How to write an in-home childcare provider resume

Craft a resume summary statement

Put a resume summary on the top of your resume to highlight your accomplishments. A resume summary sums up your experience and skills, making it easy for hiring managers to understand your qualifications at a glance. Here are some tips to write a strong, impressive resume summary:

Step 1: Mention your current job title or the role you're pursuing.

Step 2: Include your years of experience in in-home childcare provider-related roles. Consider adding relevant company and industry experience as relevant to the job listing.

Step 3: Highlight your greatest accomplishments. Here is your chance to make sure your biggest wins aren't buried in your resume.

Step 4: Again, keep it short. Your goal is to summarize your experience and highlight your accomplishments, not write a paragraph.

Hiring managers spend under a minute reviewing resumes on average. This means your summary needs to demonstrate your value quickly and show why you are the perfect fit for the in-home childcare provider position.

Please upload your resume so Zippia’s job hunt AI can draft a summary statement for you.

List the right project manager skills

Your Skills section is an easy way to let recruiters know you have the skills to do the job. Just as importantly, it can help your resume not get filtered out by hiring software. Here is how to make the most of your skills section and make sure you have the right keywords:

Start with the job listing. Frequently, the keywords looked for by recruiters will be listed. Be careful to include all skills in the job listing you have experience with.
Consider all the software and tools you use on a daily basis. When in doubt, list them!
Make sure you use accurate and up to date terms for all the skills listed.

These five steps should give you a strong elevator pitch and land you some in-home childcare provider interviews.

Here are example skills to include in your “Area of Expertise” on an in-home childcare provider resume:

Nutritional Meals
Child Care
Homework Assignments
CPR
Social Development
Meal Preparation
Developmental Problems

How to structure your work experience

Next you should include your work experience. Structure your work experience section by listing your most recent experience first, followed by earlier roles in reverse chronological order.

Start with your job title, company name, city, and state on the left. Align dates in month and year format on the right-hand side.

Include only recent, relevant jobs. Avoid including work experience over 20 years to avoid ageism.

Beneath each job, you should have bullet points to emphasize why you're the perfect fit for the in-home childcare provider.

How to write in-home childcare provider experience bullet points

Your resume is not a list of responsibilities or a job description. Instead, it is your chance to show your accomplishments and show why you're good at what you do.

Use the What, How, and Why format. Answering these questions turns a bland job description into an effective showcase of your abilities.
What were your responsibilities or goals?
How did you accomplish them?
Why were your results important? (How did it impact your company? Can you quantify the results in numbers? )

Here are great bullet points from in-home childcare provider resumes:

Add an education section to your resume

Here is the best way to format your education section:

Display your highest degree first.
If you graduated over 5 years ago, put this section at the bottom of your resume. If you lack relevant work experience, the education section should go to the top.
If you have a bachelor's or master's degree, do not list your high school education.
If your graduation year is more than 15-20 years ago, it's better not to include dates in this section.

Here are some examples of good education entries for resumes:

High School Diploma

2015 - 2015

Bachelor's Degree in accounting

New York University, New York, NY

2008 - 2011

Highlight your in-home childcare provider certifications on your resume

Certifications can be a crucial part of your resume. Many jobs have required certifications.

Include the full name of the certification, along with the name of the issuing organization and date of obtainment.

Here are some of the best certifications to have on in-home childcare provider resumes:

Child Development Associate (CDA)
