We have recently added not one, but TWO amazing new team members. We’re so excited to welcome Sarah to the team. She’ll be coordinating all our partner agencies, as well as developing strategy around which parts of our service area need more agencies so we can reach more children. She is super smart, has a passion for helping others (especially kids!) and is going to be a key asset for our team.

Sweet Cheeks Title: Partner Agency Coordinator
Why are you excited to be a part of the Sweet Cheeks Team? Having a baby changes your life in so many ways. I immediately felt a pull to help other mothers who may be struggling to take care of their innocent babies. Being a part of the Sweet Cheeks team will give me the opportunity to help babies in the Cincinnati area stay safe and healthy, while also meeting like minded people along the way.
Tell us about your kid(s): I have a 15 month old son, Quinn. He is a sweet, goofy ball of energy with white-blonde hair. He loves music, reading books and singing E-I-E-I-O in his crib as soon as he wakes up in the morning.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be and why? I have been wanting to go to India for most of my adult life. I believe that traveling is the best way to relate to others and learn about the world outside of Cincinnati. India is full of life, gorgeous colors, amazing history and the birthplace of yoga.
