My name is Amanda and I am a current junior at Virginia Commonwealth University. I study psychology and am aspiring to become a guidance counselor in the future. I have been working with children of all ages for the last 8 years. I started off as a cheer leading coach at 14 for OB Gates Elementary. I coached girls ages 5-13, starting with the younger kids (5-7) and eventually moving up with the Seniors (11-13) as I got older. In between that time I started being compensated for nannying with families. I started off with two 18 month olds and had them until my school schedule no longer fit. I then started working with a church every Sunday with children raging from 6 weeks to 12 years old and still work with this church currently. I also for the last year have been with a family full time working with Read more an 11 year old as well as an autistic 7 year old. I am accustom to being with a child all day, feeding, playing, putting them down for naps, and bathing them. I am also accustom to doing light housework and helping out where I can around them home when children are napping.
