What types of services do homeschool teachers near me in Columbia, CT offer?

How can I safely hire homeschooling teachers near me in Columbia, CT?
While we ask all homeschool teachers listed on Care.com to complete a CareCheck (you can see which providers completed one by looking for the badge on their profile), this is just a jumping off point.
