Amanda's Tiny Tots

I have about 11 years of experience with children, and this is just in my professional life. I have three siblings with a 7 to 10 year age gap between me and them, who I started watching for my mother at the age of 10 years old. Professionally, I started babysitting for families on the weekends at the age of 15 years old, after I was between 16 years old and 17 years old I began working at a daycare center and I worked here for 5 years. In 2011 I got pregnant with my second child right after my mom was about to have her youngest child. So I decided to quit for the opportunity to stay home with my children and be able to watch my youngest brother who will be 4 years old in July. My son is 5 years old and my daughter is 3 years old. I then began taking families in as well and have been watching these three plus an additional 1 to 2 children for the past 5 years. I am graduating with my bachelors degree in Human Services with a concentration to children, marriages and families in May. I am currently looking for anyone who just needs summer care. We have an awesome summer schedule made, with all supplies included, and I can easily send the calendar over to anyone who is interested. I am looking for children around these ages so their learning skills, motor skills, etc. are all around the same speed. I have years and years of references available to anyone who wants them. Anyone I have worked for has become like family. I am still in touch with children who have now become teenagers, parents and families from when I worked at the daycare and also past co-workers and managers. The two families I currently stopped working for I stay in touch with and actually plan to take a little vacation to the city they are moving to sometime in the fall. We attend each others birthdays and keep in pretty close contact. Its more personal and an overall better experience when we get the opportunity to be close to our families. I do watch out of my own home and do have reliable transportation. I am looking forward to interviewing and meeting the children.
