Hi there! My names Samantha, I just moved back to the West Side and I'm so excited to be where I'm from again. I come from a HUGE family I have 15 nieces and nephews and I’ve taken care of them my ENTIRE life. I’ve been babysitting those younger than me as long as I can remember. As I got older around 10 I started babysitting for money and I got babysitting jobs from my parents friends, and my older siblings friends who had young kids. Then word got around town about me, so I was able to start babysitting for community members around the age of 13 until 16 when I started more stable jobs. Then, I got back into Nannying and started with a for a family for the last 3 summers the kids aged from 6month and 2 -3 and 5. I also worked in a youth Read more psych clinic so I oversaw 12 kids from the ages 11-18 which mental health issues that needed extra care from professionals. I’m 24 now and I’ve helped children from New born to 18 years old. I’ve always been around babies and kids. I currently nanny for a family part time so looking for some extra hours. I love being able to say I’m great with them at any age. I’m so excited to hear from you and your family!

Sammie is awesome! She’s great with our little one, who is almost 9 months. Comes in and immediately interacts, plays, and talks to them. Super helpful with light house tasks and taking our baby out and about. Trustworthy, kind, and good with kids!
