Hello! My name is Samantha. I've been babysitting since I was about 12 years old. That makes ten (10) years of experience under my belt already! In those nine years, I've worked with children from ages raging from a few weeks to pre-teens. I've worked with and cared for children with physical, mental, and behavioral disorders including Autism Spectrum disorders. I currently work as a TSS so I have my clearances. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified for both children (infants included) and adults. I love pets, playing games, telling and reading stories, and most of all, I love getting kids to use their imagination! I currently live in Ligonier, but I'm moving to the Johnstown area probably within a month. I'm a UPJ student, so please take into account that during the school year, my schedule will be limited.
