Meet Amanda

• Comfortable with pets
• Has a car

My name is Amanda, but most of my kids call me Manda. I say "my kids" because once I start working for a family I fall in love every time, and I consider them just as precious as my own would be if I had any. I am 31 years old, happily married, and used to own my own pet business. Every family brings its own unique contribution to the world in the form of a child and they all have their special quirks. Since my husband is former military we have bounced around a lot. We moved back to Washington from California about a year ago, and I have been a nanny/household manager in Seattle ever since- but my contract is up soon so I am looking for a new family to love. Here is a somewhat brief history of my past experience: During the last year I was Read more employed by a professional family here in Seattle, who has an amazing child with special needs. While in CA I lived near San Francisco and worked for a wonderful, busy family of 4 the entire time. Before moving to California, I lived in Virginia Beach, VA and worked for 2 wonderful families. Each had 2 children that were school age and I adored them! I worked full-time, balanced everyone's schedules, and even ran my own business. Before Virginia, I lived in Pensacola, Florida. When I lived there I was a part-time childcare provider for several different families and also worked as a supervisor in a daycare. Before Pensacola I spent two years as a full time live-in nanny for a family of 6 in Baltimore, Maryland. As a live-in nanny for a professional family I had 4 beautiful kids ages 1, 3, 5, and 10 and they were a blast. I still go visit them! I have my own insured vehicle, a 2013 Ford Explorer that is my pride and joy. I also have a 5 year old German Shepherd and 2 yr old rescue mutt that have the same status as my car, so pets are more than acceptable. I am a very organized and flexible person who will do most anything to help you out. At a previous job I did most of the housework, while balancing the kids and their schedules. I love what I do! I get on the floor and play, love to read to kids, and have a knack for coming up with fun, creative, and hilarious games to play with kids. I am also very loyal and hardworking. I was a 4.0 student, so tutoring and homework help is not a problem, and have a background in music and sports as well. I am able to provide at least 3 references and a WA driving record. I can start working for you starting April 3rd, 2017.
