Hi! I'm the nanny you've been looking for! I'd love to schedule an interview and see if I'd be a good match for your family. I look forward to hearing from you, but for now a little more about me... I started babysitting about 15 years ago. I worked in the children's book industry for several years before becoming a full time nanny in 2011. I've worked with several Eastside families over the years. Most of my tenures end when the children out grow needing a nanny. It's been rewarding watching and helping so many little ones grow into independent and intelligent little boys and girls. This profile pictures my husband, Jordan, also. He has babysat with me on occasion and is adored by children. I prioritize a child's safety and I like having Jordan with us as an extra set of hands when I take children to a public Read more place, like the playground or the zoo. Sometimes childcare is a team sport. My philosophy on child care emphasizes mental, physical and emotional development. I encourage reading and creative play. I believe most unhappiness, like throwing tantrums, stem from an underlying frustration. I always try to target the cause than punish the outburst. I am selective when finding a new family because its important that a good nanny should feel like a natural extension of the family. If you think I could be a good fit for your family then feel free to contact me! - Sarah
