We are excited to have Sarah returning to us for her 2nd season!
Sarah is 24 years old and has a Level 5 Qualification in early years and childhood studies plus over 6 years’ experience working with children from 6 months up to 12 years old.
During Sarah’s first season all of her families absolutely loved her and any that have returned have requested her, Sarah is fun, energetic and a very lovely nanny.
While Sarah was training she did her work experience in a playschool and several setting, gaining experience in working with a wide age range of children. Then after gaining her qualification she moved to Manchester to gain more experience.
In Manchester Sarah worked as a nanny caring for 2 children who were 1.5 years old and 7 years old. Her role was to follow their daily routine, getting them ready for the day, preparing healthy meals, planning and providing fun activities, taking the children out on day trips and generally ensuring all the childrens needs were met. She also worked for the family again in 2017 while they were in between nannies and she was in between summer seasons.
In 2016 Sarah decided to go on an adventure and she spent her first summer in Ibiza working as a waitress, she has since spent 4 summers working in beautiful Ibiza and has thoroughly enjoyed the experience, however she has missed working with children and has been searching for a new position where she can get back to the job that she loves.
After hearing friends talk about the amazing winter seasons they have done, she decided that this winter she would get back to childcare and start a new adventure in the Alps.
Sarah describes herself as hard working, adaptable and lots of fun, she is excited to come out to Meribel and learn to ski, but even more excited to meet lots of new families and children……..
We have a sneaky feeling she will fall in love with the mountains immediately!
Sarah’s references had lovely things to say about her including…….
“The children loved her. She was able to get them to do tasks such as getting dressed, brushing teeth and eating lunch by making it fun for them.”
“Sarah is very mature and responsible. I felt at ease leaving for work knowing that she was looking after my children”
“Sarah is very likable and fits into any situation. Sarah is kind towards the kids but also makes them aware of clear boundaries so they respect her. Sarah is funny and can interact with all different ages kids. Sarah is very helpful and always offers to go above and beyond what is required of her”
Feedback Winter 2019/20 below:
“Sarah was very friendly and professional at all times. She got to know my boys well putting them at ease and doing a wide variety of fun activities with them”
Hotel Grangettes 4 children from 5 & 6 years old – December 2019
Lucy and Sarah made every afternoon this week so much fun for our 6-year-old, we felt a bit guilty taking him away for the occasional family ski! Always cheerful, despite working long hours. They were also super flexible and quick to adapt to our changing plans (weather conditions). Even made him eat most of his lunch. Amazing!
Minton Family 8 children from 3 – 8 years old – December 2019
Sarah was an excellent nanny – 2.5 yr old and 10 month old both v happy to be left in her care – she gave them fresh air and happy times – painting and a trip on the bubble – calm and kind disposition and they both ate their lunch – not always the case – highly recommended
Monk Family – January 2020
Sarah, together with Lucy, looked after my three year old toddler and five month old baby during a trip to Méribel Village. She was fantastic – by the end of the week we were genuinely sad to be saying goodbye to her. As well as being confident looking after the children, kind and an all-round safe pair of hands, she also had an infectious sense of humour. She arrived one day with a box of paints and my toddler was in heaven. Our fridge is now covered in these masterpieces. Will be booking again for next season. Thank you “Sar Sar”. X
Walsh family – Chalet Marmotte – January 2020
Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our son (4) and daughter (1). She was very calm and kind and kept the children entertained all day with fun activities and excursions. It was reassuring knowing she was taking such good care of the children so we could relax and fully enjoy the skiing. 100% recommend!
Batcholor family – Feb 2020
