About Amy

Experience: 9 yrs

I've always had a knack for caring for children and a passion for helping them grow and learn. With nine years of experience in childcare, I have honed my skills to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the little ones in my care. My friendly and approachable demeanor helps me connect with children and build strong relationships with them. I believe in open and honest communication with parents and always follow their preferred communication method to keep them informed about their child's day and any issues that arise. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. I love engaging children in various activities that promote learning and enjoyment. I am comfortable caring for up to two children and have experience with a wide range of age groups, from infants through the teenage years. In addition, I am a retired school nurse and have been a mother for 29 years and have raised 3 adult children.

I’ve known Amy for many years, and she is an incredibly caring and responsible person. As a nurse, she has a natural ability to care for others, and I’ve always admired her attention to detail and dedication. She’s also an amazing cook, which speaks to her nurturing side. I trust that she would bring the same level of care and professionalism to any role as a caregiver.
