A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Sabrina. I'm a college student looking for a job for over the summer. I've worked with kids my entire life, from being a full time nanny for over two years to coaching children's gymnastics and babysitting (I will provide a reference from my last nanny job upon request). When your kids are with me, you can count on them being fully engaged and having lots of fun! I love planning activities, going outside and doing crafts. I am open to providing meals, doing light cleaning or working in a house with pets. I also have a car, so I'm happy to help with any pickups, drop offs, errands or anything else that requires reliable transportation. I am looking to work part time, but will have a flexible schedule. Overall, I'm an energetic, dedicated, reliable caregiver that would make a wonderful addition to your household. Please feel free to reach out with any further questions!

A little bit about me
I bring over 5+ years of professional childcare experience across daycare, nanny, and babysitting settings, caring for children from infancy through high school. My approach centers around creating a nurturing, engaging, and developmentally enriching environment where children feel secure, supported, and encouraged to grow.
I have experience designing and implementing activities that promote cognitive, social, and emotional development. I am highly skilled in managing all aspects of daily care-diapering, meal preparation, nap schedules, and maintaining a clean, organized space-while ensuring each child receives individualized attention.
Building strong, relationships with both children and parents is very important to me. I pride myself on clear, consistent communication with tamilies regarding milestones, daily updates, and any concerns, creating a seamless and reliable care experience.
