Hi, I’m Samantha!
I’m a career nanny with over five years of experience caring for children from infancy through the teenage years. While much of my professional experience has been with infants and toddlers, I genuinely enjoy working with children of all ages and adapting my approach to each stage of development.
My approach is warm, engaging, and developmentally focused. I believe children learn best through hands-on experiences, whether that’s reading books together, exploring nature, creating art projects, building forts, baking, working on homework, or simply talking through everyday routines. I spend a lot of time actively engaging with the children in my care, encouraging curiosity, confidence, creativity, and age-appropriate independence.
I love getting children outside whenever possible. Some of my favorite activities include neighborhood walks, trips to the park or zoo, sensory play, arts and crafts, music, outdoor adventures, and exploring the world through play. With older children, I enjoy supporting their interests, encouraging problem-solving skills, and helping them develop confidence and responsibility.
I am fluent in English and Spanish, CPR and First Aid certified, and hold a Bachelor’s Degree from Elmhurst University. Families often describe me as dependable, calm, communicative, and genuinely invested in their children’s well-being and development.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children feel loved, respected, and encouraged to learn, grow, and enjoy being kids.
