Meet Samantha

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

My name is Sammie, I am 28 and have 10 years experience working with kids. I'm fully vaccinated + boosted, and am CPR certified. I have experience working with kids, newborn-15 years old. I have experience working with multiples, and am comfortable working with up to 3 kids at a time. Some fun facts about me! I have a BA in Art and love getting creative with the kiddos. I worked as a teachers assistant in Spain for a year. My husband and I are national parks enthusiasts; we got engaged in Yellowstone and eloped in Olympic. I love the outdoors and go outdoors rain or shine. My first job was as a lifeguard and swim instructor. I spent my weekend mornings singing wheels on the bus in the toddler classes. My caregiving style emphasizes play, exploration, and creativity.
