Hi! My name is Sarah! I am a recent college graduate with a major in Youth Ministry. My major in college alone and the internships associated with that have made me specifically equipped to lead young people. I am also a widely experienced babysitter and started babysitting my sophomore year of high school. Since then, until now moving to the Joliet area, I had been a regular babysitter for 4 different families. I was the babysitter for one specific family of two boys for 8 years, starting when they were 2.5 and 8 years old. I watched another family of three girls for 2 years, starting as twin infants and a 4 year old. I watched one family consistently for a year with three kids, two boys ages 9 and 6, and a girl age 4. Finally, I watched another family of two girls, ages 5 and 9, for many Read more long days of 8am-5:30pm during the summer of 2020. I have experience driving kids, swimming safely with multiple kids at a time, preparing meals for multiple kids including infants, putting down for bedtime/naps, disciplining within reason when necessary, separating fighting siblings, and building close and trusting relationships with families. I have been a trusted babysitter for many years and feel confident in my abilities to steward the responsibility to care for any kids entrusted to me! Please feel free to ask to see my references! :)
