This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a special education teacher in New Britain, CT at a Therapeutic Day School and I have experience with children with mild to severe special needs. I teach dance and love sharing my passion for the arts with our youth. I have been babysitting and nannying for 11 years on and off depending on my work schedule. I am trained in basic sign language and I believe in teaching it to the youth of our society as an alternative communication technique. I am an energetic individual with a love for the arts, sports, and daily life. I will respect your child (children/teens) and I believe that no matter the individuals age, they should be treated as an individual and respected for their needs, talents, and ideas.

Really cannot say enough great things about Zoe. She FAR EXCEEDED my expectations. Always on time, always creative with teaching my kids new things, took on extra responsibilities beyond what I asked her to do. Mostly, above all, all my kids felt a special relationship with her that I feel will last them a lifetime. I have 4 children- ranging from age 1-15. Two of them have special needs. Zoe related to them all, individually, and as a group. She also have no problem communicating in ASL and gesture with my deaf son. We all consider ourselves Lucky to have met Zoe!
