This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello, I am a mother of four grown children (my youngest is 24) and an empty nester; have 29 years of stay-at-home-mom/homemaker experience and have been helping families with child care since January 2015; enjoy children; have safe and dependable transportation (2006 Volvo station wagon); and have some first aid/CPR training. Arts and crafts, books, games, music, theater, martial arts/tai chi, sports, outdoor activities, pets, and nature were an integral and important part of life within our family/home and home school. I have an integrative arts background/BFA, have taught music lessons and summer art classes, play piano and guitar, have studied some family law, write/journal, keep a tidy environment, like to cook, am interested in gardening/plants, and enjoy taking walks and spending time with family and friends. I would be happy to help you with your family's child care needs. Thank you for your consideration. Sharon

Sharon worked with us for the past 13 months and we are so sad to see her go! (She is moving to be with family) Both of my daughters (ages 2 and 8) love Sharon and are always excited when they see her car pull up the driveway. She is warm, thoughtful, conscientious, and goes above and beyond the call of duty. You would be hard pressed to find a better caregiver for your children.
