About Samantha

Experience: 10 yrs

I am in Des Moines! I have a long history of caring for children. I started babysitting at the age of 12 for community members, family & friends. My mother was a foster parent so I babysat for her as well as made sure foster children got to their appointments, school, etc. I have cared for newborns up to caring for a 36-year-old disabled adult. I have experience with children whom deal with learning disabilities, autism, and general behavioral issues. I am available for full time care or an occasional sitter need. I volunteer at my church, in the community and coach youth sports (ages 3-16). I have a clean background. I am happy to supply any additional information requested. Thanks!
