About Samantha

Hi there! I'm Samantha, a nurturing and experienced childcare professional with over 8 years of background as a pediatric social worker and counselor. As a former school-based and private practice therapist, I bring an extra layer of insight into child behavior, developmental milestones, and gentle, trauma-informed care. I'm especially skilled at supporting kids through transitions, separation anxiety, sibling dynamics, and social-emotional learning in everyday moments. I've worked with toddlers through teens, and I'm confident managing routines, meal prep, bedtime wind-downs, and playful learning activities. I value calm structure, creative expression, and lots of laughter. I am passionate about helping children feel safe, seen, and celebrated. If you have pets, I will treat them as family too as I am the proud human to two goofy huskies! I'd love to support your family with warmth, reliability, and a counselor's heart.
