This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 4 yrs
My personality is creative, adventurous, spontaneous. I like working with kids because they have very unique minds, full of energy, and eager to learn things. I'm looking for a job that allows me to build relationships with not only the kids, but parents too. I've always been surrounded by children, learning how they think, what their behaviors mean, and most importantly how to take care of them. About 3-4 years ago I began watching my cousins children daily. In my spare time, I like to go on walks, listen to music, and watch documentaries. I am a people pleaser. I will do any random favors, laundry, dishes, cleaning up, etc. I also do not curse, drink, or smoke. I am currently enrolled at ECC. Communication- using a kind tone and approach that works for children. Entertainment- the children I work with will always be engaged and doing something fun. Patience- children often take a longer time to listen, complete a task, or might have a tantrum and need some time to cool down.
