Testimonials

Amanda provides an inclusive, loving environment where we have watched our child thrive and
learn to take risks because she knows she is loved and supported. Amanda ensures that all
the needs of her children are met and does so in a loving, fun and accepting manner. Our
daughter loves all the interactive play, crafts, sensory activities, learning opportunities and the
amount of time that she is able to spend outside at the park and in the backyard exploring with
her friends. Amanda’s passion for exposing children to outdoor structured play such as hiking,
observing animal tracks and nature balances perfectly with the free play opportunities that
children can explore under her care. As our child has grown in Amanda’s care for the past 3
years, we have seen her love for the outdoors grow as well.

Amanda is amazing with so much heart and a caring mindset.  It's wonderful seeing our daughter get excited about going to see Amanda.  She really makes an effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualized way, and is really committed to providing a safe fun and loving environment.  The kids spend lots of time making crafts and playing outside

Our daughter started childcare with Amanda at the height of the pandemic.  During a very stressful time Amanda alleviated any worry we had about sending our child into a shared space with other families.  She is always professional and hands on in making sure these little ones have a great experience.  Our daughter loved going and feels the love with Amanda and her boys.  We couldn't have asked for a better provider to take care of her while we were at work.  Now Amanda and her family are like family to us and we are so happy to continue our relationship into our daughters school years

There are not enough great things to say about the amazing care Amanda provided to my little girls.  She is warm, positive, encouraging, patient and honest about all communication at all times.  I never thought I could trust my children with anyone other then my family and Amanda made me able to leave with confidence that my girls were going to be loved all day long.  The girls loved their days there an often ask to go there on the weekends lol.  We could not appreciate her more and all the ways she went above and beyond for us on a daily basis.  Thanks Amanda!

We have been sending our son to Amanda for approximately half a year now.  It has been a pleasure to watch our son grow and interest with all the other kids attending her program, but beyond that it is so comforting to see Amanda care for our child like he was her own.  She actively inquires about his progress at home so she can accurately provide the best care and comfort for him while he is with her.  We, as parents, appreciate her thoughtfulness to always send pictures and updates as well as ask any questions as needed.  Amanda has welcomed our Brooks into her family home and care and we know he is in great care while he is there.  We feel comfortable interacting with Amanda and she certainly makes us feel at peace knowing our son is being cared for genuinely and appropriately and we appreciate the time and effort she puts into his development and growth

Our son went to Amanda from the time he turned 1 until he was ready for Kindergarten.  Amanda is absolutely amazing and works everyday with so much heart and caring mindset.  It's wonderful seeing your child to get excited for "Amanda Days".  Amanda really makes an effort to engage kids and develop them in a very indiviualized way and pays so much attention to each of their particular interests.  She is really committed to providing a safe, fun and loving environment and we're forever grateful to her for opening up her heart and home to our family
