About Sarah

Experience: 30 yrs

I am a career professional nanny with more than 30 years of experience caring for children from newborns through teens. I bring a calm, warm, and dependable presence into the homes I support, with a strong focus on nurturing emotional security, curiosity, and confidence in the children I care for. I love creating engaging days filled with reading, music, creative play, outdoor exploration, and developmentally appropriate activities that help children grow socially, emotionally, and cognitively. I have extensive experience with infants, toddlers, school-age children, and multiples, and I pride myself on meeting each child where they are in their development. Families often describe me as intuitive, steady, and deeply attentive to children's needs. I value strong communication with parents and enjoy becoming a trusted partner in the household. I am CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, comfortable with pets, and have reliable transportation

Sarah has helped me with my 5 kids from when they came home from the NICU - when they aged out of needing care. She would still be my first call if I needed overnight care. She is fantastic at working with neurodivergent kids and adults. She is also comfortable and skilled with kids needing medical care/kids with assistive devices. Sarah is great with keeping kids engaged, active, and with creative play. 10/10 will/would use again.
