Coaches, it’s time to coach the game, not the app! 🏀

🐝 The Buzz: You love the game, the drills, and seeing the kids improve. You don’t love the 11 PM emails about gym changes, roster uploads, or chasing down availability for a Sunday morning bracket game.

😵‍💫 The Sting: Admin work shouldn't be your "second job."

🍯 The Honey: Enter The Team Bee. I’m Amanda, a local basketball mom of two with 20 years of administrative experience and 30+ CNR sessions of team management under my belt. I’m launching a specialized service wing of The Helpful Hive to act as your team’s administrative "Point Guard."

I handle the CNR registrations, schedule builds, and parent notifications in your favorite app (GameChanger, TeamSnap, Mojo, etc.), so you can focus on the court.

✨ Introductory Special: Just $50 for the first session! (That’s just $5/player for a 10-person roster).

DM me to get your team "Hive-ready" for the next session!

We all know that moms are the busiest bees in the hive! Between balancing professional goals, managing complex schedules, keeping up with housework, and ensuring our furry friends are well-tended, you truly do it all. The Helpful Hive wishes all our local Queen Bees a day of well-deserved rest and the happiest of Mother’s Days! 🐝✨

I'm now on Rover! You can always book directly with me, but if you use my code to sign-up on Rover, you will get a $20 credit towards your first booking! This also means you can add a layer of trust as Rover requires a clean background check!

From fresh water and treats to plenty of playtime and belly rubs, I make sure every furry friend feels like royalty while their humans are away. There is nothing better than a happy tail wag to start the day.

No two hives are exactly alike. 🍯

That’s why The Helpful Hive services are designed to be as flexible as your life requires. Need a quick $17 check-in for your cats? Done. Want to come home to clean floors AND a happy dog? We’ve got a "Clean Path" for that!

I treat your home and your pets with the same meticulous care I give my own. 💛 Browse our current service menu and let’s talk about how I can help you "stop doing it all and start living it all."

Ever spend your day wondering if the dogs got out or if that package finally arrived? 🐾📦

At The Helpful Hive, I don't believe in "guessing games." That’s why every single visit includes a digital Hive Update sent straight to your phone before I even leave your driveway.

What’s inside a Hive Update?

📸 Photos: See those happy tails (and smiles from pups like Lucy and Cassian!) for yourself.

✅ Checklists: Confirmation that everyone was fed, watered, and exercised.

🏠 Home Care: Updates on any "Bee Done" add-ons, from a Bathroom Refresh to a Clean Path floor sweep.

📝 The Details: I’ll let you know about the little things, like finding a favorite bone in a patch of clover.

Whether you’re at the office or across the country, you’ll have total peace of mind knowing your "hive" is in good hands.
