Samantha M., Babysitter in East Islip, NY 11730 with 16 years of paid experience

My name is Samantha, My childcare experience includes almost 20 years of babysitting for children from newborns to teens, full time nannying, vacation nannying and babysitting, 2 years as a pre-k assistant teacher working with 4 and 5 yr olds, 2+ years of daycare experience working with primarily the young infants, 4 weeks to 1 year, and experience as a nanny with up to 3 children. I have experience with twins and larger families, and physical and mental disabilities. In addition I have been a certified nursing assistant since 2017, and am comfortable and trained in administration of CPR, first aid, Heimlich, can handle children with complex medical/emotional/social needs. I also have one 10 month old baby girl of my own. I genuinely love working with children, and find that as much as I try to teach them, and help them discover new things, it is usually they who teach me. I am easy going, hardworking, and easy to get along with. I am very confident in my ability to care for children and create a safe/educational and supportive space for them. I enjoy doing crafts/cooking/playing games/ reading, depending on the parents comfort level I also love taking them for walks, trips to the park or other small day trips when possible. I am happy to offer advice or ideas/suggestions, and to proactively come up with solutions to problems, but following and adhering to the rules and procedures and schedules that you have for your children and home are my main priority. I am currently looking for a position or positions where I can take my daughter with me. (I would have backup childcare for days when she is sick or has appointments). I am looking for a minimum of 15 hours a week, all the way up to full time hours. I have a reliable vehicle and am comfortable driving children. I have had background and driving checks run through Sittercity, and would welcome outside background checks if you would so wish.
