About Sage

Experience: 7 yrs

I have always loved caregiving. I know the importance of relieving the burdens of parents and giving their child(ren) a fun and safe experience. As somebody with extensive experience in the professional, academic, and childcare world, I find myself as a perfect fit to take care of your children in your absence. I am great with pets, as I have had well over eight pets growing up. I love cooking, hiking, drawing, science, math, and the arts. I am patient, organized, punctual, helpful, and caring. I will make it my greatest effort to be the best caretaker you can find for your family and look forward to our collaboration! I limit screen time while caretaking and prefer families whose routines are not screen-dependent. Rates vary by travel and responsibility level. Pay is set by prior agreement and not adjusted for early arrival or conclusion; additional time must be compensated. For transparency and safety, cameras in common areas are preferred; I may use my own if none are present.

Couldn’t recommend Sage enough! She was warm and asked all the right questions. She went above and beyond!! She truly was the best sitter we’ve ever had and we’re typically helicopters - I have never felt more comfortable with someone watching our baby girl. 10/10
