I am an energetic, fun-loving, responsible, and patient 28 year young woman living in the beautiful town of San Clemente. I have been working with children for over 14 years and have a strong passion for helping little ones learn, grow, and best of all, have fun while being healthy and active.. I like to think of myself as a very fun nanny, not one that sits a child in front of a TV and plays on her phone. Sure, TV and making forts is great for rainy days, late afternoon down time, and movie night, but I prefer to dunk the kids in sunscreen and take them out to play. Being into health, fitness, and organic eating myself, I also like to encourage and support healthy eating habits. I love to cook and can happily prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner, baby food using the baby bullet, pack lunches, and have some Read more pretty cool yet nutritious snack ideas. I also do dishes, laundry, and can happily help out with any other household chores during nap time or run errands for you if needed. I try and keep the counters clean, dishes put away, and toy areas as tidy as possible, but when we are playing and having fun, the messes can always wait. I can drop off and pick up the kids from school, take to activities or somewhere fun, help with homework, get dinner started, and get everyone bathed and ready for bedtime. I am very good at sticking to schedules ( feedings, medications, naps, school, activities) and love to take little ones on walks to parks or beach, work on tummy time and rolling, read books, play outside, sing, dance, arts and crafts, and overall interaction and stimulation. I am interested in working with and teaching the children different educational and learning activities as well as good manners and being loving and kind to one another. One of my goals in becoming a nanny is to help you, the parents, to the best of my ability making daily life less stressful. Knowing your child is safe, having fun while learning, and is in great hands, is the best peace of mind a nanny can offer. I am observant, conscientious of the child's needs, and a great multi-tasker with a lot of love to give .

Sarah has cared for our 2 year old daughter 3 days/week for the past 8 months. We absolutely love Sarah and I highly recommend her. She is by far the most responsible, energetic, fun-loving, and caring nanny that I have ever come across. She is always doing something fun and active with our daughter and teaches her new things everyday. She communicates well and is always punctual. She sends me texts throughout the day so I know what my daughter is up to. My daughter gets so excited every time Sarah comes over and I have peace of mind knowing that she is in great hands. We consider Sarah part of our family and hope that she stays with us for a long time!!
