I started babysitting in the 5th grade, at which point I took a babysitting course and had my first paid babysitting job. I grew up with a personality that took care of kids younger than me naturally, and these personality characteristics never escaped me. I have always been a natural at caring for kids. I later developed an interest and passion for becoming a summer camp director. I have 6 years of summer camp experience as a counselor, a trip leader to kids with learning disabilities and as an Assistant camp director. I hold a B. S. In Youth Development and Camp Management and I am passionate about experiential education and the power of free play. I am trustworthy, patient, caring and honest and would enjoy spending time with your child. I have spent many years of my life trying to build key experiences of growth into kids' lives. I have learned a lot along the way about how to have positive interactions with kids that are healthy and developmental.
Sarah is extremely responsible, caring and willing to the extra mile. She takes her responsibilities seriously. She is awesome with children and takes the time to play with and interact, read with them, teach them. I have seen her bond with children, even ones that are shy or hesitant at first, and they look forward for her to return. She has a lot of experience with children (during camping where she led and taught groups in activities and arts and crafts ) and in college youth development training. She also babysits regularly for my niece, who has a 4 year old and 1 year old who love Sarah. I would be totally comfortable and confident with her abilities caring for children. She is also great with pets and our dog absolutely loves when she visits or takes her on hikes and walks. Please feel free to contact me should you have any other questions.
