Hi! My name is Samantha (Sam for short). I started having a passion for taking care of children long before I was old enough to have a real job. My mother has ran an licensed inhome daycare since I was 4 years old. I have been assisting her as long as I can remember but when I turned 14 I became her official assistant. I have been assisting her since then as well as working at a few local daycare centers. I am out of high school and living on my own. I have my own car so transportation would not be an issue. There is nothing I love more than helping a child learn and grow. Between play time and snuggle time I don’t know which is better! I am CPR/First Aid certified. I am also a mandated reporter and have taken 12 hours of child care essentials training. Read more I look forward to getting to know some wonderful families and doing what they need to help their child grow. (:
