Hi, my name is Sarah ("Sam"), and I have 4 years of experience in childcare working as a lead teacher for children ages 0-3 in a Montessori preschool. I have loved my work teaching, and I now am seeking a role where I can share my love for early childhood with one special family. I have enjoyed studying and implementing the Montessori method, and am hoping to grow into a Nanny role with a family who also sees the value in Montessori. I am most experienced with infants and toddlers and am comfortable with multiple approaches to feeding, sleeping, diapering, and play routines. I am high energy, positive, and organized.

Sarah has watched our daughter since she was 3 weeks old! She is incredibly educated about child development and has not only created a safe and comfortable environment, but has helped point out developmental milestones our child is hitting. On a personal level she is warm and considerate and gives the best (and funniest) updates on how it's going when she is watching our kid. I have laughed out loud many times at her incredibly detailed breakdowns. As a first time mom who was terrified to leave her kid with anyone, Sarah has put me at ease! I've come home to her rocking and singing songs like "Baby Beluga" to her. Sarah is such a gentle and soothing addition to our childcare team. Our daughter has a generally sunny disposition anyway but Sarah sitting on the floor interacting with her makes our daughter light up like a Christmas tree! Sarah has been a staple in our kid's life and would be a wonderful addition to anyone's family care team.
