This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 5 yrs
I have worked full-time, for three summers, at children's camps. At camp, I hang out with children ages 4-7. I looked after a group of 9-16 campers and led them to different activities throughout the day, facilitated lunch, played games and did team building activities. At another camp, I worked with different children each day ranging from ages 4-11. I offered extra support to children in need, helped facilitate art, science and building projects; while providing unconditional positive regard, silliness, compassion and inquiry for expanded learning. I've worked in many different settings supporting children; from vegetable garden and redwood forests to a gymnastic gym and in-home nanny. I have become as playful and spontaneous as a 4-year-old but as responsible and caring as a mother. I absolutely love children and am so blessed for their wonderful presence!
