I am a nanny with years of experience working with children from the ages of 1 month to 12 years. I enjoy caring for children and bring a considerable skill set to meet the needs of each child. I provide nurturing, compassion, creativity, and problem solving in my care of children. On a personal note, my two kids are grown and I have more time on my hands. With that time, I want to help young families thrive and earn money to surprise my Mom with a large gift.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I am 23 years old. I am a nursing student at SIUE. I have summers off and am looking for a part/full time summer nanny/babysitting position! I was a student athlete at SIUE my first 4 years of college where I earned a bachelors degree in Exercise Science. This past August I came back to SIUE to pursue a career in nursing. I currently work at the YMCA in Edwardsville as a Tennis Instructor during the school year, where I am required to undergo background checks and annual safety training. I have had summer nanny jobs in the Edwardsville area in recent summers and can provide excellent references. I have also been a camp counselor for the Edwardsville YMCA summer camp in recent summers. I am CPR/FirstAid certified. I am very responsible, organized, and reliable. I love exercising and eating healthy. I tend to be more active and like to plan lots of fun activities for the kids! My favorite summer activities are reading, playing tennis, going to the zoo, running, swimming, watching movies, eating snow cones, playing with my dogs, and having fun! I am all about having fun while remaining safe and responsible! I am not afraid to enforce house rules and proper manors when need be! I am willing to do all and any household chores, shopping, meal prepping, driving to and from, etc. I love pets, as I have 2 very friendly dogs of my own who wouldn't mind to tag along from time to time if possible! I currently live in Glen Carbon IL, and would be willing to drive to Missouri. I am very flexible with hours and scheduling. Feel free to message me with any questions at all! Thank you!

I genuinely love being a sitter because caring for children brings me so much joy. I love helping them learn, laugh, and grow in safe and supportive environments. As a nursing student and oldest daughter of eight children, nurturing and being attentive comes naturally to me, and babysitting gives me the chance to pour that same care into families who trust me with their little ones. I find it rewarding to build bonds with kids and give parents peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands. I’ve been caring for children of all ages through volunteer work, family friends, and community programs for several years. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. From bottle-feeding and diaper changes to homework help and bedtime routines. Through my involvement with organizations like DREAAM, I’ve supported children from diverse backgrounds, helped with tutoring, and organized fun learning activities. As a nursing major at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, I’m trained in health and safety practices, including CPR and first aid principles. I’m attentive, organized, and great at communication, which are skills that help me connect with both kids and parents. My background in leadership roles on campus has strengthened my ability to manage routines, stay calm under pressure, and handle multiple responsibilities with care. I also love creative activities, helping with schoolwork, and keeping children engaged in positive ways.
