About Samantha

I've babysat since my teens, starting with younger cousins, and have years of experience with kids from infants to pre-teens. I spent 3 years as an English teaching assistant in Spain, learning to engage kids, manage groups, and communicate well with parents. CPR/First Aid certified (renewing now). I love to cook and enjoy helping with healthy snacks and meals. I'm dependable, patient, and playful, bringing creativity and a calm presence to every job. I love working with kids because I get to play a small part in their journey--helping them learn and grow. I adapt to each family's routines, prioritize active play over screen time, and communicate proactively. Outside childcare, I stay active and creative: dance, roller skating, hiking, swimming, photography, and crafting. I'm looking for a family I can build a genuine, lasting relationship with, built on trust and connection. My strengths: experience across age ranges, creative engagement, and safety/reliability.
