Sarah $35 per hour for 1 child

Hey parents! 
I’m Sarah and with over 10 years of experience babysitting and teaching, I’m here to make your life a little easier by providing awesome childcare, tutoring, and household support. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I’m confident I can be a great fit for your family. I have a master's degree am fluent in Mandarin and would be happy to teach your kids Mandarin and tutor them after school in most subjects. Background I’m a 4th Generation San Franciscan who works as a SaaS Account Executive 9-5 and would love to support you with your children in the evenings and weekends. Childcare Services As the oldest of three (with siblings three and six years younger), I basically grew up raising children. I started babysitting in 4th grade and kept at it throughout middle and high school, mostly working with kids aged 4 to 12. After college, I moved to Taiwan and taught English to Kindergarten and 1st graders and tutored high school students for three years. So whether your child is a toddler or a teen, I’ve got plenty of experience with all ages! I’m fluent in Mandarin and would love to teach your kids the language! I also have a master’s degree from the University of Bath and a bachelor’s from UC Davis, so I’m happy to help tutor in most subjects (just don’t ask me for math help, haha). I’m into sports like volleyball and tennis, so if your kids love being active, I’d be happy to play with them. Plus, I’ve got a 2017 Lexus NX200T and can assist with carpooling. I’m currently working on getting re-certified in CPR and can share references if you’d like! Pet Care Services I love animals, and I’m comfortable handling dogs, cats, and even larger pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or playtime, I’ve got it covered—even if your furry friend sheds a lot. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family soon!
