This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 6 yrs
I am a mother, and a grandmother, who knew from a very early age that children were to be my calling in life. I just finished a job with an infant I watched for 5 months, and would still be doing so, but for the fact she moved back to Italy with her parents. I was asked to go with them as our time together seemed too short, but my grandchildren keep me here in Davis. I delight in the children I work with as they are the joy of pure knowing and help me see the world anew through their eyes. It is a privilege to be a caregiver in any capacity, as I have taken care of young adults with disabilities and have worked with seniors too, but my heart feels most complete with the children. I am really good with infants, as it seems I have an innate ability to understand what they need through all their subtle and not so subtle means of communication. I look forward to more opportunities of sharing my expertise with your families.
