Becoming an Amsternanny is something I would recommend to everyone! And not just because I enjoy playing with children, but especially because I learn a lot from it. I personally babysit flexibly for different families, which I really enjoy! Besides the fact that it fits in so perfectly with my lessons, I learn to deal with every age and believe me, there is quite a difference here...
Every child also has her or his own interests and hobbies and I enjoy doing something with them! By adapting to this, I notice that the children themselves start to enjoy it more and so the time flies by. That's how I learned to skate for the first time a few weeks ago... An afternoon I won't forget haha!
In addition, it is fun to build a bond with them. They are often hesitant and shy the first time you pick them up from school, and a few weeks later they jump on your neck with joy to see you again! Building such a bond with a child can happen so quickly and I find that very nice to see :)
Finally, every family has their own norms and rules. I personally notice that by adhering to this, it provides a lot of clarity for the child, which is very important. Also for the upbringing and therefore also for the parents, because ultimately I also like to see them (in addition to the children) happy after I have babysat!
In short, babysitting at Amsternannies is fun, educational and ideal! It is nice and flexible, which suits every student and work life :)

Homework guidance by an Amsternanny
May 18, 2015
Every Friday afternoon I guide Robine with her homework. She is in group six at the Montessori school in Amsterdam, where she works a lot individually and in small groups. Robine is very eager to learn and would like to practice some extra at home so that she can keep up more easily at school. During homework guidance

Yes, the 5th test also showed it: I was pregnant with our first child! So happy and so exciting. Fortunately, the ultrasounds and tests turned out to be good and it was time to enjoy the pregnancy. Enjoy and prepare for our arrival

Proud of this tough Amsternanny who is committed to children with congenital heart disease! "After an incredibly educational and special medical internship at Save a Child's Heart (SACH) in Israel, I became committed to SACH. That is why I am organizing a photo exhibition at Roest at SACH in the Netherlands on Wednesday, April 22.
