The activities she does with the children varies, but se does a broad range of different activities, such as, Montessori activities, arts and crafts, educational and just recently she planned themes from around the world. This activity was a great success as it was based on bringing in cultural music from around the wotld during circle time. One of her best qualities is that she finds it easy to relate to the parent and the children; children find it easy to talk to her Amanda due to her nature.

Amanda looked after my 22 month old daughter. What I like about Amanda is that she is very friendly, great and honest. She kept me updated as to what they did throughout the day. She s very creative and quite engaged with my daughter. They did a lot of art related activities, took her to the play groups and even made a father's day card. Her ability to engage with the child and what she wanted was great and helped a lot.
