About Amaka

Experience: 4 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I've been a childcare provider for over four years because I'm passionate about helping development. I have a degree in human development and psychological services and have taken numerous courses in childhood development. I am creative and imaginative, and am happy to be a support system & safe space. I believe in open and honest communication, so I make it a point to keep parents informed about their child. I follow the parents' lead and make sure that the children feel safe and heard but are also aware of household rules. I'm comfortable caring for two to three children at a time, and I'm experienced in caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm also CPR-trained and certified in First Aid. I am a fitness coach, so that is a big part of my lifestyle - healthy fun living!
