This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 20 yrs
I am a certified preschool teacher with a deep passion for children of all ages. Over the years, I've worked in various child centers, including Del Mar Hills Nursery Schools, Montessori schools for ages 3 to 5, Golden Poppy Infant Center, and most recently, Chai Preschool as a toddler teacher for 1-2-year-olds. My love for art and craft, music and movement, reading, singing, and yoga shines through in my teaching. Seeing the smiles and receiving hugs from the little ones keeps me motivated and excited about my work. In addition to my professional experience, I've also had the joy of raising my own son, whom I'm incredibly proud of. I've even had the opportunity to babysit some of my former preschoolers, which I've cherished. If you need more information or references, please don't hesitate to reach out. Best regards.

We had the pleasure of having Zahra as our daughter's daycare teacher in the 1-2 year old class at a licensed daycare, and she provided exceptional care. Zahra worked with a small group of children, and her dedication to each child was evident. She kept us updated throughout the day using the daycare app, sharing pictures of our daughter and how she was doing. This gave us peace of mind and made it clear that Zahra was deeply engaged with the children. With Zahra's help, our daughter learned important social and hygiene skills, as well as proper table manners. Our daughter would bring these lessons home, applying her learning in different settings and increasing her confidence. At the end of each day, Zahra would also provide a thorough update when we picked up our daughter. Our daughter loved going to daycare because of Zahra's genuine affection for all the kids. Zahra's warmth and attentiveness made her a standout caregiver. Our daughter also has gastrointestinal issues, and Zahra was careful to listen to our concerns regarding her care and contributed some ideas that could help with her condition, showing her thoughtful approach to each child's unique needs. We also had the chance to have Zahra babysit for us one evening so my husband and I could go on a date. Once again, Zahra impressed us with her thoughtful care. She sent updates throughout the night and even managed to get our daughter to willingly brush her teeth through fun games. Zahra brought toys and activities to keep our daughter entertained, and it was clear that she put a lot of thought into making the evening enjoyable. Zahra is such a loving and thoughtful person, and her care for our daughter showed every time she was with her. We highly recommend Zahra for any childcare needs—she's truly wonderful!
