Meet Samantha

Hi I’m Samantha, I’m a 19 year old heading into my sophomore year of college at SCCC this upcoming fall. I am the oldest of 8 grandchildren and have grown up looking after many kids at a time, some of which are special needs. I thoroughly enjoy looking after kids because being able to help them in so many ways during some of the most formidable years of their lives is such a rewarding experience to me. I worked at Little Ones Daycare here in Schenectady for a year before going to school. During that time I worked with kids aged from newborn up to five years old, so I have plenty of experience with bottle feeding, diaper changing, potty training, and very good understanding of kids and ability to communicate with them. I really enjoyed teaching them things like proper speaking, reading, writing, numbers, colors etc. so I am Read more able to help with that or any other grade level homework as I’ve graduated high school. I also regularly prepared snacks for the children so I can do so as well as long as I am properly equipped. I’d appreciate and value any opportunity to work with and help children in any way I can so if you’re in need of someone in the Schenectady area, I’m your girl.
