Meet Amaya

  • Physical Therapist
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a 56-year-old woman with a lifetime of experience caring for children, both personally and professionally: as a physical therapist working with babies and children, a foster mother for several years to a behaviorally challenged little boy, and mother to my now 21-year-old daughter. I am healthy, energetic and fun-loving, as well as calm, loving and responsible. I really enjoy and take seriously the privilege of spending time with children! I like to hear what they have to say and think of things to do that would be both educational and fun.

Amaya is very professional and responsive. More importantly our 1yr old really loves her. She on time, experienced, has a sweet caring demeanor, and jumped right in playing with our daughter so I could finish get ready and run to work. Highly recommend Amaya.
