This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 6 yrs
I absolutely love kids at all ages & stages! One of the most significant rewards of being a Nanny is the connections I get to make and the satisfaction of being a dependable team member to a family. I've learned an array of skills as a Nanny and had firsthand experience through the ages & stages of child development as a parent myself. I am fascinated with child development and continue to learn & educate myself on the healthiest ways to care, connect, communicate, teach, and play with children. As a former homeschool educator, I understand the importance of activities that support child development and encourage their imagination and creativity. My approach to childcare is centered around creating a connected, creative, and safe environment for children to explore their world. I believe within these perimeters children grow, learn & thrive. My favorite hobbies includes hiking, beach walks, gardening & making art of all kinds. I am CPR certified and have a Livescan background check.
