About Amanda
Experience: 15 yrs
As someone with 15 years of experience as a childcare provider, I'm passionate about fostering children's development. My calm, creative, and friendly nature allows me to connect with children easily. I'm dedicated to open communication with parents and enforce household rules with ease. From outdoor games to educational activities, I strive to make learning fun. With a background in Early Childhood Education, I'm certified in First Aid and CPR, and have experience working with special needs children. I'm also happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, and supervising swimming. Whether it's teaching your child to swim or helping them discover their passions, I'm committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment where your child can thrive.

It is with great satisfaction that I recommend Amanda O. as a babysitter. She has been working for us since August 2014. She watches my two children (ages 5 and 8) two - four times a week over the school year and summer breaks and it has been a pleasure to have her services at my home. Amanda proves herself as a reliable and trustworthy babysitter. She always comes to our home on time, smiling and ready to keep the children with creative art, dramatic play and other educational and constructive activities. She is gifted, kind and a great listener. My kids love Amanda, and look forward to spend their time with her. She always followed our instructions regarding homework, food, activities and the like for children and they respect her as a last word figure. In addition to her gifted skills in babysitting, Amanda is a student at El Camino College. We are very encouraging of her schedule to pursue a degree. By hiring Amanda O., you can be confident that you will not employ a young adult who lounges around watching TV whilst your kids take care of themselves. Amanda is fun, and any family unit that hires her has very opportune children in fact.
