Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Seattle, WA: Amy M.

"Amy made a natural connection quickly with our 4 year old son and has been our go-to babysitter for 1 year and a half now. She engages with him and keeps him well entertained. He is not quick to trust new people, so we were ready for her to be challenged. She handled him very well. She is trustworthy and takes her job seriously. We recommend her to everyone!"

"We hired Amy to provide backup care for our 5-month-old baby while mom had to go out of town on a business trip, and she was absolutely wonderful. From day one, Amy demonstrated top-notch experience in infant care. She was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and gave us complete peace of mind during what could have been a stressful time. Because of her, we had an incredibly smooth backup care experience. Beyond her excellent skills with our baby, Amy went above and beyond by accommodating our schedule. Her flexibility and willingness to help us make the timing work exceeded all of our expectations. We trust her so much now that we absolutely plan to keep hiring her occasionally whenever we need some adult time or a date night. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Amy to any family looking for an experienced, reliable, and trustworthy nanny!"

""Fantastic, patient babysitter for toddlers!" We have used Amy several times to babysit our toddler (under 2) and highly recommend her! What I appreciate most about Amy is how deeply she cares about my child's daily routine. Toddler mealtimes can be tough, but Amy is incredibly patient and tries different, creative ways to feed my daughter when she isn't interested in eating. She always makes sure she gets a good nap and a full belly, leaving us feeling completely at ease. She is reliable, and knowledgeable at what she does!"

She is warm, attentive, and incredibly dependable. One of the things we appreciate most is the ease of communication with her. We also love that Amy incorporates German into their daily routine. She teaches them words, songs, and phrases in a fun, natural way, giving them exposure to another language while they play and learn. The greatest compliment we can give Amy is that we are able to fully relax knowing our kids are in her care. We trust her completely, and our children are happy, safe, and well cared for with her. We highly recommend Amy to any family looking for a nurturing, trustworthy, communicative, and engaging nanny."

"I am still working with Amy but I wanted to let everyone know how highly I would recommend her. She has done overnights with my 3 year old special needs son, and then took care of my one week old baby over multiple overnights when I had to unexpectedly go back to the hospital - she handled everything perfectly and is the only one I trust with kids now!"

She intuitively understands our family's needs and consistently addresses them without prompting. Her creativity shines through in the diverse activities she plans, keeping our children engaged and entertained while fostering their development. What truly sets Amy apart is her focus on teaching age-appropriate skills. She recognizes learning opportunities in everyday moments and guides our children with patience and encouragement. Additionally, she takes initiative with housekeeping tasks and, impressively, involves the children in these activities—teaching them responsibility while making it fun. Our family feels incredibly fortunate to have found Amy. She has become an invaluable part of our children's lives and our household. If you're seeking a caring, responsible, and proactive caregiver, I cannot recommend Amy highly enough."

"Amy is a wonderful and caring nanny that goes above and beyond. She has a calm and positive attitude and my children instantly adored her. She is very punctual, responds quickly to messages and always follows care instructions. She has cared for my 4 children under 7 for extended periods shifts of 12-24hrs and overnights. I always feel confident leaving my children in her care and I am delighted to have her as our date night and overnight nanny."

"Amy currently helps us with our baby several times a week. She started with us when our son was 5 months and she does a wonderful job caring for him. I am lucky to be at home most of the time when she watches him so I can see how kind and interactive Amy is, day in and day out. Our son adores her. She does very well with our baby's feeding, sleep schedule, and age-appropriate play. Amy is very atuned to our son's development and is happy to converse with me about how he is doing and any small changes with him that she observes. Amy is a respectful, considerate presence that is wonderful with children but also a joy to talk to as an adult. Her German language skills are an additional value-add. I trust her a great deal and am grateful to have someone like her to care for my son."

"Amy is an amazing nanny as she goes far above and beyond the scope of her duties! She worked with us weekly to provide childcare as well as helped out around the house with laundry, tidying and dishes. Truly a life saver! Her fluency in both English and German is a huge plus for our bilingual household, particularly as we try to encourage our toddler to speak more German — which she noticeably did under Amy’s care. We continue to work with Amy on an ad hoc basis to now and cannot recommend her enough!"

During this time, Amy has consistently demonstrated exceptional childcare skills and a nurturing attitude that has greatly benefited our family. Amy has a natural rapport with children, and my kids have always felt comfortable and happy in their care. She engaged them in creative activities, help with homework, encourage playtime, making sure that every moment is both fun and educational. Amy is also very responsible and reliable; they always arrive on time and follow any specific instructions I provide regarding routines or preferences.

"You would be very lucky to have Amy in your lives. We all love her, especially the kids. Amy babysits our four and six-year-old boys about once a week and they cannot wait to see her and always ask when she’s coming back next . She is such a fun and happy person to be around and she is always in a good mood. She is very creative and always comes up with ideas to entertain the kids, who she is very patient with, considering how energetic our two boys are, particularly our older one who is ND. She is very reliable and a great communicator. There is no need to micromanage her as she is very self-sufficient and great at troubleshooting if need be. There is no hesitation recommending her to look after children of any age."

"Amy helped us with our 3 month old baby girl every morning for 5 hours a day. Although we only worked with Amy for a few weeks, we were SO impressed by her professionalism for communication, punctuality, kindness, and pure connection she naturally has with kids! We look forward to having Amy help us again when the opportunity comes in the near future!"
