Welcome to the Wild Roots KC website! I’m Amy, wife, mother to a 2.5 and 6 year old, and registered childcare provider in the West Waldo neighborhood. I was raised in California and received a B.S. in Cognitive Science from the University of California, Santa-Cruz. Shortly after, I was trained in Applied Behavior Analysis and helped children on the autism spectrum improve their social, linguistic, self-help, and academic skills.

After becoming a parent myself. I read a lot and put into practice all of the parenting theories out there. Young children in my care receive a sense of freedom within a patient and guiding environment. I’m officially registered through the state of Missouri as six or fewer and I am currently available to take on kiddos for parents needing full-time, part-time, and drop-in care.
