Meet Samantha
- Comfortable with pets

I am CPR Certified, I have been babysitting since 2012 (age 13) and I love working with kids! I worked Martial Arts instructor at Action Karate Chalfont for over 5 years, where I routinely taught classes for children of all ages, ran birthday parties, and over the past few summers I have helped run summer camps for up to 30+ kids. I have experience working with children with special needs, and I am great at multitasking! I worked as a part-time nanny last summer, so I am well acquainted with doing house-work/running errands as well. To further gain experience working with children, I recently volunteered at a Pediatric Physical Therapy Center where I learned skills to better talk/communicate with children in ways they will understand and listen to.
