Meet Amanda

  • Comfortable with pets

My boyfriend and I recently moved to Anchorage from Northern Virginia. We have adopted 2 dogs since we moved here. We have a 1-year-old Pitbull/Husky mix named Gizmo and a 2-week-old Pitbull/Boxer/Rotti mix name Afacan (which is Turkish for rascal or little monster). So far we absolutely love it here! I have been babysitting for about 10 years now. I have always enjoyed working with kids and helping them to learn and grow. While attending high school, I took a 3 year course on Child Development and Care. In this class we had students between the ages of 3 and 5. We were taught how to properly teach these children and how they learn. We taught them everything from there numbers, colors, letters, how to write those letters, problem solving and so much more. That class is what made me want to pursue a career working with children. I plan Read more on achieving a masters degree or higher in Child Psychology. All I've ever wanted to do is care for children and help them receive the care they need. I have experience with ages newborn to 11 years of age. I have had quite a few babysitting jobs and was given the opportunity a couple years ago to be a live in nanny for a wonderful family with 2 children. When I started with them the kids were 5 and 7. That was the best "job" I have ever had. They became my second family and I loved it! If you feel that I would be a good fit for you and your family, please feel free to email me!
