Hello, my name is Sam (they/she). I'm a childcare provider with over four years of paid experience caring for children of all ages. As the oldest sibling and cousin, I've been caring for kids since I was 12. I'm comfortable looking after up to three children at a time, focusing on creating a nurturing environment through games, reading, and outdoor activities. I'm patient, calm, and skilled at connecting with children. I'm a student with CPR certification and my own transportation. My focus is on working with queer couples and non-traditional families as a date night nanny, with plans to expand my services to like-minded families. I also have experience with children who have higher care needs and developmental delays, thanks to my patient and understanding approach. In addition, I can assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, and supervising swimming, while ensuring open communication with parents to meet their child's needs.

Sam was wonderful. Our kids had a great time and Sam was game for reading books, building a haunted gingerbread house and anything else the kids threw at them. Sam was a great communicator and had a welcoming, comfortable presence that immediately put our minds at ease as first time users of care outside of family/close friends. We would hire them again without hesitation.
