About Sarah

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, I'm Sarah, and I possess over 15 years of experience looking after children. I've been a babysitter for many families, finding joy in teaching and helping kids learn how to manage their emotions, exploring the outdoors together, and one of my favorite activities: building fairy houses! I've also led and guided a diverse group of children in a natural environment, whether that be an outdoor education school for preschoolers, or taking kids backpacking in the Trinity Alps of California. I ensured safe passage while hiking during times of high air pollution from wildfires, applied first aid skills to brutal blisters, and cooked meals for a group of 10 people over a campfire.

Sarah was an incredible nanny for our 4 year old son for nearly a year. She was creative, energetic, and playful, but also helped him navigate challenging moments by talking through his feelings. She has a wonderful ability to communicate with littles that allows their feelings to come out. She held great boundaries that allowed our son to feel safe and taught him so much about caring for others. She even taught him first aid skills that he still remembers and uses to care for friends. Her knowledge of flowers and plants was especially fun because she brought so many ideas for crafts and activities to our child. Sarah integrated seamlessly into our family and helped during a challenging move and distributive time in our family’s life. I will forever be thankful that we found her in Care.com.
