A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Samara but you can call me Sam. I’m turning 19 in November, I have many years of experience with all age groups of children. I enjoy being around kids, teaching, caring, building relationships. I’m currently living in my first apartment and trying to find a job that I’d know for a fact I’d enjoy, I want to be dedicated to something.. look forward to “work” everyday and what best way to do it then be around amazing, growing, new personalities. Communication is important to me, as well as routine and a game plan so I’ll always be prepared and on time! I would prefer to look after children in their homes to ensure their comfort but I’m willing to welcome anyone that feels comfortable into my home as well. I have no car but I’m saving up for one! No schedule preference and ready to start whenever!!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Painting, drawing, coloring, reading, writing, fort building, arts and crafts, science projects, experimental arts, movie nights, singing/dancing/talent shows, setting up cool indoor adventures (I.E ships and pirates or princesses and magical animals)
Bubble blowing, bike riding, skateboarding, swimming, walks/hikes, picnics, park time, learning about wildlife and how important it is to take care of it. Running around having races, using chalk, jump roping, holahooping, creating a home for bugs or fairies! So much to do, it never ends.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Protecting, teaching, learning, loving, and caring for each and every individual no matter what. Watching over someone and seeing them grow, ensuring that they are happy, healthy, and know how amazingly awesome they are. That’s what’s important to me.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Teaching my first buddy I babysat how to swim felt like an amazing achievement. Making it fun and never scary is important.
