Hello my name is Samantha, I usually go by Sam. I live in Beach Park,IL, I have lived here for about 5 years. Currently I am a student in college pursuing a nursing degree. I also work at a before and afterschool daycare with children ranging from kindergarten to fourth grade as a teachers assistant. I am looking for a full time job to replace the company I work for now. Although I have worked with kids of all ages, I am most comfortable with toddlers and up. I love to work with children, playing games, sports, doing homework, playing outside, arts and crafts and I am very active! I also spent last summer teaching swim lessons for toddlers. Ive worked with children for about 7 years now and its something I have always enjoyed.
