My name is Sarah Bergum, and I have 10+ years of experience working with children ranging in age from newborns to high schoolers. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work from Eastern Mennonite University, and am First Aid certified and infant, child, and adult CPR certified. I have worked as a daycare teacher, caring for up to 16 three and four year olds independently, as well as up to four infants independently. I have also worked as a full time nanny, substitute preschool teacher, and most recently as a social worker at a children's hospital. I have an 18 month old daughter, and I'm seeking a nannying position to allow me to keep my daughter with me while working. We practice interactive and gentle parenting with our daughter, who enjoys playing with other children. I also have my own reliable transportation. Resume and references available upon request.
