This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 8 yrs
I just moved into the area, a week ago, leaving my job where I provided care as a nanny for a family of three (One of which was on the autism spectrum). I provided after school care, as well as, performed light house duties around the home. I have worked with children for about 6 1/2 years, in a variety of settings. Before working as a nanny, I provided care for children in a foster home facility, the ratio was 2:13. I have also worked in before and after care as the Lead Special Needs Counselor for our center, working with children who have autism. The ratio was 1:8. I also, worked in residential facility dealing with children who have eating disorders, anger issues, and mental disabilities. I love working with kids and hope to continue doing so. Currently I am going to school to obtain a degree in recreational therapy. So that I can continue to work with children on a more therapeutic level.

I hired Siobhan to care for my 12 year old on the autism spectrum. She was great with his after school program planning different activities and events each day after school. Later, she absorbed caring for my 15 year old and 9 year old (both boys). She was able to manage all three with an organized household and after school sports schedules. She is reliable, organized, engaging and is aware of the extra needs for the children with exceptional personalities.
