Hi! My name is Sarah and I'm 37 years old.  Seeking a kind family in need of a professional babysitter. Here is a brief summary of what to expect from me: Seeking a 3-25 hour weekly position for babysitting, and light house cleaning if necessary, (If you like, I can take initiative if something needs to be done).  7 years of experience and excellent "references" available. Known for my Reliability and Punctuality PERSONAL POLICY: I Work ONLY within a safe, comfortable neighborhood and with people I can trust. I studied abroad in Madrid, Spain and developed a very good foundation of the Spanish language as well as the history and geography of the country of Spain. I have also traveled to Mexico for three different humanities trips and spent 11 days in Lisbon, Portugal (also for humanities). I am a firm believer in teaching children about the world around us. Read more If the parent approves, I would be happy to bring things I have obtained on my trips (a Spanish fan, magnets, maps). I love how children absorb information and it is a privilege to be a part of their development. I prefer doing things rather than putting a child in front of a television or video game. I have spent many evenings with my nieces and nephews teaching them about Science, and doing actual science projects. I am happy to implement any of these activities if the parent approves. I've been happily married to my wonderful husband for 16 years. I managed a corporate office for 9 years and then transitioned to my own virtual assistant business which is part time hours each week. Grew up in a family of 5 , and have been around children of all ages (and all kinds of pets) for my entire life. Tutoring Here are subjects that I can teach Vocal (Music) Violin Beginner to Intermediate Spanish Reading Writing Math Science History I truly cannot wait to meet you and bring some support to your life. Please note that I do not currently own a vehicle. My husband and I are located in Alexandria, very close to the metro station. I regularly use all modes of public transportation as well as uber.
