About Samantha

Experience: 9 yrs

I've worked with children my entire life and have been a nanny on and off for the past 15 years, caring for kids ranging from newborns to teens. I genuinely love working with children. I started babysitting at a young age, which led to a job at a daycare where I worked for two years. After that, I nannied for a wonderful family with four children (ages 1, 3, 6, and 8) for a year, followed by a year caring for a 3-month-old baby. I later transitioned to a part-time role with two junior high-aged girls for two years. My last nanny job was for an active family with 3 kids (ages 2-15) and I joined them on all vacations, school events and family functions. Outside of childcare, I've taught swim lessons, coached soccer teams, and enjoy an active, outdoor lifestyle with my border collie. I'm also pursuing a degree in ultrasound and attend evening college classes part time. I'm currently seeking a part-time position of up to 30 hours per week.

There are not enough positive words to describe Samantha. She is the most trustworthy and dependable 20 year old I have ever met. As a mom, I understand the importance of leaving your child/children with someone whom you can feel comfortable with and Samantha is definitely the right choice for any family. She started working for us when our daughter was 3 months old. She would show up at the house with a smile on her face at 6 a.m. and at 5:30 p.m. when I got home from work, she would stick around longer so that I could shower and get dinner started. Whether it was taking our daughter to the petting zoo or helping out with doctor appointments and last minute scheduling changes, Samantha always goes above and beyond and exceeds all expectations. My daughter absolutely adores her and my husband and I could not have survived our first year as new parents without her!
