Experience: 4 yrs
Hi, I'm Samara! I have over 4 years of experience caring for children from newborns to 12 years old, always with dedication and warmth. In addition to my work as a nanny/babysitter, I also taught Portuguese to girls in a non-profit organization, which strengthened my patience, creativity, and passion for helping children learn and grow. I am CPR certified, bilingual, and familiar with the Montessori approach, which allows me to encourage independence, curiosity, and respect in children. I love doing arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, and cooking healthy meals, while creating fun, safe, and educational routines that support each child's development.
I couldn't have found a better caregiver for my daughter and can write pages and pages of reasons I love her. Samara took care of my 20 month old toddler for 4 months. She is reliable and punctual. She fills the house with warmth with her sweet and cheerful voice as soon as she walks in the door. She is extremely kind and loving, suuuper attentive and patient with the kids she takes care of. She is great at going at the baby's pace, which is so important to prevent them from getting frustrated and throwing tantrums. She gives her all from the moment she walks in the door to the moment she leaves, no matter the day she is having. She genuinely treated my daughter as family. She was engaged with my daughter throughout the day and it was nice to hear the continuous conversations that were being had between them all day long. My daughter was always her top priority. There'd be times that she and I would be in a conversation and my daughter would say something or ask for help and Samara would immediately excuse herself from our conversation to tend to my daughter. My daughter has learnt so much from Samara in the few months that Samara was with her (including saying "excuse me" to our dogs as she walks by them lol) The only reason we had to let her go was because she was relocating. Extremely sad to see her go. I would rehire her in a heartbeat.
