A little bit about me

Hi parents! My name is Samantha and I’m a college student majoring in Education with 7 years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for little ones as young as 2 months all the way up to teens age 17. I truly love working with kids of all ages and creating safe, fun, and nurturing environments for them to grow and learn. I’ve worked as an RBT, lead teacher, and assistant teacher, and I’ve also gained great experience at DC Preparatory Academy and Kindercare Learning Center. In those roles, I’ve worked in both traditional and inclusion classrooms, which gave me the chance to support kids with all different needs and learning styles. Those experiences taught me how to adapt, be patient, and make sure every child feels included, supported, and valued. I’d say I’m patient, energetic, and dependable. I love jumping in wherever I’m needed whether it's helping with homework, keeping kids entertained with fun activities, or giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is keeping kids safe, happy, and supported while helping them grow and feel confident. I love creating a fun, nurturing environment where children feel valued and parents can have peace of mind.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience working one-on-one with children as an RBT (Registered Behavior Technician), both in their homes and in clinic settings, supporting kids with a variety of needs. I’ve also worked in classrooms with autistic children, helping them learn how to participate and succeed in a general education setting by giving them the extra tools and support they need to thrive. I focus on creating a supportive, patient, and encouraging environment so every child feels included, confident, and capable of reaching their goals.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny/teacher moments are seeing a child have a breakthrough or gain confidence in their learning whether it’s mastering a new skill, participating in class, or discovering they can do something they didn’t think they could. I love watching kids grow, get excited about learning, and feel proud of their accomplishments, knowing I helped guide and support them along the way.
