Meet Sarah

  • Speaks English and French

Hello! My name is Sarah. I just graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.A. in Psychology (concentration in Development & Mental Health) with a minor in Creative Writing. I am currently pursuing a career as a full-time campus missionary with New Life Church in Ann Arbor. I have lots of experience with young kids - I'm the oldest child & grandchild on both sides of my family, so I've grown up caring for my younger brothers and cousins for as long as I can remember. I've also volunteered in the nursery at my church, did occasional babysitting for three girls (5-year-old twins & a 7-year-old) for over two years, and am currently nannying for a two-year-old girl until September. I also have experience as a caregiver for the elderly and with children with special needs - I'd love to share more about those experiences! I love being outdoors, Read more reading and writing, playing piano, painting & other arts and crafts, and generally caring for & playing with kids! It's always such an honor to be trusted by & invited into a family to help care for the children - I love the wonder & delight that kids bring to the world, and spending time with little people is one of my favorite things! Thanks so much for considering me!
