I am an experienced babysitter with over 10 years of babysitting experience. Caring for ages newborn to preteens. I have been working part time as a substitute teacher at Safe Haven Babies LLC Day Care in Upper Marlboro Maryland for two years. Per the state of Maryland, I’ve had a background check completed. I have also trained and gotten certified in CPR/First Aid for Adults and Pediatric. During the pandemic I had the opportunity to tutor and help kids while they participated in virtual learning. For a short period of time, I also had the chance to assist as a volunteer at an Assisted living facility. I do light house keeping, along with cooking and can run necessary errands. I have reliable transportation. What I look forward to the most is helping out parents when they need an extra hand or simply needing a break from their everyday parenting life. For my pet lovers, I have experience with caring for household pets. I hope to eventually become bilingual and learn American Sign Language.

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for in a safe and positive environment. I’ve always valued building meaningful connections, and working with kids allows me to bring patience, creativity, and empathy into each day. I love creating calm, structured environments where kids can feel safe and have fun! I have professional experience supporting individuals with different needs through my work as a Direct Support Professional, which required a lot of patience, communication, and responsibility — skills that translate very well into childcare. Outside of that, I’ve helped care for younger relatives and family friends’ children, handling routines like meals, playtime, and bedtime. I’m comfortable creating engaging, age-appropriate activities and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I’m trained in providing direct care and support, including de-escalation, active listening, maintaining safety, and medication administration . I’m also very organized and attentive, which helps with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. My experience as a DSP helped me build strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have my CPR and First Aid certification.

Bonjour! I’m a proud St. Lucian with a big heart and a passion for babysitting that blossomed when I was just 11 years old. Growing up, I helped raise my three younger siblings, who were born more than a decade after me. Those early experiences taught me patience, empathy, and how to guide little ones through every stage. From first steps to singing/sporty personalities. Watching them grow into their own identities lit a fire in me to support other children in the same way. Over the years, I’ve continued to babysit younger cousins and family friends, giving me hands-on experience with kids of various ages whenever I have time with my technical wiritng positon. I naturally gravitate toward creating a nurturing, positive environment where children feel safe, heard, and empowered. I'm especially proud of teaching manners in fun, memorable ways, and I bring calm energy and warm encouragement to every interaction. Whether we’re playing games, learning something new, or just having silly moments, I’m there with love, laughter, and genuine care.

Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a former special education teacher with over 6 years of classroom experience, and these days I focus on supporting children and families more personally, one-on-one. Working with kids has always been my passion—I love getting to know each child’s unique personality, learning style, and interests, and finding ways to help them grow while having fun along the way. With a mix of academic support, creative play, and positive structure, I enjoy everything from homework help and tutoring to arts and crafts, games, and hands-on activities that spark curiosity. I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages and abilities, and I bring patience, empathy, and consistency to every interaction. Families often tell me they appreciate my kindness, reliability, and clear communication, as well as the balance of structure and play I provide. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids feel supported, confident, and free to be themselves. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your child with care, encourage their growth, and make the day a little brighter, I’d love to connect with you!

I previously taught 8th grade for a year and a half, working with students who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autism.
