This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I have always had a passion to work with children. This is why I am a teacher. I got a bachelors and a masters degree in special education. Currently, pursuing a post masters degree in Applied Behavioral Analysis. During the school year, I teach for MOCO public schools. During the summer, I work for MOCO Department of Recreation as a behavior manager. I have love and compassion for behaviors including social skills and independent skills. I developed and led social skills, drama, and yoga classes to teach students important life skills in a meaningful way. I am a certified yoga instructor specializing in yoga for children including autism and ADHD. I believe that children need support learning about their feelings and to regulate themselves. My experience has been with early childhood through high school. Mostly with students with special needs. I like to make the learning process fun so that it is easier for children to retain information as well as have fun while learning.

Elida was such a fantastic match for our energetic 2-year-old. She always had an activity ready and she was so patient with tantrums and toddler back talk. Elida had excellent communication and we always felt like our family could count on her. I only wish we had more time with her, because she really is wonderful! Any family that hires her is lucky and in great hands!
