A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Sam, and I am a current UC Davis student. I’m a responsible, caring, and energetic babysitter with about one year of experience. I have cared for my siblings, babysitting them every date night for my parents, starting around the age of seventeen. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or creating fun activities. Parents can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and patient. I always aim to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I also wanted to add that I am currently working on getting CPR and First Aid certified.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kids engaged with a mix of fun and creative activities! Whether we’re playing video games, kicking a ball around outside, diving into a good book, or getting hands-on with arts and crafts, I enjoy finding what each child loves and building on it. I aim to balance screen time with active play and imagination to keep things exciting!

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe and positive environment where children feel loved, supported, and free to be themselves. Building trust with both the kids and their parents is key, and I always strive to be dependable, attentive, and respectful of each family's values and routines.

My experience with special needs children...

I took a physical education course with special needs kids and it was awesome. From throwing around a dodgeball and doing yoga together, they were so funny and kind, I definitely learned so much and made great friends.

Samantha O. - Seeking Work in Davis

Full-Time Nanny Available in Davis, CA: Samantha O.

I love being a sitter because it allows me to make a positive impact on children’s lives.
My experience as a sitter comes from my work as an afterschool teacher, where I’ve had the privilege of working with children from preschool through 8th grade. In this role, I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience in managing a classroom, organizing activities, and providing one-on-one support. I’ve also worked closely with children of various developmental stages, which has deepened my ability to address their individual needs and tailor my approach accordingly. Whether it's leading group activities, helping with homework, or supervising playtime, I’ve had extensive experience in ensuring children are safe, engaged, and having fun.

In terms of skills and training, I have a strong foundation in youth development, which has been instrumental in helping me understand the physical, emotional, and cognitive needs of children.
