F.A.Q

We don’t just hire caregivers—we handpick them through a rigorous, multi-step selection process that ensures they meet our highest standards of safety, professionalism, and heart. 1. Only the Best Can Join Our Team We look for individuals who have a true passion for childcare, not just a job. Every caregiver must have: ✔ Proven experience in childcare (nannying, teaching, daycare, or special needs care) ✔ Impeccable references from past families, employers, or childcare centers ✔ Up-to-date First Aid & CPR certification ✔ A clear criminal record check (including vulnerable sector screening) ✔ A warm, nurturing personality that makes kids feel safe and loved We only hire caregivers we would personally trust with our own children. If they don’t meet our standards, they don’t work with us—no exceptions. ​ 2. Training, Testing & Continuous Learning We don’t stop at experience—we build it. Every Unicorn Family Care provider must complete our exclusive online training program and pass all required exams before they ever step foot in your home. Our training includes: ✔ Child safety & emergency preparedness – First aid, CPR, and handling real-life emergency scenarios ✔ Child development & age-appropriate care – Understanding the needs of infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and older kids ✔ Behavior management & emotional support – Gentle discipline, conflict resolution, and positive reinforcement strategies ✔ Inclusivity & special needs care – Compassionate, patient, and expert care for children of all abilities We also provide ongoing training, refresher courses and exams to ensure our caregivers stay at the top of their game. ​ 3.
