I started babysitting at a very young age, and worked as a camp counselor during all of my summers throughout high school. Throughout college, I babysit a little, but focused my extra time mostly on reaching out to children who needed help, whether that be because of social circumstances, mental needs, or physical needs. I have always felt very comfortable being around children, and it has become one of my greatest life goals to make a difference in the lives of children all over the world. I graduated from college in 2009 and shortly thereafter moved to Boston. I went to Smith College School for Social Work and earned my Masters degree in August 2012. After that, I worked as an outpatient clinical social worker with children and adolescents for 4 years. I also worked at an early intervention agency for a year. Over the last 5 years, I've also Read more become very close with a family I've been babysitting for; the twins are now getting ready to celebrate their 6th birthday and their older sister just turned 11. I would love to develop this kind of close relationship with another family as well. I currently work at an outpatient psychotherapy practice, and just went down to 4 days a week. Interested in a babysitting job for Monday’s and could also provide occasional weekend help. I look forward to hearing from you!

Sarah was fantastic. She was available on short notice and was so flexible. She was warm and immediately connected with my daugther who didn't cry when I left. When I came home my daugther was in her pjs and ready for bed after an evening of fun. She gave Sarah the biggest hug when she left:) Will definitely book her again.
