I've been doing in home childcare for about 12 years now and I am licensed through the state. Prior to my daycare career I was a teacher until I became a Mom! I was also the head of an after-school program for a local elementary school. I've worked in daycares, summer camps, summer school, basically any job that involves children. I have my degree with a certification in early childhood education. I have 3 daughters aged 12 and 8 <1. I started babysitting out of my home 12 years ago and love it. I've teamed up with my sister who is also a stay at home mom and comes to my house to help me out or to fill in for me. Teaming up with my sister has really worked out nice because she's my back up so you wouldn't ever have to worry about your sitter calling off with Read more the two of us! We would treat your child as if he/she were our own. I currently babysit for a few families and looking to find one more! As a mother I know how hard it is to find childcare I've been there, especially trusting someone off the internet. Rest assure being a teacher in a public school I've been fingerprinted, background checked, and have a great reputation from my long term families I sit for! I charge $6/hr or $40/day. I live in Hickory Hills very close to 294 & 55. Please email me if you'd like more information, I'd love to meet you and your little one:) Thanks

Amanda is an AMAZING sitter! She has been sitting for my two kids ages 2 and 4 for the past 3 months. My husband and I are just so grateful to find such a reliable and honest sitter. She is very patient and kind. She truly understands children and their needs. Our kids adore her and cannot wait to see her each day!
