I grew up the oldest of three with two full-time working parents, so taking care of little people is something I naturally fell into at an early age. I remember the first time my dad was in charge of giving us a bath, but fell asleep on the floor in the hallway outside the bathroom door with a loose tie around his limp collar. I'd take off his glasses, put them in a "safe spot" and would take it from there. I've served children in many forms - a big sister, a summer camp counselor, an entertainer, an after-school activities director, a music teacher, a "craft lady," a nanny, a friend... After leaving the job I moved to CO for (I worked for a music artist manager for singer/songwriter), I'm back in Pittsburgh, PA and committed to an active performance career on weekends while doing something else I love - Taking care of and being inspired by kids. I am known for my high energy, creativity and enthusiasm and would love to bring that into your home.

Samantha was an excellent care giver for my children. She was loving while enforcing house rules and encouragement the kids to exceed expectations. She taught them piano and dance, played sports and read books. She did light house work and cooked balanced meals and snacks. The kids were always showered/bathed and reading or already fast asleep when I worked late nights. She is a dynamic woman and a pleasure to have in our home. She is worth every penny and more because all the time spent with the children was learning focused and I trusted her integrity 100%. I recommend Samantha to any mother who wants her children to be taught and encouraged by example and kindness. She is certainly the best care giver I have ever experienced and I'm sorry to have lost her but she will truly bring blessings to the next family, too. Samantha is dependable, honest, and full of energy. A very rare and special person.
