About Sara

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, I have been giving care to children 12 and under for 14+ years. I am currently First aid and CPR certified. I have 3 years experience in a camp nursery. I have been a day nanny, after school care and travel sitter as well. I love being outside, so I am always looking for ways to be outside with those in my care and explore nature. I. e. walks, parks and playing outside. I am a voracious reader and highly encourage reading books at all ages. I do use and introduce basic sign language with 3 and under. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Sara cared for our daughter from the time she was an infant until she turned one, and in that year, she became such a steady, trusted presence in our home. She brought so much stability to our days, helping us create a predictable routine that made a huge difference for our daughter. When we started solids, Sara introduced new foods with care and thoughtfulness, always checking in with me to be sure I felt comfortable. I also loved that she made the effort to get my daughter outside for fresh air and playtime. She looked for opportunities for her to see other kids, while always respecting my preferences as a parent. Sara is punctual, dependable, and incredibly caring. My daughter felt at ease with her right away, and we truly felt lucky to have her support during that first year. The only reason we stopped working with Sara was that my daughter was offered a daycare spot at age one, which felt like the right next step for her development. Since I work from home, I had the chance to watch Sara with my daughter every day. She is patient, attentive, and reliable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a kind and trustworthy caregiver.
