Montessori-raised and inspired, I bring 15+ years of experience nurturing children through a child-led, nature-based, emotionally attuned approach. 
I'm passionate about supporting the unfolding of each child's natural gifts while guiding emotional regulation, interpersonal communication, and age-appropriate conflict resolution. I create calm, playful, developmentally rich environments where children feel safe to explore and express their inner worlds. 

I use intentional language to support a full range of emotional expression and self-understanding. My background includes private nannying, Montessori classrooms, and nature-based programming. I tailor care to each child's rhythm and interests. 
Comfortable with potty training, baby sign language, and emerging social skills. Families describe me as kind, reliable, and attuned-with a calm presence and joyful creativity. Available part-time or flexible in Grants Pass, Ashland, Medford, and nearby areas.

Sasha was the perfect fit for my kiddo! She has such a welcoming and playful energy that made my son feel safe and happy while in her care. 10/10 would recommend to anyone with children! 

Sasha makes an instant connection with the little ones, they instantly love her! She is truly amazing with the kids, always found fun and creative ways to teach them and is incredibly responsible! I can be more blessed to have her. 

Sasha is everything you could ever want in a nanny: kind, patient, fun, laid back, intuitive, responsible. She becomes a part of your family, and my son still talks about the adventures he had with her. To say we miss her would be an understatement! 

Sasha leads by example, is imaginative and fun, and connects quickly and easily with children. She's always ready with an engaging story or activity. She is also constant in her present, flexible and generous way of setting young people up to pursue their own interests. Sasha very naturally strikes a balance between giving important guidance, gently setting necessary boundaries, and inviting children to trust their own minds. She's relaxed and compassionate, loving and kind. With her steady, even-keeled energy, Sasha has a beautiful skill for calling people in-always respectful and inclusive, thoughtful and aware-no matter what the situation. Sasha recognizes the innate intelligence in everyone. She clearly sees the whole human in every person and embedded within the attention she gives is this message: you are important; your thinking makes sense; you are capable of engaging and participating; and above all, you are inherently good and lovable. What a gift! 

She is so creative, and so present with kids. She inspires magic in little people. She never condescends, and she knows what it's like to think like a child. She is intellectual and has bright energy. She is earthy and fun. She is funny, and sweet, and I trust her implicitly with my children!!!! Hire her!! You won't regret it. There is no one like Sasha in the world. She farms, she gardens, she's athletic and supportive. She's kind, she's full of compassion, and wonder about the world. I love getting lost in conversations with her. I miss her--I wish she was still here!!! My kids miss her too.

Sasha is extraordinary at interacting with children. My son is on the Autism Spectrum Disorder and can connect with him on a level that no one else can. She is engaging and attentive to his needs. 

Sasha is such a professional and so wonderful to work with. She is extremely trustworthy and a natural with children of all ages! In my experience, she always asks really good questions - wanting to know details about the kids she's working with, so she can tailor her work to the needs of those little ones. Because of her many years experience, and intuitive nature, she always has creative and inventive ideas for how to spend meaningful time with the children she's working with - so they feel challenged and supported in age-appropriate ways. I wish that Sasha still lived close to us so that our daughter could spend more time with her! 
I hired Sasha a few times to work with large and small groups of kids, and there were nothing but rave reviews from parents and kids alike! She is also a talented dancer and performer, so juggling, playing, dancing, and being creative are a real forté for her.

Our family has known Sasha for many years and were thrilled when she agreed to be the nanny for my grandson. She took wonderful care of him from the time he was 6 months old until he was over 2, and we were heartbroken when she decided to move to another state. Sasha is one of those rare individuals who truly has a gift for interacting with children. She has a calm, loving demeanor that puts children of all ages at ease. She values  teaching children to be safe, considerate of others, and have good manners. She even taught my grandson to sign! I know how difficult it is to trust someone with your child and I would not write this review if I had any reservations at all about her ability to care for children. I recommend her to you with no reservations whatsoever. 

Sasha is extremely patient and loving and simply amazing at caring for my son. Would hire her again without hesitation, she really enjoys working with children and it shows.

Sasha is a kind, imaginative, warm, energetic, responsible caretaker. The kind of person that can very easily and comfortably enter the world of a child but simultaneously remain the responsible adult you need her to be.  Our children were very lucky to be in her care and we felt very secure knowing they were with her. Any family would be lucky to have Sasha look after their children. 

I have known Sasha for a decade, and she is fundamentally an attentive and caring person, who manages herself responsibly.  Furthermore, she quickly became one of my daughter's favorite people, as she is also tremendously fun. 

Sasha is full of energy! She loves being around children and engaging in play activities with them. She finds ways to teach through the play. I have never met a child that isn't instantly drawn to Sasha. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their nanny!
