Hi! I am a graduate of UMass Boston with over 10 years of experience working with children. I’ve gained my expertise through roles in Boston Public Schools, Case Manager, two years of nannying for a family with twins, and babysitting for various sitter apps. Throughout my career, I have worked with children of all ages and diverse cultural backgrounds. I am responsible, trustworthy, loving, caring, fun, and active. I enjoy doing arts and crafts and playing sports with kids. I am confident that I will be a great fit for your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Lots of experience taking care of cats and dogs. I have pets of my own and have looked after neighborhood animals for many years. I am responsible and caring and would love to take care of your fur babies so you can relax and enjoy some time away.

Did everything that was needed- took great care of my pets and sent pictures of their happy faces, which I loved seeing.

I am a retired teacher, having worked with middle and high schoolers in the area of Language Arts for 38 years. Currently, I am a nanny, a substitute teacher, and a tutor for elementary students. My life has been spent helping children learn and grow, to my great enjoyment. I have an M.Ed. in Reading Education and am a National Board Certified teacher since 2000. One of my proudest career moments was being chosen as WRAL's Teacher of the Week on Dec. 2, 2015. I am mother to four adult sons (two adopted from Russia) and a grandmother to three grandchildren, ages 1, 4, and 8. I have served as a foster parent through Children's Home Society; every child deserves a safe, loving home. I have completed Child and Baby First Aid/ CPR/AED training through the American Red Cross. I am fully vaccinated! My strong points are my patience, creativity, and energy. Yes, I consider myself a young 70 year old! I am a non- smoker, love pets, and have reliable transportation. I enjoy baseball, traveling, reading, hiking, and antiquing. My recent trips have included France, Ireland, Scotland, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Wyoming, Texas, and South Dakota. All have been fun learning experiences! I hope to meet you and your family soon!

Sharon is the best sitter! Our kids love her. She always finds a way to incorporate learning and a fun activity when spending time with our youngsters. If you are able to have Sharon watch your kids you won’t be disappointed.
