About Samantha

Experience: 9 yrs

I have always been that person in the room that children gravitate towards. I started out teaching color guard to middle school and high school aged children in my area. I absolutely love teaching! So I got a job as an assistant teacher in a daycare and ended up in the infant room. I was so in love, that I got my teacher certification for infants and toddlers. The only thing I don't like about working in the day care is that my time is spread too thin with each child, I would love to spend more one on one time with them! I love doing projects, art, working on fine and gross motor skills and just snuggling them! I did a lot of theater and arts in high school and love putting that towards being fun and engaging while reading and doing dramatic play. I love to get out and am a library regular. I also have food service experience and love to prepare healthy snacks and meals with some help from my little friends. In my spare time I love to hike, camp and kayak, anything outdoors!

I'm not sure I can put into words how incredible Samantha is! She has been our full-time nanny for the last 3.5 years. She started with us when our daughters were 4 months old and 5 years old. She has been wonderful at every milestone. From researching activities to learning experiences that are age appropriate, she has exceeded our expectations. She is part of our family and our girls love every minute with Samantha. They go hiking, do art projects, practice math, reading. She also takes the girls to activities such as swimming and dance. On top of all of the engaging activities, she also meal preps, does the girl's laundry and keeps the play area organized! We will miss her when both of our girls are in school full time.
