Experience: 4 yrs
As a natural caregiver, I've always been drawn to nurturing and supporting children's growth. With four years of experience, I've honed my skills in providing a safe, stimulating environment where children thrive. I'm passionate about fostering creativity, imagination, and a love for learning through engaging games, activities, and outdoor exploration. My friendly and energetic personality puts children at ease, and I maintain open communication with parents about their child's day and any concerns that arise. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring a structured routine. I'm flexible with communication methods, whether it's through daily reports, phone calls, or text messages. My background includes some college education and training in First Aid and CPR. I'm also comfortable with carpooling, assisting with light housekeeping, engaging in arts and crafts, and supervising swimming activities.
Taylor’s background and profile initially impressed us. However, our experience was less positive. Taylor first applied in March but never responded to our message asking about her comfort level working with a severely autistic, non-verbal teenager who requires full assistance, including hygiene care. When she reapplied months later, we reached out again. She apologized for the earlier lack of response and confirmed she was comfortable with high levels of behavioral support. Unfortunately, after we followed up with questions about availability, hours, and location, communication stopped again. In short, while Taylor appears qualified on paper, our experience raised concerns about follow-through and reliability.
