This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 1 yr
Hello! I've been working in care on-and-off for the past 10 years (both in schools and privately). I've worked with children of all ages (including infants) and adults. I am deeply nourished by offering my time and presence to others. I live and approach the world/those I meet with gentleness, patience and receptivity. I'm committed to cultivating understanding, compassion and love in all my relationships, gauging how I can best support others through the cycles of life. In addition to my work in care, I'm also a certified Ayurvedic health counselor, yoga teacher and energy worker. In addition, I've had years of experience cooking and using food as medicine. I live in a mindful way, and orient myself towards friendship and healing.
