Hi, I’m Amanda. Pod learning anyone? I’m a qualified Social Worker taking a career break after 15 years working with children & families. I have experience giving direct care, play, & learning to children of all ages and was an arts and crafts camp counselor at a sleep away camp in New Jersey. I have a deep passion for art history & literature. I lived in London, England for 15 years and traveled through Europe. Prior to covid I was working as an activity programming coordinator at a skilled nursing facility & retirement home. Due to the high risk in skilled facilities I made the tough decision to stay at home for the safety of everyone’s health. My husband is a computer software engineer working from home....I’ll be honest I’m bored. I love children, I’m 40. We aren’t having kids but I love having them in my life and have Read more spare time & energy to help out a local family. I have a flexible schedule and my husband and I are social distancing & wearing masks to keep healthy.
