A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Samantha, a Registered Nurse with nine years of childcare experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers, including children with special needs. I recently graduated from the University of Miami and passed my boards.
My background includes babysitting, camp counseling, the Early Childhood Academy, full-time nannying, and working as a House Manager/Family Assistant for high-profile and high-net-worth families. I’m comfortable with routines, activities, school pickups, meal prep, errands, travel, pet care, and helping busy households run smoothly.
I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. Since I work as an RN three days a week, I’m looking for flexible, part-time, date-night, occasional, or as-needed childcare and would love to be someone a family can truly rely on.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

During high school, I was an active participant in the early childhood academy, where I gained a solid foundation in child development and education. Over the course of four years, I dedicated my time to volunteering as a companion for special needs children, fostering a sense of empathy and understanding.

My journey continued as I spent five rewarding years as a camp counselor in a summer camp, engaging with kids of various ages and backgrounds. This experience allowed me to develop strong communication and leadership skills while creating memorable and enjoyable experiences for the campers.

Presently, I'm thrilled to be a private nanny catering to the needs of infants, toddlers, children, and teenagers. With a diverse skill set and a genuine love for fostering growth and well-being in young minds, I'm committed to providing the highest quality care and guidance to the families I serve.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters to me most about being a nanny is the profound impact I can have on a child's life during their formative years. The opportunity to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where children can explore, learn, and grow is both a privilege and a responsibility that I hold dear. Building meaningful connections with each child, understanding their unique personalities and needs, and fostering their curiosity and confidence are at the core of my role. Being able to witness their milestones, from first steps to important life lessons, and knowing that I play a part in shaping their journey is incredibly fulfilling. Every day, I'm reminded that the bonds formed and the moments shared leave a lasting imprint, making the role of a nanny immensely rewarding and meaningful to me.

My experience with special needs children...

I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of special needs children, each with their unique abilities and challenges. My experience includes supporting children with autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and various developmental delays. This exposure has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of individualized care, effective communication strategies, and the importance of creating a supportive environment that fosters their growth and well-being.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One particularly memorable moment I shared with the kids was during an outdoor scavenger hunt. As we were searching for items on the list, one of the children I was caring for excitedly pointed to a "rainbow-colored unicorn horn" on the list. As I tried not to laugh, we all shared a good laugh and decided to create our own whimsical unicorn horn using craft supplies we had on hand. The child proudly wore the unicorn horn throughout the rest of the scavenger hunt, transforming our simple activity into a magical adventure filled with laughter and imagination. It was a delightful reminder of how children's boundless creativity can turn even the simplest moments into unforgettable and joyous experiences.
