Hi, my name’s Ayana Amoja. I’m 23 and a current college junior. Throughout high school, I babysat elementary-age children. Furthermore, I worked at a private school working with kids ages 5-14 as well as a part-time nanny to 3 and 5-year-olds, ages 5-12 in a public school setting and with ages 2-5 at two different preschools. I have also been a nanny for an 18 month-year-old and a 1-year-old. I love working with kids. They have made such an impact on my life and I just hope I’ve done the same for them. My number one thing is safety and I will always prioritize the child’s needs.

I have worked in the medical field for 18 years . I’ve changed my career recently to caring for and nurturing babies and children. I have been a Nanny for three years to infants, toddlers and pre-teens. I have cared for my now 3 year old grandson since birth part time as well. I have two grown children. There is nothing more rewarding than giving babies and children love and teaching them through play and creative activities. I’m also a portrait artist, I love being creative and giving children of every age the opportunity to discover and learn and to help instill confidence at a young age. I worked at Newtown High School for five years as a secretary before entering the medical field as a CMA. I also was the CMA at the Birth Center in Danbury for eight years. I am extremely responsible and organized and have a high energy level. I hope to hear from you! Thank you,, Nancy
