I was a teacher's aide in both a preschool and pre-K class (and was in a mixed age class, infants- 3 years) before my present job. I have been a part-time and full-time nanny for a family in Lake Forest Park since 2020. Other experiences taking care of children from infants to school aged include day and overnight camp counselor, 1:1 aide for a child with autism, a child with socialization challenges, a child with speech challenges. I enjoy the company of children and am empathetic and a good listener. I can be fun or serious, engage in conversation and enjoy indoor and outdoor time. I like to include nature in my caregiving. I am looking for part-time hours with older infants through preschool age. I have part-time and/or occasional availability in the mornings and afternoons until about 2pm. Sara "is the most caring, empathetic, calm, intuitive, responsible, and communicative Read more childcare provider we have ever had for our two sons." Becca G. "Sara holds a philosophy of respectful, responsive, reciprocal, relationship, and research-based care for young children. She has impressive observation skills. Her interactions with young children are intentional and based on these observations and reflections. She develops meaningful relationships with young children and meets them where they are developmentally. ." Susan B., former coworker/lead teacher 6 mon-3 years old class
