Hello everyone! I'm Sam, I recently transferred to UCLA from Santa Barbara City College. I started babysitting when I was 13, and I've loved it ever since! I had several families I regularly sat for while I was in junior high/high school, and I volunteered as a camp counselor for most of my summers during high school as well. I have experience with all age groups, including preteens/teens. While I was at CC, I was working as a part time nanny, getting my associates degrees, and volunteering as a YoungLife leader at a local high school. I have worked with children who are special needs and need routine, but I've also worked for more relaxed families whose kids are up for anything! I'm very fun and energetic, I love going outside and exploring and doing activities/crafts with kids. I'm also very patient, I enjoy teaching children new ideas, answering their questions and helping them grow! Caring for children is most meaningful thing I've ever done!

Sam has been such a gift to our family. She cared for my daughter from the ages of 1-3 years old. Sam was the babysitter/nanny we always dreamed of. Our daughter loves her. Sam taught her so much and I always knew my girl was safe, supported and loved! Plus, she's so much fun and connects with kids on their level. We consider Sam family and can't say enough good things. We are forever grateful to have Sam in our lives.
