Hello! My name is Sarah; I am 22 years old and would be more then excited to be your nanny! I am currently a college student working on a degree in music therapy, specializing with children! It is safe to say I love kids. I can provide for your child a friend, mentor and trustworthy caregiver. I believe in engaging children in activities that not only stimulate educational growth, but also ones that provide positive play. In other words, if your child enjoys crafts, games and using their imagination, over watching television, then I’m the nanny for you! I love being outdoors or staying in, either way I can creatively come up with activities to do. If need be I can help with house hold chores such as cooking and cleaning, and oddly enough, enjoy doing such activities. I am intelligent and love learning and sharing knowledge that I know. Read more Therefore, I would be a great candidate for those with children needing homework help or those who simply love to learn! I am the middle child of seven kids (one on the way), giving me experience in children from infancy to teens. Coming from a large family also gave me the ability to deal with a wide variety of different personalities! I am really easy going, and not much phases my positive mood. I was hoping for a full time nanny position, but am open for an expressed interest in my profile! I currently do not have any badges (apart from a background check) to prove my skills and knowledge, that is something in the works! Still, I can bring to the table knowledge only a hands on experienced caregiver could hold!
