About Sarah

Experience: 7 yrs

Nurturing children comes naturally to me, and I have spent the last seven years devoted to their care and well-being. My college degree, coupled with Early Child Development coursework, has provided me with a strong foundation. I am comfortable caring for up to three children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy playing board games and educational games that make learning fun! I'm happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I have First Aid Training, CPR Training, and experience with special needs children. I provide regular updates via text or phone call, and I always follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I speak English, French, and Spanish. Ultimately, my goal is to support your family and provide a safe, enriching environment where your children can thrive, and I look forward to the possibility of bringing my passion for childcare into your home.

Sahara has watched our 1 year old on several occasions during the workday and she's been wonderful. She has great intuition around children and it's evident that she has a lot of prior experience. Our daughter took to her very quickly. Sahara takes initiative (e.g. preparing fun new dishes for our daughter to try), is very tidy, and communicates well throughout the day with fun photo updates. On one occasion, Sahara was unavailable to watch our daughter, but referred us to a suitable substitute who was available - definitely above and beyond! We will definitely be asking her to babysit again :)
