A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sarae, and I’m an experienced, compassionate, and energetic nanny looking for a live-in position in Charleston, SC.

I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s daily routine, whether that means planning creative activities, helping with homework, preparing meals, or just being a reliable and loving presence.

I'm currently living in Maine but excited and fully ready to relocate for the right family. I’m looking for a warm, respectful household where I can be a trusted part of the team and help your family run smoothly.

I’m CPR certified, have reliable references, and bring a positive, can-do attitude to every day. I’m especially passionate about fostering creativity, emotional development, and structure in children's lives.

A little bit about me

I love working with children and watching them grow into themselves. My favorite part is getting to know the child and support them to become the best version of themselves. I’ve worked 3 different summer camps as camp counselor and director. I currently work at an after school and summer camp program that I absolutely love, but I believe I could make more of a difference working 1 on 1 and developing a healthy, respectful, nurturing, and strong relationship with the child their family. I look forward to meeting you and learning more about your child!
