Hello. I recently moved to be closer to my family .I would love to continue to pursue my career in nannying . Then I also sometimes random babysit but nothing stable for a few other families ranging from 3 months up to 10 years. Before I moved I worked with a family with 3 kids they were 6,4,2 years old also another family 1,3 and 4 years old. I have lots of references to hand out. I have been a nanny since I was 18 I'm 29 now. I have experience from newborns to age 13 years old.I have worked in a daycare as a teachers assistant in all the rooms but my favorite was the newborns and toddlers as they are sweet and cuddly :) I do many different arts and crafts as we'll as learning games and reading. I am flexible to work over time if needed. I Read more do light housework. If you do something differently then I'm use to doing, I am willing to learn to help your family . I also babysit for 2 other families and one has 2 kids which are 2 and 5 and other family 3 kids and they are 5,4 and 1 years old . I have also worked in a daycare in the infant /Toddler room. I have been a nanny for the past 10 years first family I worked with had 5 kids .3 months,twins 1 1/2 , 4 and 5 . I was with them for 4-5 years and then another family I was with for 4 years which children ages 3 months,3 year old and 5 year old.im totally use to taking care of 3 kids as I do this for a living. I would love to talk further about your post if interested. Thank you. Amanda

We interviewed Amanda to nanny for our 9 month old son, we ended up going the in home daycare route (he is an only child and thought the socialization would be good for him), but Amanda was punctual for the interview, came with a long resume to give me, confirmed our appointment the night prior and followed up a couple of days after the interview. She was experienced and flexible.
