Amanda R.     Age 33      Female      Germantown  - Amber Ridge Circle   Member ID: 22810  Seeking work as a : Nanny or Babysitter or Nanny/Housekeeper or Mother's Helper  Position Type: Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time      Join now for access this candidate's contact details       About Me   When I was younger I helped to raise and care for my three younger cousins from infancy to their teenage years. I have experience with all ages of kids and love being around children I can help grow and be creative with. I was a resident assistant in college which gave me creative ideas of crafts and fun things to do with all ages of kids, even young adults. I like being active with kids - taking them to outdoor activities such as local parks, swimming pools, art shows, or other local events. I also love bowling, which is an activity I find that many of the children I have cared for enjoy also. I am more than willing to help with household tasks - cleaning, dishes, laundry, playroom organization, assisting with pets, and more. I am an extremely responsible driver and take the notion of having someone else's child in my care a serious matter. I am not only a fun nanny/babysitter, but I will be a figure who they can look up to and rely on for quality care. I live in Germantown, MD and am interested in locations that are not more than 10-15 miles away.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Willing to obtain  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status:   Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   8 years experience, 0 references 8 years of caring for children from birth to 15 years old.
