This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a 39-year-old, graduate student with 18 years of child care experience. My most recent experiences includes two amazing young humans 4 months and 6 months, the age group may seem similar but they couldn't be more different in energy- both loving yet keep me on my toes! I have done it all: Twins, multiples, boys, girls, teenagers, special needs and behavior disorders. I have also traveled and provided live-in support for a family of 6. DID I MENTION my multitasking skills are GREAT- I'd make a great house manager and/or personal assistant. When I'm not supporting a family; I'm a former professional athlete & D1 Basketball Coach. Competed in 15 seasons abroad. I've coached youth basketball (think 300+ kids with only 8-10 coaches-OMG). I believe my sports background allows me to connect with children on a whole different level. I love working with youth, advocating for them and with them, being able to share my abilities and talents with them definitely makes my job worthwhile.
We had the pleasure of interviewing Toccara as a potential nanny for our two children. She was responsive, punctual and delightful. Our daughter took an immediate liking to her and it was clear Toccara is at ease with little ones. Ultimately, we went with another candidate based on scheduling, but any family would be lucky to have Toccara care for their children.
