Hi my name is Sara, I'm 32 and I'm originally from NJ. I've lived in Chicago since 2021! I have over 8 years of experience in early childhood education. I first started working with kids when I was 19. My mom was in the ICU and and a woman sharing a room with her owned a school. After seeing how I cared for my mom, she offered me a job. My greatest passion is helping children grow and learn and navigate every stage of their development. I am a detail oriented, compassionate, and hard working person. I have experience working with newborns-5 years. I enjoy lots of outdoor activities that are age appropriate and believe children learn through play. I would love to join a family that is emphatic, understanding and values good communication. I value creating meaningful relationships and strive to help others. In my free time I love going for runs, baking, coloring, thrifting and going to the movies!
We adore Sara—she’s our favorite! She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and brings such warmth and care every time she watches our one-year-old daughter. It’s clear how much she genuinely loves children, and our daughter lights up when she sees her. We always feel at ease knowing our little one is in such loving and capable hands.
