About Samantha

I'd describe my personality as nurturing, attentive, and available. I like working with kids because they embrace life with joy and wonder and I get to help them thrive and engage. I'm looking for a job that builds family and community. I started working with kids when I was 11. I have a masters in elementary education, a background in Montessori education and special education, and specialize in infant development. In my spare time, I like to hike, garden, crochet, and clean. One thing you should know about me is I have a big heart and will always support your kids. It truly takes a village and I would be honored to be a part of yours. My skills include: always being present and comfortable meeting kids' needs, acknowledging their experiences and emotions, and having clear expectations and positive feedback of their skill development.
