Booked by 4 families in Astoria, NY

Hi! I have always loved kids and started babysitting when I was 11 years old. Up until I had my daughter in 1998, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t doing some kind of work with kids: Interning in high school (Learning to Read Through the Arts, after school counselor ), volunteering (New York Foundling Hospital), assistant teacher (5 years at The Jewish Guild for the Blind early intervention program), sewing/craft instructor (home based classes). I had my daughter in 1998 and stayed home with her while caring for another child twice a week when she was small. I starting babysitting on Urban sitter to supplement my income while working on creative projects before deciding to go back to school. I completed my degree as an occupational therapy assistant and have rejoined Urban Sitter while looking for full-time work and am hoping to pick up the occasional babysitting job when I am working, as well. I am an artist at heart, love music (play a bit of guitar and sing) and truly enjoy young people. I am available on an as needed basis (date nights, filling in when your regular sitter is out, etc.) and my hours are very flexible. Please give me a call if you would like to meet me and see if I might be a good fit for your family!

“We would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone searching for a sitter. Our daughter took to her immediately and she radiates warmth and friendly energy. We were looking for someone who we felt we could rely on to follow our bedtime routine for our daughter, who's definitely in a separation-anxiety phase, and Sarah has been wonderful. We'll absolutely be hiring her again!”

I started working with children from a very young age. I have experience as a nanny and camp counselor. I also am an animal lover and love long walks with furry friends. Being the oldest sibling, it is in my nature to be a caregiver and I am very patient and lots of fun. A fun fact about me is I love books and music!
