Hello my name is Amanda Rivera I have been in the childcare field for about 16 years I have experience with newborns up to youth. Previous year I have been working at a private daycare. I love working with the children and making curriculums for them and helping them learn and grow I am DCF certified in early childhood development I have many certifications that I have mentioned in my profile. Previous to that I was in school for a patient care technician which I received my phlebotomy certification EKG and CNA.

Very good at communicating before hand and while she is babysitting. Amanda watched both of my kids so my wife and I could have a date night. My daughter is Autistic and Amanada had no problem with it as she has had experience with special needs kids. We were running late and she had no problem watching them for longer then agreed. She wrote down every thing the kids did eating changing etc. overall very professional, I would use her again no questions asked.
