Sarah R. - Smyrna Babysitter

***Due to the fact that I am currently finishing my education degree and have several families that I already work for on a regular and sporadic basis, I am not looking for any new families to work for right now. I will be graduating in the spring and looking for a full time position at that time, if you are looking for a future summer or long term nanny!***

Please feel free to check out my new website for some more details and information about me, my experience, and services available I will be updating here as I become available once again.: <WEBSITE>

CPR/AED/First Aid Training/Recertification for Infants, Children and Adults completed February 28th.

I am an Early Childhood Education Major at Kennesaw State University. I have two semesters left, starting Fall 2009, including just my TOSS and Student teaching, and will graduate in Spring 2010.

I do have experience driving children, mostly bringing my current family's child to and from storytime at the local library, and the park. I have experience with dealing with a lactose-free diet, and organic. I also try to be as eco/energy-concious at home and at work as I can be.

I have been caring for children for practically my entire life as I am the oldest of 4 children. I have also provided babysitting to other families, with various amounts of responsibility, since I was ~12 years old.

I was employed as a nanny for a wonderful family in Smyrna, where I worked caring for their son, who was 2 1/2 years old son when I left, for over a year. I also worked in a nannying position locally caring for an infant (6-7 months old). During high school I worked with 2 sweet twin boys with autism (from 8-10 years of age) as a therapy assistant, and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I am open to working with other children who may have special needs as well. I was working two regular Monday/Wedneday jobs caring for a 6-month-old on Wednesdays and a 15-month-old on Mondays. I am still also with my main family, with a sweet 3-year-old in a nannying position three days a week (Tuesday/Thursday/Friday), and also caring for a 15-month-old alternating Mondays and Wednesdays. I love my job(s)!!!

My resume and more references are available upon request, but right now I have  two recent previous nannying employers listed. My current employer and employers of my babysitting services available by request.

My usual rate for 1 child is $13 an hour, with the price for multiple children variable. Please contact me for an exact rate including number and ages of children. 4 hour minimum care period/pay.The number of children that I am comfortable with superivising depends on the ages and age gaps of the children, as well as the location in which the care will take place, and will need to be discussed and planned for before the job. I would love to help out at your next party/large group gathering to provide childcare.

Rate for families: $13-17/hour

Rate for multi-family group/party: $16-25/hr (means great discounted per child rates!!!)

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing if I may be a good fit for your family and need!

I'm a non-smoker.
