About Samantha

Experience: 12 yrs

Hi! I'm Sam :) I'm just wrapping up my 5th year as a practicing School Psychologist in a local district and am looking to help a family out with summer care. Aside from my professional experience working in education and with kids of all kinds, I have been a baby-sitter and reliable eldest daughter for as long as I can recall. In the recent past, I've provided afterschool care for families which often included play time, games, crafts, meals, pick ups/drop offs, and supervision at activities. I think being a reliable part of the team is important so I strive to have fun, communicate, and support how I can! I'd describe my personality as creative, compassionate, and thoughtful!

Highly recommend!! Miss Sam watched our 2 girls and dog Maverick. We have 2 daughters with special needs (3yo with ASD and ADHD; 5yo with ASD). Our kids had an amazing time playing with Miss Sam, and even asked for her to come back for another visit. My husband and I felt confident having her watch the kids and were excited to hear about all of the fun activities they did together.
