About Samantha
Experience: 6 yrs
Hi there! I'm Sam - I have 9 years experience as a private nanny, drawing from my background in yoga, music, nature therapy, and attachment theory. I am a nurturing, playful & grounded leader that children feel safe and held with as I provide a loving presence paired with clear structure. Trained in the Waldorf school system, I focus on daily rhythms and connection to nature. I am a student of Janet Lansbury, who teaches respectful parenting. About my "alloparenting" style: (1) connection & kindness come first (2) outside time is a must ~ nourishing our nervous systems (3) communicate clear, developmentally appropriate expectations and set kids up for success No matter the age: cuddles, play, and room for self expression are universal. Please reach out with any questions!

Sam does a great job explaining to little ones what's going on and what is going to happen. She took our little one on walks down our block and too the park, and played with her in our home. We'd happily hire Sam again!
