Hi, my name is Amy! I recently successfully cared for two infants. I have had years of experience babysitting my neighbors kids, family friends children and more recently, my niece and nephew. I cared for them as infants and every stage of their development. I have watched them grow and now they are young children that are school age; they grew up too fast for me! I also love animals and the children and I love to play games with our pets and have a good laugh mostly enjoying the outdoors in the fresh air! I enjoy doing activities that spark their creativity and that is where they truly flourish. I am different because I follow the flow of the children and expand on what they are engaged in so as to encourage them and redirect them quickly if frustration sets in to keep our time up beat. The well Read more being and safety of those in my care is my top priority. I look forward to hearing from you!
