Meet Amy

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I I've been a nanny for over 15 years, working with several families. During this time, I've had the privilege of helping to raise, guide, and mentor the children, watching them grow into who they are today. I have a natural ability to connect with kids, and they appreciate my genuine approach and the way I engage with them on their level. I believe in leading by example, coaching, and encouraging them to become the best version of themselves. I'm not a fan of too much screen time-it's more fun to be outside, play games, read, or bake something yummy together. I am a very tidy, clean and organized person. I look forward to meeting you, Infuse joy!
