I agree that caregivers, nannies or babysitters need to be aware of the child development. It is also nice if they can have the idea about special education, so that they can able to carry out their role as the second parent of these children.
The most important quality that a child miner is ability to love children unconditionally. Without love, it is impossible to tolerate some children. Not everybody is blessed with the gift of handling children. Little children can really be mischievous and quite difficult to contain.
