Sam has been caring for both my kids since they were 18 months old (now 4 and 6). She’s more than a caregiver, she’s an educator that is actively involved in the development and well being of all kids within her sphere. She engages in activities that create genuine connection with kids. What makes Sam a truly unique caregiver, is her ability to connect with parents about their children. She sees the good in children and has made me a better parent in her support + care for our family
