My name is Amanda and I have 10 years of full-time experience working as a nanny, personal assistant, and house manager. My nanny experience is with children aged 3-16. While these roles were dynamic and always evolving, some of my responsibilities have included school pickups, homework help, cooking, and doing hands-on activities. These include but are definitely not limited to doing arts & crafts, baking, playing sports, and going on exploratory field trips. I’m a jewelry designer with my own brand and in past roles have even taught the children how to make their own jewelry. I am also a former competitive swimmer, soccer play, and equestrian so I am just as happy to play outside for those who are more sports driven! In all of my roles I’ve been viewed as a big sister which has helped encourage the older kids to get off their phones and be more Read more present. I believe children learn best when they are given the freedom and independence to pursue what interests them. While each family’s needs are different, I always seek to foster an environment that teaches children to be kind and loving, independent, socially aware, and conscious of the environment. Health and wellness are important to me so I like to prepare healthy and organic meals for the children as well. For parents, I like to help make their lives easier by doing light clean up, going grocery shopping, running errands, walking their dogs, etc! *Willing to provide references!
