About Amanda
Experience: 6 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello all, My name is Amanda and I am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and Career Nanny. I have five years experience as a private nanny. Additionally, I have two years experience teaching preschool publicly, one of which I was a Director. I have cared for children from birth to 12 years, and those with a variety of special needs. I studied Elementary Education at NIU and Early Education at COD. I follow the Montessori/Reggio Emilia educational approach and apply gentle parenting styles with my clients. I am CPR and First Aid certified for Children and Adults, with additional AED and Choking training. I can't wait to learn more about you and your family! I hope to hear from you soon!

Amanda was a thoughtful, knowledgeable, and responsible caregiver for my 6 mo baby when she cared for H 2 full days and made a huge difference in that time. She came armed with expertise that made H giggle, but better yet sleep! She helped us get him on a schedule and recommended resources and was just generally a great help. And she is just a lovely, friendly person, as well. We were lucky to take advantage of Amanda's amazing skills and friendly demeanor while her regular family was on spring break.
