A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sara, and I am a recent high school graduate from Glen Allen, Virginia. This fall, I will be attending college to pursue a degree in education with the goal of becoming a teacher.

I have over 3 years of babysitting experience caring for children ages 2–13, including experience supporting children with special needs. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and build confidence while creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment. My desire pay is 15 an hour, but willing to discuss further.

I am patient, dependable, and responsible, with experience helping with homework, preparing simple meals, organizing activities, and maintaining daily routines. I have a valid driver’s license, a clean driving record, and reliable access to a vehicle, allowing me to assist with transportation when needed.

My experience working with children has strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills, and it has reinforced my passion for working with young people.

More About Me

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

I have several years of experience working with and caring for children in a variety of settings. I volunteered in my church nursery, where I supervised young children, assisted with activities, and helped create a safe and welcoming environment. I also provided after-school and summer babysitting for two boys, ages 5 and 8, supporting their daily routines, planning engaging activities, and ensuring their safety and well-being. In addition, I served as a summer swim coach assistant, helping children develop swimming skills, encouraging teamwork and confidence, and assisting with group instruction and supervision. These experiences have strengthened my patience, communication skills, responsibility, and ability to connect with children of different ages.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Playing games, playing outside, reading, relaxing, arts and crafts, and going on outings in the community.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is building trusting relationships with children and their families. Knowing a child feels safe, cared for, and supported is incredibly rewarding.

My experience with special needs children...

I have cared for children with Autism, ADHD, Mobility difficulties, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment is watching children accomplish something they once thought they couldn’t do and seeing how proud they are of themselves afterward.
