Hello, my name is Amber. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old (19 years). I have experience as a preschool teacher, a rehabilitation counselor, and am a licensed therapist as my main career. I graduated from Johns Hopkins University prior to becoming a mental health counselor. I have CPR and First Aid certification as well as experience with ADHD, Autism spectrum disorder, and behavior issues. Being around children brightens my day and I am always searching for more creative ways to engage with children. I am energetic, bubbly, and willing to go above and beyond to keep your child safe. I have my own means of transportation and am also a passholder for Disney which is where I spend most of my time outside of work. Communication is key between parents and sitters to ensure the child(ren) receives the best care imaginable. My availability is on a Read more first come first serve basis; I tend to request at least 24 hours notice for a gig. If you've read to here and are interested, let me know and together we can determine the rate, duties, and expectations. I look forward to hearing from you! - Amber
