Meet Amanda

I am the oldest of six siblings, with parents that worked and went to college in the evening, and have had plenty of experience babysitting/nannying and also with household chores and running errands as needed. My most recent babysitting job I was responsible for picking the children up from school, helping with homework, and getting ready for bed. I have also had house cleaning jobs for close friends and family that would love to give me a good reference to help others as well! I am attending University of Michigan-Flint in the winter semester to start my Psychology degree. I love working with kids and hope to in the future with my degree. I have also been a dance teacher for students ages 3-7. I have all the patience in the world for kids and they bring me much joy. My mother is a special education teacher, and from her Read more I have learned techniques that are beneficial to working with children with disabilities. I have a passion for making a relationship with each child I work with and making them feel comfortable in my care. I would love to have a full time position caring for children but will also do part time. I am looking for an opportunity to make extra money while going to college and also learn more about children along the way.
