This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 8 yrs
I graduated with a Doctor of Physical Therapy and am a licensed physical therapist. I presented my thesis on a pediatric case. I have over 9 years of care giving experience. I have watched over 10+ families. I have cared for 1-6 children at a time in a home setting and enjoyed every part of it! For several years I have been a Girl Scout Troop Leader, watching over 20 girls, aging 6-11. We would do many crafts, activities, and field trips. In my past work experience I worked as a full time Fitness Specialist at a Medical Fitness Facility. Since I love children I would also help in the day care whenever they were short staffed. I make it a point to myself to always be ahead of time, ensure safety, be a good role model, not be distracted with electronics, and make a fun/loving atmosphere. Experience handling severe food allergies and special needs. Vigorous coursework and experience with child developmental conditions. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
