This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 7 yrs
I'm Darah (he/they), an experienced teacher, tutor, and caretaker. I'm looking for work as a nanny and have flexible availability. I have no reservations about changing diapers/potty training, making meals, and doing chores. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, in addition to ServSafe Food Handling, DCFS Licensing, SIDS/SBS/Trauma prevention. I'm passionate about early childhood, having worked in schools and homes with children ages 1-5. Please DM me for references. My skills include communicating with kids (both verbally and non-verbally), teaching through music, and fostering children's autonomy/independence/self trust. I started working with kids when I was in high school through babysitting and volunteering, and after college I began my career in childcare as a preschool teacher. In college, I was an Independent Scholars major, focused on gender studies. In my spare time, I like to read and write poetry, go on long walks, and spend time with friends.
