Greetings! My name is Amanda, I'm 35 years old and currently a full time employee at a pharmaceutical in Cambridge (working remote). I'm from sunny Arizona, loving the adventure of living on the East Coast for almost 9 years. I live in South End with my husband and our golden retriever. I've been babysitting since I was 13 yrs old and I absolutely love it! I've cared for children ranging in age from 2months to 14 yrs old which also included children with special needs and severe nut allergies. I enjoy the outdoors, running, yoga, walking along the Charles with our pup, and day trips to near by New England towns and exploring the ever changing restaurant scene in Cambridge/Boston. I enjoy the company of my dear friends and family and of course the Little Ones! If you have any questions please feel free to email me. *I do have Read more my own vehicle - SUV (Ford, Edge) ** Flu shot and covid vaccinated

Amanda was a big hit with our 8yo daughter. They had a great time and our daughter enjoyed spending the evening with her while my wife and I had a date night. We would definitely have Amanda again! --Leo and Lauren
