Hi! My name is Amanda. I am currently a student at College of Dupage and live in Downers Grove. I have been a sitter/nanny for almost 4 years now and have found it to be the most wonderful job as I have always loved kids. I plan on majoring in Education and working throughout the field with many different age groups. I have experience caring for children of all ages and personalities, as well as newborns, twins, and multiple children at once. I am very responsible and have never had a problem with punctuality or misunderstanding of tasks. I also pride myself in being active and creative with the children I work with, and love to play games, go outside, and make tasks like homework and chores fun! I am CPR certified and have a squeaky clean driving record. Feel free to contact me if you are interested!
