A little bit about me

Mom of 4, 2 bonus daughters (adults) and once had 2 foster children. Always had a love for children, esp newborns! Worked with newborns/ preemies in hospital as hearing tech. Spent a decade inspecting car seats and working for safe kids USA. Child safety is a priority of mine. I generally work with new parents until child goes off to daycare. I’ve taught baby sign to several. Learning infant massages and baby yoga. Versed in the moms on call book but I’ll follow your schedule as well. I absolutely love reading to children and taking them to libraries across town for story times. Love taking walks in the fresh air and singing lullabies. Ok with pets as I have many and in my spare time I work with training them. Two are CGC certified and ode is close to being a therapy dog. Just finishing my time with my last family and hoping to find a new family to bond with!

"Sarah was fantastic with our daughter. She was our nanny from when our daughter was about 4mo old to 2 yrs, when she started daycare for the socialization aspect. Sarah was very interactive, constantly playing with and teaching our girl. We loved the peace of mind of having her in our home and will miss her greatly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable nanny."

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Mom, foster mom, daycares, babysitting as a teen. Preemie/ newborn hospital experience. Nanny.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading , going to story times at libraries. Stroller walks, playgrounds, sidewalk chalk, splash pads. Coloring.

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me that is safety. I worked in child safety for a number of years with safe kids USA, and A CPST —child passenger safety technician.
After that I would say bonding. I feel like having a strong bond with the child and the parents is very important.

My experience with special needs children...

Have autistic son and brother.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Too many to count. But when they fall asleep in my arms. When they find a favorite song and light up when played or sung. When they can say my name or light up when they see me. And any of the tons of giggles they give over the silliest of things.
