This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
In my history of being a nanny and a Special Education Teacher Assistant, I have always treated the children in my care as an extension of my own family. I worked as a full time nanny from 2012 to 2020 for several families. In that time period, there was a brief pause to nannying while I cared for my elderly mother in my home full time. Prior to working as a nanny, I was a Teacher Assistant in a school district for 12 years working with children preschool through 3rd grade, some with special needs. I have also worked at a Montessori school in their infant room. In that position, I cared for multiple infants. I am CPR/First Aid certified, as well as DCFS(Department of Children and Family Services) certified. I do hold a Paraprofessional Teaching Certificate. In addition, I am a mother of 2 adult children who are very well developed, successful, independent adults. I do have my own transportation, comfortable with pets and fully Covid vaccinated. Look forward to hearing from you!!
