Meet Sabra

• Comfortable with pets

Hello! My name is Sabra. I’m 25, and I’m currently working on my graduate degree for occupational therapy. I’ve always loved kids, and I fell in love with my job as a paraprofessional when I graduated college initially. I worked as a para for two years in the SSN classroom, and I still try to substitute teach when I have time and I’m needed. I have worked as both an as-needed babysitter and a nanny in the past. As a substitute teacher, I have taught 20-25 kids at a time. I babysat here and there in high school, but from 18-25, I’ve gotten much more experience working with kids as a babysitter an in the public school system. I love kids for their unique way of viewing the world and for their amazing sense of humor. I have yet to meet a kid that hasn’t been able to make me Read more laugh. As an occupational therapy student and with my teaching experience, I can help kiddos with their schoolwork or work on specific skills such as fine and gross motor or sequencing skills. I love to play with kids and just have fun too. Imaginative play is my personal favorite, but board games are a close second. I also love crafting and baking too! I always try to make a connection with the kid I’m working with through our likes and interests. I find that kids are much more open to a new person when they have something in common, even a favorite color. I also have experience with neurodivergent kids and kids who have more specific needs. As a previous para, I have experience with helping kids in dressing, hygiene, feeding, and various other skills. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am getting my education through Creighton University as a hybrid program where I watch lectures online and go to in-person labs at Regis University. I got my Bachelor’s in Psychology at the University of Northern Colorado. Thank you for reading through all of this, and I hope to hear from you soon!
