Hi!! My name is Sarah- I recently moved to DC due to my husband being relocated here with the military. I am looking for a part time nanny job and occasional babysitting jobs. I am 27 years old, have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, and have 10 years of childcare work experience, including: babysitting, nannying full-time, tutoring, and coaching gymnastics. I have experience working with children ranging from 6 months-13 years old. I am looking for occasional sitting jobs and possibly temporary part time nannying position prior to starting PA school in October! I am not available for full time hours and cannot commit to a long term position unfortunately. I love to stay active and spend time outside, and also enjoy reading, arts & crafts, and being creative. I strive to be a fun, engaging sitter and love meeting new families! I also provide overnight childcare, school drop-off/pick up, Read more house managing services (ex. help with laundry, groceries, meals, extracurricular activities). I drive a reliable SUV and have a safe driving record. Lastly, I am a certified medical assistant and will be starting Physician Assistant school in October 2025.

Sarah is wonderful with my one year old son. She is very engaged and knowledgeable. She’s great at thinking ahead (remembering things like sunscreen!!) and keeping my baby safe, fed, and happy. I was home once while she was watching my son and I could hear them giggling away in the other room!!
