Meet Amanda
- Comfortable with pets
Hello! I am reposting my nanny profile here, as I'm open to doing babysitting gigs as well! My name is Amanda. I will start with a bit about myself... I am a creative, resourceful, and responsible young woman living in the Seattle area. I have a passion for holistic health, wellness, and art. One of my favorite things is going to the farmer's market, and exercising my creativity in the kitchen by preparing seasonal, local foods. I also love yoga, my dogs, taking care of my growing urban jungle, nature, hiking, mushroom hunting, crafting, DIY projects, pets, travel, photography, and a whole lot more! That's a long list, but I am a super curious and active person. I have had a lot of experience taking care of children! It was my first job at the age of 12-13. I continued to babysit and nanny for a range of ages and Read more abilities through college. I am comfortable with infants, dogs/cats, multiple children, plants, toddlers, elementary school aged children and beyond. I want my work to really exercise my personality, life skills, and bring me joy along with the inherent challenges. I am naturally nurturing and can offer your family my full, undivided attention. I think that children respond well to that. I am also very warm, and love to have fun, as well as teach healthy rules and boundaries. I am comfortable with housekeeping, dishes, keeping things clean and tidy, as well as cooking (one of my true joys!). If I seem like a good fit, I would love to sit down and talk with you in person.
