About Sharon

Experience: 5 yrs

I have 5 years' experience in childcare, as both a nanny and as a childcare center teacher. I am CPR and first aid certified and can provide references. I especially enjoy caring for infants, and use an approach guided by the RIE method of infant care. I believe all babies deserve respectful, gentle care, and work with parents as we observe baby's changing needs to try to best meet the needs of all. I also have a music education background, with a special interest in early childhood music. I enjoy designing musical experiences based on Edwin Gordon's Music Learning Theory (this is what Music Together bases their curriculum on). M A few things I like to let families know from the start: I am working on my comfort level with working in homes with dogs (not allergic, just a little nervous around them) so if you have a dog I'd be happy to do a meet and greet. I'm totally comfortable with cats. I don't drive children (have reliable transportation for myself)

We had the pleasure of having Sharon care for our niw 1year old son for four months. It was a great experience. She is professional, knowledgeable, kind, and very easy to work with. We are first time parents and we came to rely on Sharon's knowledge and expertise. She was patient and kind and our son absolutely adored her. He was always happy when she showed up. She helped with his development tremendously. She always had engaging games, songs, and activities, and brought her own toys and musical instruments. We are moving temporarily out of state and we are genuinely sad to see her go. We would hire Sharon again without any hesitation. We recommend her highly.
