Hello, My name is Amy, and I have been taking care of children since I was 8 years old. I began my first nanny job when I was 12. I continued being a nanny for the same family, and other families, until I graduated high school and went to college. In college I still continued working with children through becoming a Resident Advisor on campus and working as a Child Care Counselor at the Heartland Girls Ranch in Benson Minnesota. I graduated with a double degree in Child Psychology and Social Work. I am currently on my third year as a Residential Hall Director at South Dakota State University. I am also a part time worker at the Brookings Regional Humane Society, and have been fostering and taking care of animals since I was born. I would love to help others with their time with children, or pets. I currently Read more work a 9am-5pm job, but my nights, and summers are open. I would love to get to know you and your family, child or pet, I promise to give all the love and care I can. Thank you! Amy
