I am fun loving very patient and responsible, and the Safety of your children is always my top priority. It's always been a fabulous journey getting to know new families and care for their precious children and be part of their family . I am currently seeking further Full-Time/part time / date nights /overnights nanny work to be part of their family and to continue doing what I love the most .

First, I have an M.Ed. from the University of Virginia, with a focus on children with disabilities. References, police, and a clear CPS background report are available. I am a fun-loving, easy-going, and active caretaker specifically trained to work with special needs, including ASD, Tourette, ADHD, and similar disabilities. ABA trained, and the father of a child with comparable disabilities who is now a successful adult. Most kids love me and are willing to dive in and have fun. My daughter is a lawyer and teaches ethics, and I am especially adept at taking kids out to the mall, local airport, commuter train to the D.C. museums, or Richmond. I have a commercial CDL with a student endorsement, and we go anywhere we can practice calming and behavior, and have fun in various environments. Swimming pools and lakes are incredibly attractive to kids with ASD and extremely dangerous since most can't swim. I specialize in providing survival swimming at the local YMCA. ( I have a membership, and the crew at Massad Stafford YMCA knows me. I have been active as a Big Brother mentor for almost 14 years, giving back to my community. I love electronics, gadgets, elephants, the Mars Rover, the landscape of Venus, and everything about the James Webb Telescope. Many kids love this stuff, too. Some kids can make their bed with help, and afterward, we can grill a cheese sandwich, read a picture book, or watch a video... but not all day! I have cared for a 7-year-old with comorbidities for almost four years and helped potty-train him. BTW, I currently teach middle school reading, am rarely grouchy, and, as a Gemini, remain in touch with my inner child forever. I have extensive experience helping kids with autism and related needs; I might be able to give you a break from the routine without breaking your budget.

Hi! My name is Samantha (prefer, Samie), and I am currently a senior at James Madison University majoring in Social Work with a minor in Family Studies, with a focus in Family Ecology. I have over two years of experience working in daycare settings in both Richmond and Harrisonburg, where I cared for children ranging from infants to 5 years old. Since January, I have also been babysitting for a family with children between the ages of 1 and 7. I am CPR certified, have reliable transportation, and am currently completing an internship with DSS in Harrisonburg, VA. I will be available for summer babysitting beginning June 8!

Children have been such a big part of my life! I love working with kids and I have had so many wonderful opportunities working with them through children programs, my family life, nannying, babysitting, and studying my future degree working in therapy! I am looking forward to working with your family and getting to know you!
