My name is Samantha, but everyone calls me Sam. I am a 42-year-old mother to one spunky, sweet, smart 4.5 year old daughter. I am also a writer (M.A. in Journalism, 2006) and an educator (M.A.T. in Special Education, 2010). I've spent the last eight years first, as a caregiver to my ill father and then, as a stay-at-home mom to my Anne. I've also worked part-time as a freelance writer in that time. Though I enjoyed staying home as a mom and writer, I am ready to begin working with children again. I've missed it more than I once realized. For now, I am keeping some of my writing clients and thus looking for part-time live-out nanny work. Prior to 2014, I worked as an education consultant, a teacher, a teacher's assistant, an ABA practitioner (doing therapy with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder), a nanny, a childcare center worker Read more and a babysitter. I'm eager to meet you and your little one(s). P.S., I love cats and dogs. I have a total of five of my own. :) I'm also a bit of a neat freak. I find cleaning and doing laundry rather therapeutic.
