About Sarah

Experience: 8 yrs

I've been working with children for almost 20 years. I'm a certified Montessori teacher but have taught in traditional educational environments as well. I managed my own classroom for 8 years and have managed afterschool programs and teen groups as well. I am currently in grad school to become a licensed therapist. I have ample experience working with children of all ages (1-16) and especially with 3-6-year-olds. I've studied early childhood and child therapy. My discipline style is kind but firm. My first language is English, but I speak some German, Italian, and Spanish too. When I am with your children, they are my priority. I believe that the early years are some of the most important and most formative. I have lots of ideas for engaging your children in both indoor and outdoor play, cooking, and art projects. I love reading to and with them and helping them with homework. I believe that parents are the first teachers, and so I abide by your methods and your rules.

Sarah was wonderful with my daughter. My daughter is very picky with people and can be shy but within a few minutes took to Sarah. I was pleased to see how dedicated Sarah was to spending time with my daughter. The true test was after Sarah left, my daughter wanted to know when she could come back to be with her. That for me, says it all right there. Aside from my daughter enjoying Sarah, I found Sarah to be prompt, professional, and great to communicate with. Would absolutely hire again!
