This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 7 yrs
I provide thorough loving supervision for the child at all times. I am skilled at feeding transporting and general care. I have many activities and games up my sleeve to engage the child to take an interest in life fully. To look deeply, lovingly and thoroughly at all aspects of each moment. I enjoy being a kind influence that encourages the child to be a loving and kind yet intelligent human being. I treat a child with the greatest respect for the incredible human being they are growing into every day. I love seeing a child blossom. I took care of my sister's daughter for many years. She was 4 when I started and I took care of her til she was 12. I have had many babysitting jobs. I have taken care of babies from time to time and am continually honored to do so.

Mary became a loving, caring part of our family when my daughter W. was still only 4. She was always punctual and smiling with a new game or artwork or project to engage my daughter. I found her to be fun, trustworthy and capable in many areas. She's quick to respond in challenging situations. She took care of W., mostly in the summer months, until my daughter was 12. We moved away from the area at that time. I always felt she had our best interests at heart. I felt safe entrusting our daughter to her which was the main reason she was with us so many years.
