About Amber

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a former ex educator I am not only experienced with children from Newborn-13yrs, but I've learned to meet them eye to eye as the tiny person they are. I specialize in Montessori play/development as well as creative play, and communication. I encourage young minds to explore and be curious while receiving guidance in the process. My heart lies in the kitchen and there's nothing I love more than learning new recipes for/with my littles. Nature exploration is a second language for me and I thrive in animal identification and exploring the world around us. I believe in the philosophy of trust your feelings and your body, and I firmly believe that every child is equal and important to me. We are all humans going through life the first time, and I handle every situation with this in mind. My pleasure is making a difference in your lives as parents and gaining a tiny friend in the process. I take pride in being the perfect nanny for you, and I cannot wait to meet your family!

Amber has been an amazing nanny to our 2 girls and we're sad to have to let her go (our girls are school age now). She is very creative and came up with amazing activities for our kids. Examples are: 2 presidential elections with campaign posters, speeches and a ballot, spa days with robes, mocktails and snacks, tea parties with their stuffies, a "good behavior store" to encourage chores and politeness, a poetry slam, a fashion show with 4 outfit and accessory changes and daily park visits, walks, chalk art, games, etc. She always shows up a few minutes early and encourages clean-up before she leaves for the day. The girls adore her and any family would be lucky to have her.
