A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sarah and I am a recent graduate from St.
John's University currently living in NYC. I have just over 10 years of experience working with children (2+ years of full-time nannying experience included) and I am certified in CPR/AED.
I am able to assist with childcare, laundry, pet care, preparing meals, tutoring, and any other day-to-day chores that you may need assistance with. Most important to me, however, is that I take pride in developing a strong positive relationship with your children by earning their trust and being both a friend and guardian at the same time. Their safety and happiness will always be my top priority.
I am currently looking for a full-time nannying position (preferably live in) to begin as early as June 2023.
I'm looking forward to being in touch and hearing more about your family and what you're looking for in a nanny! Please feel free to message me with any questions and I am happy to provide a resume and/or references upon request as well!
