My name is Samantha, I usually go by Sam. My childcare experience includes 10+ years of babysitting for children from newborns to teens, full time nannying, vacation nannying and babysitting, 2 years as a pre-k assistant teacher working with 4 and 5 yr olds, 2+ years of daycare experience working with primarily the young infants, 4 weeks to 1 year, and experience as a nanny with up to 3 children. I have experience with twins and larger families, and physical and mental disabilities. I am CPR and First aid trained, and have a background check, and driving check available for you to view on my profile page. I genuinely love working with children, and find that as much as I try to teach them, and help them discover new things, it is usually they who teach me. I am easy going, hardworking, and easy to get along with. I have Read more a pretty open and flexible schedule, so feel free to email/text/call if you would like to speak further, or arrange an interview.

She set an appointment for an interview and she never showed up or called us to cancel. I had to reschedule a doctors appointment for our baby to be home to meet with her. Unprofessional!

sam recently started working with us, caring for our almost 6-month-old boy/girl twins to make our vacation in the hamptons way more relaxing than it would've been without her! i feel like we totally lucked out finding her. if you find her to be available, JUMP at the chance and hire her. she is extremely sweet, easy-going, professional and fabulous with babies. she has a great energy around them, treats them lovingly and handles them with lots of skill. can't say enough -- THANK YOU, SAM!!!!

Samantha babysat for my 2 children while we were on vacation in Myrtle Beach and she was wonderful. She played with them, did arts and crafts and they loved her. I have already recommended her to friends of ours that are traveling down to Myrtle Beach in two weeks. -Kerri M

We had Samantha babysit for us once so that my wife & I could enjoy an evening out while we were on vacation in Myrtle Beach. Samantha was prompt, & only having met her the day she was to sit for us, we were definitely comfortable leaving our 2 kids, 6 & 2, with her. Our 6-year-old daughter said she & her brother had fun with Samantha that evening. If we were ever in Myrtle Beach again, we would have Samantha sit for us once more.
