Hello! My name is Sarah. I am 19 years old and have extensive childcare experience. I was a children's swim instructor for 2 years and loved creating engaging and fun activities we could do in the water all while improving the children's swimming skills. Communication with parents was constant and I was employed as a private instructor by many clients. I was also employed as an after school counselor and have never had a more rewarding opportunity! There was a large amount of children, so positive reinforcement was key in deterring any disagreements. My specialty was creating exciting and energetic games to play on rainy days spent inside! I continue to babysit and nanny for multiple amazing families. I've spent 4 years looking after one of my families and cherish every second. I've been blessed to be able to watch these beautiful children grow up. ***I do not have references Read more (names/numbers/emails) listed as discretion and privacy to the families and children I care for is important to me. Please contact me if you would like to see references.***
