Experience: 6 yrs
As a caregiver with six years of experience, I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development. I'm patient, calm, and creative, making it easy for me to connect with children and provide a nurturing environment. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and communicating with parents about their child's day or any issues that arise through written daily reports, verbal communication at pickup, and regular updates. I love playing outdoor sports and physical games, board games and puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. I'm also a certified teacher with early child development coursework, and I'm comfortable with pets. I'm willing to help with cooking and meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. The best part of my job is seeing the children in my care thrive and learn new things. I'm excited about the opportunity to meet you and your family and provide a safe, nurturing environment for your child.
Shomari is responsible and attentive and did a great job taking care of our 6 month old. She had a calming and loving presence, and was immediately able to bond and make our little one feel comfortable and relaxed. She engaged her with books, puzzles, toys, and was also able to get her down for naps when she needed. She was even able to get her to take a bottle while she has been on a bottle strike! Highly recommend working with Shomari - thanks for taking such great care of our little one!
