About Amanda

Experience: 15 yrs

Hi, my name is Amanda and I am 35. I am outgoing and like being creative! I am a mother to an amazing 2-year-old girl who I enjoy spending my days with. Caring for children has been a constant for me, as I have always received so much happiness from it. I like to be intentional with my time with the littles with positive reinforcement that encourages kindness, confidence, and love. Creating fun and interactive play that includes learning together is a specialty of mine. I am very hands on and being present is important to me and a joy as our littles are growing into their wonderful selves. I practice mindfulness, patience, and calm. I have my own vehicle and like to do outings to keep the little ones engaged. I have taken many child development courses- "Positive Parenting Solutions" was a favorite. Looking forward to meeting you! I live here in the South Loop, my home is baby proofed from my own toddler, and laden with toys to welcome your little one.

Amanda was amazing with our son, and it was a major bonus that she brought her daughter along for the sessions! They had a great time playing together, and Amanda brought some toys they could share. She was also very sweet and patient when our son got sick for a couple days - but then he recovered and the two kiddos were back at play. Amanda is a very knowledgeable and kind caregiver, would absolutely call her up again if we find ourselves in the Chicago area. Highly recommended!
