About Samantha Myers
My name is Samantha Myers (everyone calls me Sam). I am a senior in high school and I have spent many years in my free time taking care of animals, kids and babies!
I feel like I am a great babysitter because I understand how to make kids feel safe, how to have fun with them and how to engage them in activities.
I have been around babies, births, and families my entire life. My mom is a doula and when I was very young I used to go to work with her. I even got to attend a home birth this year and watch a baby friend be born! At home we have a small farm. I have three dogs, a bunny, chickens and a tortoise.
I spend my summers at Camp Alonim in Simi Valley being a counselor and running day programs for kids of all ages and abilities. I know how to care for your pets because I love animals and care for many of my own. My grandfather is a retired veterinarian and I got to go to his office a lot when he was practicing and watch him care for animals. I was taking care of my own pets at a very young age.
Besides building my babysitting and pet sitting company, I love to hike, snowboard, travel and cook. I am happiest when I am out in nature. I volunteer every year with Walk on Water Which is an organization where kids with disabilities are taught to surf. I love helping kids to get outside and feel strong in their bodies.
If I am taking care of your kids or your pets, I will do it like they are my family. Most of my clients have become family to me! Thank you for your consideration and trust!
“We feel so fortunate to have found Sam. During the school year Sam would pick up our newborn from our home, walk to our children’s school, pick up our children from school, play with them at the park, and then walk home with all four of our children. I have the utmost trust in her and have also been contacted by several parents from school commenting on how attentive and caring she is with our children. She has always been communicative about how things are going and I never have to worry. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone who is looking for a sitter who is reliable, communicative, and fun.
