About Sarah

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello :) I am originally from Red Bank, New Jersey and I am currently located in Philadelphia, PA. I am continuing my education at Temple University as a graduate student in Music Therapy hoping to work with kids. While being in college I have had the opportunity to work with and alongside families as a babysitter and/or nanny. When I was 8 years old, my mother had twins! So right off the bat, I was a helper with the babies. When I was 13 yrs old, I started helping out other mothers in my neighborhood by caring for their kids while they cooked/cleaned/relaxed. As I got older I began working with various numbers of children ranging from ages 2 months - 16yrs old. I took a gap year after high school and was a full-time nanny. I currently work part-time as an after-school sitter while in internship. I am available for occasional evening sitting as well as pet/house sitting. I have references and clearances available upon request. Feel free to reach out so we can chat :)

Sarah has watched our English Bulldog, Pickles, several times while my husband and I were traveling. It was important to have someone stay at our house with him as he can be anxious away from home. Sarah has always been able to accommodate our schedule and even stayed with Pickles later than initially planned due to flight delays. While we haven't been home while Sarah's there, we can always tell when we get back that Pickles was well-loved, happy and comfortable! Sarah also sends periodic updates while we're away to let us know when she arrives/leaves the house and how he's doing. We recently moved from Philly to South Jersey and plan to continue using Sarah as our sitter! Highly recommend!
