Hello, I've been a nanny for 10 years in the LIC/Astoria area and truly love what I do. I enjoy structuring the day with a balance of reading, outdoor time, and age appropriate play/enrichment. I'm well versed in arts and crafts, sensory play, and fostering imaginative play. I have experience caring for children with sensory needs, autism, adhd, and have cared for a medically sensitive infant as well. I've worked with two families long term (2. 5 years and 7 years respectively) and I'm currently working a shorter term contract caring for an adorable toddler. I maintain great relationships with each of my families and am happy to provide references! I'm available to start a new nanny adventure Fall 25/Winter 26. Live out preferred but I can consider live in. If you're looking for a nanny that truly values her role I'd love to connect and see if we're a good fit!

Amanda has cared for our two children for the last two years with attention, skillfulness and dedication. She is particularly skilled at helping teach emotion regulation to young children and has a comprehensive understanding of sensory issues. She is unfazed by the challenges that young children can sometimes pose and handles difficult moments with consistency and clear direction. Our children adore her and she has remained an important presence in their lives even as they have come to depend on her less as they have grown. She plans ahead and always has rewarding projects and experiences for our kids. She picks them up from school, schleps them wherever they need to be, does their baths and nighttime routine, including weekly date nights. She handles all of this independently, without need for our intervention or assistance. She will be an invaluable asset to your family as you navigate the complexities and joys of childhood.
