Introduction

Hello everyone!

My name is Samara and I'm originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I've just arrived in Japan and I'm looking forward to working and getting to know this beautiful country. This is the first time I've been in Japan.

São Paulo is the biggest city in South America and I simply love living there. It is busy, and alive. I've lived there my whole, except for my 2-year exchange program in the USA.

I come from a big family. I'm the oldest of 6 and we are very close. They have been living here in Japan for 3 years, so that's one of the reasons I've decided to come and live here; because I missed them so much.

I have 2 nieces and 2 nephews as well and I'm crazy about them. The youngest is 3 years old and the oldest is 14 years old. I'm the godmother of Isabella. She is 11 years old now and I've taken care of her since she was a little baby.

In terms of personality, I consider myself very active, responsible, goofy sometimes and I love being around kids. I'm loving especially with kids, but I can be assertive if necessary.

In my free time, I like to spend time with my family and friends, go to the park, go to the gym, go to the mall, play cards, read, watch movies, and study. As you can see, I have many different interests.

As a sitter, I love having fun with the kids, so I'd go outside and play with them, cook with them (safely, of course), watch cartoons or movies( if they are allowed to), draw and color, read books, sing, dance, and play games.

I believe that the first step for a successful rapport with children would be respecting their preferences and getting to know them. That's what I plan to do, when I meet the kids I'll be taking care of.

I have vast experience with kids. I teach English for kids since I was 15. And for two years, I lived in the USA, it was an exchange program called Au pair, and there I took care of 7 kids in total. They were aged between 0 and 8 years old.

I also have a degree in psychology. I graduated in 2018 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.


I'm looking forward to meeting you. Please, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Olá, pessoal!
Meu nome é Samara e eu sou originalmente de São Paulo, Brasil. Eu acabei de chegar no Japão e mal posso esperar para trabalhar e conhecer este lindo país. Esta é a primeira vez que venho ao Japão.

São Paulo é a maior cidade da América do Sul e eu simplesmente amo morar lá. É uma cidade agitada e viva. Eu morei lá toda minha vida com exceção dos 2 anos de intercâmbio nos EUA.

Eu venho de uma família grande. Eu sou a mais velha de 6 e somos bem próximos. Eles estão morando no Japão por 3 anos, então esse foi um dos motivos de eu ter decidido vir e morar aqui.

Eu tenho duas sobrinhas e dois sobrinhos também e eu sou louca por eles. O mais novo tem 3 anos de idade e a mais velha tem 14 anos. Eu sou a madrinha da Isabella. Ela tem 11 anos agora e eu cuido dela desde que ela um bebê.

Com relação a minha personalidade, eu me considero muito ativa, responsável, boba as vezes e eu amo estar próxima de crianças. Eu sou carinhosa especialmente com crianças, mas posso ser assertiva se necessário.

No meu tempo livre, eu gosto de passar tempo com a minha família e amigos, ir ao parque, ir para a academia, ir ao shopping, jogar cartas, ler, assistir filmes e estudar. Como você pode perceber, eu tenho interesses variados.

Como babá, eu amo me divertir com as crianças, então eu iria brincar fora de casa, cozinhar com eles (de forma segura, claro), assistir a desenhos e filmes (se eles forem autorizados), desenhar e colorir, ler livros, cantar, dançar, e jogar jogos.

Eu acredito que o primeiro passo para uma relação de sucesso com as crianças seria respeitar as preferencias da criança e conhecê-las. É isso que eu planejo fazer, quando eu conhecer e estiver tomando conta delas.

Eu tenho vasta experiência com crianças. Eu ensino inglês para crianças desde que eu tenho 15 anos. Por dois anos, eu morei nos EUA, fiz um programa de intercâmbio chamado Au pair, e lá eu cuidei de 7 crianças no total. Eles tinham entre 0 e 8 anos de idade.

Eu também sou graduado em psicologia. Eu graduei em 2018 em SP, Brasil.


Eu mal posso esperar para conhecê-los. Por favor, fique à vontade para entrar em contato comigo se você tiver qualquer dúvida.

Samara is a kind and responsible sitter. She communicates well and promptly. She managed very well with my twin 6 year old boys so we will definitely work with her again. I highly recommend her!

Samara has been babysitting my 3 year old kid since July and we couldn't be happier. She is very kind and calm, but also upbeat and accompany my kids in all her playing which is great since my kid has a lot of energy. Whenever the weather allows she also takes my kid to the playground nearby, which is also great. She has been teaching my kid English and we can already observe great progress!

Susana

[CareFinder Team Review]

Samara is a very active, responsible and sometimes goofy person with a strong sense of responsibility. She loves to spend time with my family and friends, go to the park, go to the gym, go to the mall, play cards, read, watch movies, and study. When it comes to looking after kids she loves having fun with the kids and doing activities such as going outside and playing with them, cook with them, watch cartoons or movies( if they are allowed to), draw and color, read books, sing, dance, and play games. We think that she would be a great match with any family !!
