Hi parents! My name is Amani, and I am currently pursuing my second bachelor’s degree in Nursing after earning my degree in Public Health. Caring for others has always been my passion, and working with children is something that truly brings me joy. I love creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I am CPR and First Aid certified, pet friendly, and have a reliable car for dependable transportation and flexibility. Through my healthcare background and nursing education, I have developed strong skills in safety, patience, communication, and attentive care. I understand how important it is for parents to feel peace of mind when leaving their children with someone, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Families would describe me as warm, trustworthy, responsible, bubbly, and easy to communicate with. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful connections with both children Read more and parents and strive to become someone families can consistently rely on. Whether it’s helping with playtime, bedtime routines, homework support, date nights, or simply being an extra helping hand, I always aim to make life a little easier while ensuring your children feel safe, happy, and cared for. Although my profile is newer on here, I do not mind providing proof of my CPR/First Aid certifications, vaccinations, degrees, background, or any additional information that helps families feel comfortable and confident in choosing me to care for their little ones. As someone pursuing a future career in nursing, compassion and caregiving are at the center of who I am. I would truly love the opportunity to support your family and become someone your children feel comfortable, safe, and excited to be around. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile! I look forward to connecting with you

Amani was amazing! She's babysat my kids only once so far and they're really looking forward to when she is back. Amani was patient with a toddler who skipped their nap and managed a preschooler at the same time. She needed no instructions on what the kids would need and did a wonderful job with both! It was easy to work with her. In the bit of time she had, she cleaned the kitchen for us too. I really appreciated her going above and beyond. The way she interacted with us and with kids, she was able to build trust with us just in a meet & greet and one babysitting session. Given my experience, I would 100% recommend her.
