Meet Amanda

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

I'm a 20 year old college student attending UIC. I have a lot of experience with children because my grandmother owns a daycare in Colorado and for 5 summers I have helped her. I also used to live in Colorado and would help when I lived there as well. I have a lot of patience when it comes to children. I can confidently say that I am fantastic with kids. I know how to change diapers and hold babies. I used to be a lifeguard and CPR certified. I still know how to do CPR. I also know first aid and have great organizational and problem solving skills. I can promise you that I will provide the safest environment possible for your child(ren) and can accommodate to whatever your child(ren's) needs. Many people feel that I am reliable and trustworthy. Whenever I am home from college I work at McDonald's Read more as a crew member. I used to work as a cashier at Dollar Tree, a lifeguard at Rock Cut State Park, and an intern at the Byron Museum of History. As I previously stated, I used to help my grandmother out with her daycare. She has kids from infant - 8 years old so those are the ages I have the most experience with. From the summers of 2005-2008 and 2011 I visited my grandmother and she paid me to help her. I have no problems with cooking, cleaning, accommodating to a child's needs, picking kids up from school, doing laundry, etc. I appreciate your time looking through my profile.
