TeacherCare is exactly what it sounds like. Teachers who really care. My kids developed such great relationships with the teachers we were fortunate to find through TeacherCare’s careful curation process. They went so far above and beyond the care and safety of our kids. They really educated them. Academics were part of that but taking responsibility for taking care of themselves, our house, and staying organized too. Best of all they really engaged with our kids and organized fun and creative things to do together. This was especially important to me because as an educator and founder I knew they were doing the things I would be doing to ensure they were growing and exploring the world.

We would be in serious trouble without Samantha. She is fantastic. When Samantha joined our family, we were in crisis. We had two 12 week premature babies in the hospital and a daughter who desperately needed someone special to care for her.

William has cerebral palsy and does not walk or talk. When I hired Brandi, I explained I was looking for someone who would push him and help him achieve his full potential…Brandi has gone above and beyond my expectations…She is a true partner in raising my children to be the best they can be.

Terry has shaped the lives of our children in so many ways, responding to each of them uniquely and personally in every area (socially, emotionally, and cognitively) every moment of the day. She understands each child’s developmental level and is in tune to their individual needs.

Amanda has far surpassed our hopes and expectations. The girls are learning –and enjoying learning– at an amazing clip. No way they would be this engaged in learning in a regular school setting, and no way they would be learning at as organic a pace as they are now. Amanda comes up with innovative and fun ways to help the girls… and the support she gets from your organization is great. We love that she takes advantage of the books, consulting with colleagues who also with TC and the like.”

We couldn’t be happier with the care Oliver is receiving. Maddy is very attentive, conscientious, and caring to our son Oliver. She is great about communicating with us what Oliver is up to and what skills he’s developing… She plans out lessons (activities) and she’s always “teaching” talking through everything. Oliver is always excited to see her.

No parent could ask for more. Christy came to our family when our lives were upside down. We had just relocated across the country and had also just learned that our son’s compromised immune system would keep him from participating in a classroom setting or joining the extracurricular activities that are part of most 6 year old boys’ lives. You can bet that we were looking for someone very special. When I opened the door to see a smile that literally lights up the room, I knew that Christy would bring that warmth to our son’s life.

I learn so much from Julie. If we searched the world over, we could not find anyone better for our baby. Both my husband and I learn so much from Julie and really feel she is worth her weight in gold. She has become an integral part of our family.

Rosalind is amazing. She and Abigail delight in one another. As new parents, we were especially cautious in choosing a childcare provider. We personally spoke with several of the families she has worked with, as she is an over 10 year TeacherCare veteran. Each family gave her superior ratings.

Courtney is a motivated, caring teacher. Courtney has been a blessing to our family and we continue to enjoy her influence around our 3 children, as well as us. She is a motivated, caring teacher who’s love of teaching has changed our lives forever.

I knew Kristin would be a tremendous teacher for our son based on her child-care philosophy, training and education and genuine concern for the well-being of children. I am forever grateful and indebted to Kristin for the positive developments he has mastered at such a young age.

Jackie ‘gets us’ and has seamlessly integrated into our world… She listened closely to our needs early on, and has done everything she can to exceed our expectations….we expect a super-high-quality experience for our children and for our home – something WAY beyond a typical child-care arrangement. Jackie has blown us away.

Noelle was fantastic and served wonderfully as both a teacher and a nurturer for our son. Noelle helped us through a very difficult time and, because of the outstanding job she did, Henry is very successful in school now.

We originally hoped to find a grandmother-like caregiver. During the interview, we knew Aimee was the one when our extremely reserved 3-year old walked over to Aimee and put his head on her lap. Thank you TeacherCare. We have sent many families to you and hope they were as lucky as we are!

Kaitlin is creative, patient, and very skilled at teaching the whole person, which is a real winning combination. The boys are busy doing everything from science experiments to craft projects to practicing writing letters and numbers right now. She is a true partner when it comes to looking out for the boys’ best interests and promoting their development. We could not have envisioned a better fit than Kaitlin, for our family.

Laura has been with our family since our oldest was 3 months old. It is now impossible to picture our life as a family without her…As a school administrator who evaluates teachers as a part of my job, I have found that the most effective teachers are those that have the ability to anticipate a student’s action or response…and seize that moment. Laura seizes such moments with our two little boys each and every day.

We could not imagine a better caregiving environment. We feel very fortunate to have found Ms. Jennifer through TeacherCare, and based on that experience, eagerly refer other parents to TeacherCare every opportunity we get. Our daughters have grown and blossomed in Ms. Jennifer’s care. She has been with the girls through every major developmental stage from crawling and walking to talking and now pre-reading…We always know that the girls are have fun and enriching days.

I interviewed close to 50 people before I found Kristin. Ms. Kristin is not only the PERFECT teacher and caregiver – she is an amazing playmate for Camron…She is compassionate and caring and uses every interaction with Camron as a learning opportunity. There is no way I can ever compensate Ms. Kristin for the quality of time she spends with Camron when I am not able to be there.

Becoming a TeacherCaregiver has been more rewarding than I ever could have imagined. The relationship that forms between teacher and family is an unbelievable kinship that expands further than work expectations. I have been working with Madelyn for a month now, and upon arriving everyday I know two things: the new day will be even more interesting than the previous day, and her eagerness to learn and explore the world will inspire me to be a better catalyst as each day turns into anew. Madelyn and I have daily routines that are broken up by weekly lesson plans which vary in themes that all focus on social & emotional, language & literacy, creative & cognitive, and physical skills. We begin our days with warm acquainting where Madelyn is allowed time to warm up to me again and adjust to the new day, after this half hour time slot we begin the days activities which are all broken down into 20 minute increments so that we can maximize on our total days time with enrichment activities. Throughout the course of the day we read several books to expand her vocabulary and imagination as well as incorporate new arts & crafts activities, sensory exploration games, dance & sing song, toddler exercises, and an outdoor activity consisting of a nature walk, or visit to a park. My TeacherCaregiver experience has been amazing and I’m learning skills now that will ensure me becoming an excellent parent in the future. I would suggest TeacherCare to anyone looking for a quality individualized education in the home for their child.

