Hi families! My name is Samantha and I'm a 21 year old local college student at UCSC, studying cognitive science and psychology. I am currently looking ahead and am hoping to find a family to babysit or nanny over the summer! I have over five years of experience working with kids, both in babysitting and day camp settings. I have experience with a wide variety of different ages, from four months to working with 15 year olds. I love finding new activites to do with kids and new ways to have fun, whether it be doing crafts, going on a nature adventure, or playing games together! Additionally, I am first aid and CPR certified. I would love to be an asset to your family, so let's get in touch!
