This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I understand the value of love & cherish the families who share their lives with me. My preferred caretaking style is conscious and have found it to be the most effective in establishing mutual respect. I am reliable, trustworthy, attentive & provide little buddies with comfort while encouraging independence. I am able to meet people on their level regardless of age and/or mind-state & have them feel at home with me. I prefer to be outside & would much rather nurture exploration than sit them down in front of a screen. I love the ocean, hiking, camping, eating/cooking healthy, reading, music, manners & treating everyone including all animals respectfully. I try to model leaving things in better shape than how I find them. My recent employment has been doing crisis intervention for community members (& visitors) experiencing trauma. Now more than ever I believe in autonomy, empowerment, and clear communication for all ages, cultures and genders.

Libby came into our lives in 2021. She took care of our toddler and preschooler for several months on a consistent basis while we needed extra support. Libby is a deeply empathetic, patient, reliable and emotionally tuned-in caregiver. There is a peace about her that is both calm and strong. She was able to soothe my children when they had difficulty with goodbyes, and prioritized being outside and engaging in their interests. Not only was she a wonderful babysitter, but also kept the house clean and tidy where she had been with the kids (e.g. bathroom and kitchen). I would highly recommend Libby to any family seeking compassionate and attuned childcare.
