Hello Families, My name is Sarah. I am 43 years old and a proud mother of two wonderful girls (ages 10 and 15). I also have three stepchildren (ages 12, 15, and 17), so I have many years of experience caring for children and understanding family life. I am originally from Brazil, and Portuguese is my first language. I speak English at an intermediate level and continue to study ESL regularly to improve my communication. I truly love working with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel confident. I enjoy playing with them, reading, doing creative activities, and spending time outdoors. I also love cooking and baking. I used to bake as a second job and enjoy teaching children simple baking activities like decorating cupcakes or making treats together. In my professional life, I have worked in several areas including office administration, financial assistance, hospital nursing assistance, and as Read more an assistant teacher for a computer introduction class for children ages 7–11. I have had a driver's license for over 20 years and currently hold a valid Washington driver’s license. I am comfortable driving children to school, activities, and appointments. I have a reliable vehicle (2015 Chevrolet Tahoe). I am responsible, patient, organized, and caring. When I care for children, I treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I give to my own. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, I would love to connect and answer any questions. Thank you for your time, Sarah.
