Hello families! I’m Samantha, and I currently reside in Worcester, MA. I work as an instructor at a school for children with autism and other developmental disabilities. Before this role, I was a Behavior Technician providing in-home services for children ages 2 and up. I’ve been in the field for 6 years now, and I truly love what I do. Helping children grow, thrive, and feel supported is my passion. While most of my professional experience is in Special Education, I’ve also worked closely with neurotypical children. I regularly babysit for friends and have helped raise my nieces and nephews since they were infants. I’ve also had the pleasure of supporting amazing families I’ve met through this platform. I’m comfortable preparing meals, doing light housekeeping, running errands, and taking children on fun outings. I’m also a huge animal lover, so I’m happy to help with pet care—whether that’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company! If you’re looking for someone responsible, patient, and passionate about working with kids, I’d love to connect. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d be happy to chat or send over my resume. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I’ve worked as a preschool teacher aide, managed an infant room, and provided nanny and babysitting care. I also have pediatric medical experience, giving me added expertise in keeping little ones safe and healthy. I hold many certifications in CPR & First Aid, CNA, CCMA, and EMR, and have specialty care experience in physical, intellectual and behavioral and have completed coursework in early childhood education and child safety.
