Meet Sarah
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
* I have extensive experience working with and caring for children of all ages, particularly toddlers through age 10. I am bilingual, English/Spanish, so our babysitting time can double as a mini Spanish immersion session, if you'd like. * Although I am currently focusing my energies on working with an online non-profit, I have a fully valid and current Minnesota Teaching License, Early Childhood (Birth to Grade 3) that is viewable upon request. I have several years of licensed elementary teaching experience. * I babysit my niece and nephews, ages 1, 3, and 4, at least once a week. Together we have an amazing time reading (and reading some more), playing, discovering, making art projects, writing, singing, learning, and just having fun. I prefer to prioritize non-screen time, and incorporate outside play and movement whenever possible. * When I am ready to expand my Spanish tutoring hours, including time for Read more home-schooling groups, I will post that here as well! * Please feel free to ask any questions about my experience, skills, behavior management style/techniques, etc.. I promise, there are no silly questions where your child's safety and well-being are concerned. * I can also provide references upon request--please don't hesitate to ask. (I prefer to give them out on an individual basis.) Thanks so much for stopping by! *A few more details: *- I'm allergic to cats and dogs, but this is usually not a problem, especially if there is only one pet in the home. Although I love animals, a home with several pets probably wouldn't be a good fit. *- No smoking, ever. *- When babysitting, I feel most comfortable with up to three children, but please feel free to ask for somewhat larger groups, especially school aged. *- Feel free to ask for times not listed in my calendar, and/or last-minute jobs. I know plans fall through, etc. I can definitely try to accommodate you. : )
