About Samantha

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been a caregiver for children from newborns to teenagers, for the past 11 years. As a teen, I spent 3 summers as a counselor at a day camp for campers between 4 and 12 years of age. I have spent much time with children with special needs and have been trained to work with children with autism. I have also tutored students of all ages. I am a licensed emergency medical technician (EMT), and am CPR certified. I have a BS in biomedical sciences, and plan to attend medical school. I am great with pets of all shapes and sizes, and have lots of experience with children and infants in the water. Finding fun and creative ways to teach children and aid in their physical as well as intellectual development is very important to me. I am a fun-loving, energetic individual, that cherishes family values and respect. I am very organized and responsible, with ample experience in childcare. I look forward to hearing from you!

Samantha is - well - amazing. She has been taking care of our teen daughter with Autism Spectrum Disorder, is non-verbal, and requires personal care. Samantha has made a difference in our daughter's life. They appear to be friends - which is amazing. Samantha is sweet, caring, loving, honest, timely, trust-worthy, diligent, and engaging. We were blessed to have found her. I would highly recommend Samantha. We hope to utilize her when she is on breaks from school.
