About Sarah

Experience: 10 yrs

I have over 10+ years of experience working with children as both a preschool teacher and full-time nanny. I've cared for children from newborn through school age, helping them grow through nurturing care, structured routines, and creative learning experiences. I'm an arts and crafts fanatic who loves turning everyday moments into fun, hands-on learning opportunities. Whether it's painting, sensory play, or story time, I always focus on developmentally appropriate practices that support each child's emotional, social, and cognitive growth. With a Bachelor's degree in Child Development and Education and extensive experience in early childhood programs, I bring both professional training and genuine passion to my work. Families describe me as patient, dependable, and positive, with a deep commitment to helping children thrive and supporting parents with open communication and consistency

To say Sarah has been our favorite and best nanny to date is an understatement. This woman is highly intuitive and has our complete trust in her abilities not only to keep our kids safe but to show them love and everything else a parent could wish for in their child's caregiver. She has been an incredible presence in our house and has bonded with each of our 3 children so seamlessly. They quickly grew to trust, listen to and love Sarah due to her kind and patient nature. Her experience as an educator shined through in every task she took on. She spoke with intention and we trust her judgement and input implicitly. We will miss spending time with her on a regular basis and look forward to seeing her when schedules allows. I consider her family, my sister from another mother.
