Hi, I'm Samantha! In this time of uncertainty, I am here to provide support to your family in a way we can both feel good about. After growing up in the PNW and spending 7 years in Chicago and Madison, I am accustomed to working with diverse family units. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts from DePaul University in Chicago where I studied Theatre, and began my career as an actress. I have 10 years of paid experience babysitting children from infants to preteens. I also have professional experience in Children's Theatre, where I worked alongside kids of elementary and middle school ages to tell stories for families and young audiences. It is a magical feeling to be a role model and empower young people to use their voices for good. At this time I am looking to work with one family, keeping COVID guidelines in mind, to help Read more with childcare and the supervision of at-home online learning families have been now been thrust into. With my education, experience, and temperament, I am up for the task. I know parents are overwhelmed with both working and managing this new way of educating our kids. That's why I am here to help. I can assist with basic math and science, and especially reading comprehension and writing-as storytelling is my passion! Let's not forget the fun! I can also supervise arts and crafts, playtime, outdoor exercise such as bike rides and masks-on walks to the park. I am pet friendly (just ask my dog). I am compassionate, open-minded, calm, and engaged. I believe in gentle redirection, and empowering kids make good decisions. None of us have been through this situation before, but let's figure it out together.

Trust & safety
