This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 4 yrs
Hello, my name is Brittany and I'm 35 years old. I have been working as a nanny for 4 years. Prior to that I was a CNA for a decade. I love to play, color, read stories, etc. I am comfortable with as young as 4 months - up. But, majority of my experience is 5 months to 5 years old. I watched twin boys for 19 months (ages 12 months to 2. 5 years old.) So I do have experience with multiples. I know that choosing someone to watch your children is a very difficult and sometimes stressful situation. I aim to ease fears and have an open line of communication. If anything I over communicate rather than under communicate. I have excellent references available upon request. Qualifications: I have a portable background check through DCYF good until Mar 2030. Safe sleep cert through DCYF. CPR/AED/First Aid. Food handlers permit. If you feel I would be a good fit for you and your family please reach out to me! I am looking for my "for the foreseeable future" family.
We have been working with Brittany for 4 weeks now and are very pleased! We have her watching our 4 year old girl and doing some light chores and occasionally helping with our 8 week old baby. We like how reliable she is; she shows up on time every day and gets all daily tasks done. She is also very careful with staying healthy, which is also important to us with having a new baby. She is creative! I showed her where the craft supplies are and she came up with projects to do with our four year old. She also has initiative. She looked up and has found events to take my kiddo to without me having to do the brain work. She also will do extra cleaning and pick up without me needing to ask her. She does not overstep, and she makes sure to check in with me regarding plans and outings. She is great at communicating and is happy to share stories and pictures with me about my 4 year old. We also have pets that she gets along well with. My shy cat warmed up to her in just a couple days! She is also great at keeping boundaries with my 4 year old which is important to me, and is helping us encourage the use of polite phrases like 'Please Can I'. At the same time, she considers that some things are important to my four year old that might not make sense to us, like always having a washcloth available at meal times, using the purple bowl only for breakfast time, etc etc. I am enjoying having her around and definitely recommend her! She is pleasant to talk with and has been overall a great experience for us.
