I am an experienced and fun caregiver with a background in elementary education and theater education. For the past two years I have worked as an instructional assistant at an elementary school in Newton and substituted grades K-5th, and provided intervention instruction in math. I was also the program manager for the after school program at the school. As program manager I was in charge of first aid and provided social, emotional and behavioral support for our students. I also planned many fun activities and special events. I have worked in musical theater for several years with children of all ages, so I have many fun games and activities to share! I have taught ages 3-12 in dance and voice as well. I love arts and crafts, and sports, and am I always ready to play. I understand that kids are growing and learning in a very unprecedented time currently. I am excited to provide the patience and empathy required to help them succeed!

Sarah was a wonderful employee! She showed up everyday with a smile on her face. She worked with children ranging from Kindergarten to 5th grade in the after-school program I run. Sarah was patient and energetic, her theater background helped her keep kids entertained during our program hours. She is very artistic and creative, always coming up with fun and interesting activities to keep the kids engaged. Sarah also worked as a math intervention specialist in the public schools and was able to bring that knowledge to her after-school world when supporting children with homework. I could see Sarah being an amazing asset to any family looking for support for kids at home in all aspects from keeping them entertained and safe as well as support with remote learning. I would highly recommend Sarah for any family looking for a reliable and fun person to work with their children!
