This is a criminal background check required for all caregivers before they can message families.
Experience: 30 yrs
I have over 25 years of childcare experience including 19 years as a full-time nanny and 9 years as a preschool teacher. I encourage screen free activities. I plan activities such as making playdough, child friendly boardgames and art projects. I keep my charges safe and teach/reinforce manners and good behavior. I am a safe driver. I can prepare healthy meals and snacks. I often come prepared with games toys. I am currently looking for evening and weekend work.
Bobby was our nanny for our two children (now five and three) for the past five years. He was always patient with our them (often more so than ourselves). We never had any concerns about the way he interacted with our children or how he handled difficult situations when they were misbehaving. Bobby is also exceptionally professional, never being more than five minutes late once in five years despite the randomness of traffic. On the rare occasions where he had to change plans he communicated clearly and well in advance. He also responded to feedback well when we asked him to do things differently. When we first hired Bobby, we thought that someone willing to deal with the stigma of being a male working with small children in a female-dominated profession must really like what they do and be good at it. That turned out to be true, and whichever family Bobby joins next will be lucky to have him!
