About Sara

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm Sara, your friendly, Portland area Elementary School Secretary looking for year round night/weekend work (happy to be a consistent care person for your date nights!), as well as weekday care opportunities during the summer. I have previously cared for newborns up to the age of 14, only children, twins, and up to 5 children at a time in private care. I have also worked as a BHP, camp counselor, daycare lead teacher, educator at SeaWorld Orlando, and performer at WDW. Essentially, I have held many kid-centered jobs because I am passionate about working with children and enjoy trying to educate them about the world around them while encouraging their creativity and imaginations. I do have full background check and fingerprinting clearance thanks to my current position. I am now looking for summer time work for 3-4 days a week, as well as year round date night or occasional sitting. I would love to get to know you and your little ones! Thank you for taking the time to read this!

Sara has been sitting for our 8 year old daughter for almost 2 years now. She is patient, kind, conscientious, and a terrific person! Our daughter learns something new every time she is with Sara. She is also great with our labradoodle puppy that can be a bit overwhelming at times! We highly recommend Sara. :)
