Hi! I'm Sammy! After graduating from Cornell University in May, I moved to New York to pursue a career in human resources. While I love my job, I have found myself missing my true passion, which is working with kids. I have been working with kids since I was 14. I have been a tutor, nanny, and regular babysitter to kids of all ages and needs. I pride myself on being playful, energetic, and silly with the kids, while still having them be able to listen and respect me. I love taking the kids outdoors and going on adventures! But I can also spend the day indoors coloring, playing, and dancing. I have experience working at a daycare and a summer camp and babysitting for different families. I also have experience nannying for a non-verbal autistic child. Throughout college, I volunteered as a Big Sister for the national non-profit Big Read more Brothers Big Sisters and served as a mentor to a local child. I have worked with kids of all ages, ranging from infant to pre-teen. Feel free to message me to speak further! Thank you for your time :)
