Meet Sarah

I'm 38 years old and was an infant and special needs nanny in Portland for many years before returning to southern Oregon to open my own business which has subsequently closed. My oldest is in college at SOU, my stepson is 9 and is my weekend buddy. I'm comfortable with all aspects of infant and child care. I've lost touch with most of the parents I worked for in PDX but a few remain FB friends for references. I'm tidy, not scared of housework, I love to cook and bake, read (love my library!), I listen to NPR, TV is just background noise to me though I prefer music. I have a mellow personality and I'm quick to laugh, I don't smoke anything, I dont do drugs, I love pets, no real allergies, I love to write and read the paper, I've been told I'm diplomatic and funny. I'm okay Read more with everyone's politics, sexual preference, gender, race, beliefs.
