Meet Samantha

I'm a mother myself as well as an EMT and nursing school graduate. I have an adult son with Autism, whom I cared for all his needs and services. I have been a babysitter for children from newborn to late teens. I am Certified in CPR and basic life support as well as first aid. I am very easy going, love caring for children and like to be very involved in their activities. I do not sit on the side lines watching them! Back in the late 1990's I also worked for Parents as teachers which involved working in people's homes with their children ( ages newborn to three) to assist them in any issues they were struggling with.
