This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I have over 13 years childcare experience, both personally and professionally. I began babysitting at a young age and continued to do so throughout high school and college. I am also a certified occupational therapy assistant with 5 years of pediatric experience, which provides me with a deep understanding of how to best entertain, support, and nurture the children in my care. I recently returned from a year in Guatemala, where I coordinated services at a hospital for infants and young children with malnutrition. I have a great deal of experience providing safe, attentive care for multiple infants and toddlers at a time, and am very comfortable and confident caring for children with common childhood illnesses (colds, flu, fevers, stomach "bugs," etc). I treat all children in my care with the love, attention, and nurturing I would give to my own (I absolutely adore children, but have none!). I really do enjoy and cherish the little ones I care for and take pride in providing the type of care that parents can feel good about.

Amy took care of our 2 year old son while my wife recovered from hip surgery. She took good care of him and also managed to do all of our laundry and dishes too. She also assisted my wife with various things (meals, etc) during her first couple of weeks post op. Our son was right in the midst of his terrible twos phase and can be a real handful but Amy was able to handle him the whole time she worked for us. We wish her luck and would definitely hire her again!
