time nannying. I have never been fired from a Job. My favorite age to watch is infants. For the past 4 1/2 years I have been nannying for a very high functioning autistic boy and will be sadly missed because he is in all day kindergarten this school year. I am hopeful for the next adventure.

"Amy has been with us for over 4 years and has been phenomenal with our son and her daily duties. She handled the daily care duties from age one to now kindergarten and has helped our special needs son fully grow and develop. She took lessons from his pre-school and speech therapy and applied “school at home” to make sure that he was getting additional schooling during breaks or off days. She also found fun activities for him to experience, engaged him in outdoor and indoor play while also seeing to general household chores. She made a special point to find engaging and educational activities outside the home that he would enjoy and give him a chance to be exposed to other children and experiences. She has been a phenomenal asset to our working family and will be greatly missed as our son moves to full time schooling and our childcare needs have diminished."
