Good afternoon! My name is Samantha. I am currently a stay-at-home mom who has kiddos that attend school. My children are ages 17, 12, and 10, all girls. I've held multiple positions throughout my life that deal with children of all ages. Some of the positions held have been: nanny, children's camp counselor, volunteer teacher, certified teacher (grades K-4), and Mommy to my amazing girls. Naturally, I like to pick up the house/keep laundry going/ load the dishwasher in between spending time with kiddos. Though I am a teacher, I do not feel called to full-time teaching during this season of life. I recently became Respite Foster Care certified, allowing me to watch foster children, whether it be for a short period or over the course of days. I am happy to provide my CPR certification (infant and adult) and background check through the state of Texas. I am happy Read more to learn what the needs of your family are and how we can work together to create a situation that works well for your family. Prior to watching your kids, I’m available to chat via phone or meet early. I'm in a suburb of Dallas and have a trip charge if the job is located on the opposite side of Dallas.

I had never used a babysitter outside of my family for my two girls before, so I was quite nervous about trying it for the first time. However, Samantha was amazing and sweet. She sent me pictures and updates of the girls, kept them on schedule, and they seemed to be having a blast! She even tidied up all their toys, which was a pleasant surprise. Samantha also left extremely detailed notes of their activities throughout the day, which made me feel comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I hope to have her babysit my kids again in the future—she's truly a wonderful person ❤️ ! Thank you

I’ve been able to trust Samantha with my 4 kids numerous times now. She is reliable, fun, and can care for a group of kids with kindness and order. She was even willing to learn how to give my youngest a g-tube feeding, which is a huge relief to know someone else can handle that. I would recommend Samantha!

Samantha was wonderful with my 2 dogs and 2 pets. She left very detailed notes on the entire day. She was also very responsive and detail oriented. Made sure all 4 were fed their different foods and medicines correctly. I highly recommend her.
