"As a babysitter, I have provided attentive and nurturing care for children of various ages, ensuring their safety and well-being while engaging them in fun and educational activities. My role involved preparing meals, helping with homework, and creating a structured yet flexible routine to meet each child's needs. At Bright Horizons, I worked as a teacher, where I utilized my CDA certification to develop and implement age-appropriate lesson plans that fostered a love for learning. I focused on creating a supportive and inclusive classroom environment, encouraging children's social, emotional, and cognitive development. My experience at Bright Horizons has equipped me with strong communication and organizational skills, as well as the ability to work effectively with children and their families."

Amira was a pleasure to work with and we would not hesitate to work with her again. We had two evenings of wedding events in Beacon, NY, and Amira took care of our two boys (9 and 7 years old) during this time. When we started looking for a sitter, she was very responsive to all our messages, and helped make the process easy. She completed the background check immediately, and hopped onto a call ahead of time for a quick interview. She arrived on time on both days. It's easy to see that she likes spending time with kids. I recommend her without any hesitation.
