Your infant, your child, is unique. That uniqueness is what fuels my passion for childcare. I love learning and discovering each child's personality, likes, dislikes, interests, curiosity, eventually hobbies and passions. For me it's fun to engage with a child based on those unique qualities. I have extensive experience with infants, even twins, and I'm a former high school/middle school teacher, so I have experience with older kids, too. My education experience has made me especially adept at interesting kids in outdoor and non-screen activities. Both my grad and undergrad degrees were in English, and I've taught English, ESL (English as a Second Language), and Spanish. I enjoy tutoring and am willing to help children with homework if desired. Currently a Special Ed teaching assistant, I do have some experience with children with special needs though am not certified. I am willing to provide care for children with special needs when parents feel I'm a good fit for their child. Recently re-certified in CPR and First Aid, I am up to date on Covid vaccinations/boosters and am an excellent driver. If I sound like I may be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you! Best regards, Liz

Hello, my name is Samantha Berard! I'm 30 years old and I currently live in Pawtucket Rhode Island. I studied Early Childhood and Elementary Education at Rhode Island College and also took a few classes at Fisher College. While I was in college, I nannied for a family of four children that were all under the age of 10- which was a blast! For the past 8 years I've worked at an Early Learning Center in North Attleboro. I am a preschool and infant/toddler certified teacher. I am also CPR and first aid certified. I am very passionate about working with children and the impression that I leave on them. I try my best to make every day a positive and fun experience for the children. I would use the words patient, engaging, and compassionate to describe how I interact with children. I'm very familiar with age appropriate activities for all age groups and I enjoy thinking of creative ways they can learn and grow. I do own my own reliable car. I also am willing to help with any household services that would be needed. I'm also a pet lover and very comfortable with being around animals! Thank you so much for your time and please feel free to contact me!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. My name is Samantha. I possess a unique set of skills and experience, that I am hoping will help your family thrive! I spent 18yrs as an RN in charge of a very busy medical/surgical unit. I left that career in 2021 ,and worked as a full time Nanny for infant Triplets. That was the best decision I have ever made. “the opportunity of a lifetime” I provided care for identical triplet boys age 6mos until they were pre-school ready this year. I spent a total of 5yrs with this family, 2 full-time working parents. I I view my role as an extension or team mate to parents. Learning their parenting style and expectations, allow consistency for the child. , Whether gentle parenting, or any style I firmly believe honoring each families parenting style is essential. Prior to my Nursing career I Nannied for a few families, and started sitting at age 12. I have 3 of my own children, now young adults. My love for children has always been my calling. I am passionate about learning each child’s interests, evolving as they grow, and fostering an environment that encourages and acknowledges them as unique people, regardless of age. I formulated a flexible curriculum using play, outdoor time, and exploring as learning opportunities. Speech development and milestones can be achieved in any setting. I found, daily walks brought opportunities to learn about wild life, the changing seasons, to learning their home address. With my last family, we began letter recognition by writing letters in the sand. I enjoy creating a fun learning atmosphere. Safety is of course ALWAYS paramount. I found, once appropriate, explaining why it’s important to be aware of cars when crossing street, or any other important safety issue, that honesty works. Just a brief description of my approach and what I believe leads to a successful partnership between Nanny & Family. I have 2 years of college education in Early Childhood Education. An Associate’s in Nursing Science. CPR certified, including pediatric specific cpr & choking training. Infant-teen caregiver experience. Sleep training, toilet training, and experience with children on the spectrum. If you are seeking a caregiver that is passionate and will honor your expectations, and provide loving, safe, nurturing care for your child/children, please consider reaching out. Thank you!