TeacherCare really does find a kid that matches your experience. I had experience working with autism and other special needs kids and they were able to find a family that had a child with autism that was a really good fit for me. The family I work for is great and TeacherCare is really helpful in getting you started. I would recommend going through this company.

TeacherCare helped me to find a great family to work for as I transitioned out of working in a school. I was able to work one on one with a boy on the autism spectrum who I absolutely adore. I have so many fond memories from the experience. TeacherCare was incredibly professional and provided me with an experience to apply my education and work on a more individual level with a child and family that treated me with love and care. Thank you!

I was a preschool teacher looking to make a cross country move. Somehow Jessica knew I was exactly what one of her clients was looking for and visa versa. It’s been three years and I’m still working with this wonderful TeacherCare family. TeacherCare was very supportive through the entire relocation process and after, and I’m still blown away at how Jessica knew this match would work. The move changed my life, and I’m grateful every day that I took the chance at this opportunity!

I am a teacher nanny and have LOVED working with the TeacherCare team. They were incredibly helpful in finding a family that met my needs and matching our personalities. I appreciate their mission and their continued support after this job placement.

TeacherCare is an excellent agency and I couldn’t be happier that I chose them to help me find the perfect family! I was a nanny moving to New York City and in search of a family that was fitting to my teaching style, and personality, and helpful through the stressful process of the move. TeacherCare found me a perfect match! Everyone I spoke to was friendly and very helpful throughout the entire process. Their communication is outstanding. They are always there if I need assistance and occasionally call and check in to make sure everything is going well. They were able to offer me a multitude of families in which I was able to select one that was a good fit! I definitely recommend TeacherCare if you are a nanny in search of a job. I would also recommend TeacherCare to families looking for nannies because the interviewing and screening process was very in depth and thorough; I trust that TeacherCare selects only the best candidates as well as the best families among the vast amount of applicants they receive.

Finding and working for Teachercare has truly been a blessing for me. Working as a full-time teacher and graduate school student pursuing a Master in School Psychology, I was barely keeping my head above the water- there just weren’t enough hours in the day! Teachercare has provided me with a full-time job with a wonderful family that appreciates and values my experience as a teacher. I can focus on my school work AND work in a child-related job that has enhanced my experience in a meaningful, productive manner. Teachercare is a well-structured platform that allows those who want to be more than a babysitter or nanny with meaningful and enjoyable employment opportunities. The TeacherCare representatives are excellent communicators and great listeners- they really took everything I was looking for in a job and found the perfect family for me! Families can also feel at rest because TeacherCare does almost all of the legwork in ensuring that all teachers are qualified through thorough interviewing, screening, and matching communicated wants/needs. As an additional benefit, TeacherCare representatives are always available to both families and teachers to mediate or communicate additional needs or concerns. I am constantly recommending TeacherCare to families and teachers who value meaningful, supportive and loving child care.

TeacherCare helped me find a great career, and to navigate the process of setting up fair parameters to do that work. I am so grateful to have found a perfect fit with a family, schedule, and pay that work for me. I don’t think I could have done this nearly as well on my own in a new city. It was such a comfort to have them help me through the process.

Having provided childcare in a center-based setting, I have come to realize that in a child’s mind, there is no place like home. TeacherCare allows greater individual attention and awareness of a child’s needs and characteristics. I can create a truly individualized learning environment!

I provide children with confidence as they learn about the world. Each child’s strengths and natural abilities are windows to their learning. I help children build a strong foundation for the future. How? I find out how the child learns (i.e. through auditory, visual, tactical, etc.) and then shape instruction through a combination of these elements. When I work one-on-one with a child, and with a parent’s support, the young child develops a broader perspective on life and learning than he or she might in a group setting. Together, the benefits are exponential.

I was in a wonderful Kindergarten classroom for 6 years and I loved it, but I never felt like I could give extra attention to specific areas of learning because just as we got started on something, it was time to move on to the next project. Now I have the ability to tailor lessons specifically for one one-on-one situations for Avery and Liam without constraints. At home, we focus not only on cognitive development, but we work on everything – responsibility in their daily life, using good manners at the dinner table, practicing piano and guitar, developing physical skills and more! Being a TC is so fulfilling – and I’m learning more every day too!

I incorporate developmental activities that encourage early literacy, math, science, and social skills through activities based on the child’s interests. I also encourage social-emotional skills such as identifying feelings and modeling problem-solving skills and good manners. I love working with children and enjoy the experience of working one-to-one in the home. Children can be themselves at home and I can create fun, developmental activities that are personalized for the children’s needs and interests.

I am fascinated by the individual development of each child. As a TeacherCaregiver, I can plan care and education around each child’s needs and strengths emotionally, cognitively, and physically. This allows me to support each stage of the child’s development.
I can be creative as I offer the highest quality of learning! I can offer a child-centered atmosphere and continually reassess the needs and interests of the child to make things fun and stimulating.

Play is the best ways to instill a lifelong love of learning. It is the most natural and powerful form of learning. I have been working with children and families for decades. It is my passion and expertise. Most of my professional experience is providing services at home. I approach each child with a tremendous amount of respect and gentleness. TeacherCare shares my early education values and my philosophy of working with children and families.”
