Hello!!! My name is Amber, I am 37 yrs young and have two daughters, 7 and 15. I love to draw, paint, design, sew, and more recently, woodworking. I have two amazing dogs and one expressive and vocal cat, so being around and caring for other people's pet(s) is no problem. I babysit children of all ages and have been doing so for over 15 years now. Babysitting is my passion and niche. I have always enjoyed the bonding and building of relationships with each child as they grow. Trust, loyalty and open communication are very important to me when working with a family. I am a planneer/organizer who can put together age-appropriate curriculum and routine schedules to keep your LO engaged and stimulated with fun productive and healthy learning. I have my Associates' degree, CNA license, and I am certified in first aid and CPR. I have my own Read more reliable and spacious SUV for means of transportation in case there is ever a need. I can provide proof of vehicle ownership, valid DL, and insurance upon request. I think that about sums it all up. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to chatting! -Amber
