Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 14 years paid experience

Meet Amaris

  • Comfortable with pets

I’m a full time telehealth therapist working from home and recently moved back to the area. I am one of 4 siblings and have been a nanny full time and part time over the years. I first went to school to be a kindergarten teacher :) But found that listening, guiding, supporting, encouraging, and empowering were better served in the therapy space. But I love children (and they tend to love me!) and talk therapy can be rather serious, so I’m looking to play and spend time with your kids to find a happy balance :)
