This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 8 yrs
I have been teaching for 10+ years. I started off teaching children swimming and skiing in high school. I have been an elementary school garden educator (full time/ 4 years), a preschool head teacher, and a nanny. I've taught everything from martial arts to english language and creative writing. My preferred form of teaching is exploration. I like to use the teachable moments that present themselves through everyday adventures. One day me may learn about trees; the next, we'll explore engineering and fort building. Everyday is an opportunity to learn something new.
