Hello! My name is Samantha (or Sam for short). I am a 23 year old Temple University grad looking to help out families who are in search of an energetic, outgoing, loving, and patient babysitter for their children! My first job was at 15 years old as an assistant counselor at a summer camp. I fell in love with the position, moving up the latter and ending up as the head counselor of my program. I went on to work for the camp until I departed for college in 2019. I am an extremely active person who grew up spending most of their time outdoors or participating in sports, so a lot of my experience with children involves coaching. I was a cheerleading/dance/gymnastics coach and spent my senior year of highschool working at The Little Gym as a developmental gymnastics instructor and birthday party host. I have always found an Read more immense amount of joy working with children and hope to bring your family joy and a sense of security that your children will be well taken care of as your potential sitter! I live in south Philly but do have my own vehicle to commute to wherever your family is based! Disclaimer: My main job position is a production assistant/runner for the live music industry! My schedule is never certain and I stay on my toes often until a show gets booked. I currently have a lot of down time since it is “off season” and would love to provide care for your family during this time ☺️!

Very professional and likeable. My 3 year old daughter was obsessed with her.

We hired Sam to babysit our 9 YOS on a Saturday night we were going out. Sam was here on time, and communicated promptly and professionally as needed. She is delightful. Very smart young lady. She hit it off with our son immediately and he looooved spending time with her. We will definitely be reaching out to her again. I highly recommend.
