Hello, my name is Amber. I'll start with my passion for kids, nurturing their growth and creating a fun, safe environment for them is everything to me. Connecting with kids comes naturally because I genuinely relate to their world. Being empathetic helps me understand and bond with them easily. I enjoy childlike activities like playing games and being silly, and I love making kids laugh. Currently, I work as a one-on-one para at Chinook Elementary, where I've been supporting a student since kindergarten. I plan to continue working with him as long as he needs me. My passion for working with kids is immense. One of my favorite things is witnessing their growth and learning. I believe it's crucial for kids to have a safe space and a guiding figure in their lives. I strive to be a positive role model for them. Outside of my work with kids, I Read more enjoy staying active by going to the gym and playing sports – I can get pretty competitive! I also love self-care activities like doing my nails and skincare. Spending days in Seattle, attending various events, is something I really enjoy as well. As a nanny and babysitter, I'm responsible, attentive, and dedicated to creating a fun and secure environment for your children. I'm experienced in handling various age groups and needs, ensuring your kids are not only safe but also engaged and happy. I'm excited to bring my passion and experience to your family!
