This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 5 yrs
I have professional experience working with children from infants to teens. Infancy and toddler years are my primary focus, but I am happy to continue working beyond that stage to stay with a growing child or a growing family! I am currently working in a short-term nanny position, and am looking for another family to work with starting in or after July 2025. One "version" of me is a fox character, consorting with corvids and faeries! For several years, I attended events in-costume as the caregiver for a fellow performer's child, so that baby and parent could travel together while baby had dedicated attention and care. I work to include the independence taught in Montessori schooling, rhythms present in Waldorf education, and developmentally appropriate risky play found in Nature-Based Education. I want to learn more about each of these styles of education and formally study child development, and would be excited to find a temporary or part-time position which allows me to do so.
