Experience: 10 yrs
My 10 years of home childcare and elder care experience, combined with my college degrees in Nursing and Early Child Development , have equipped me to provide engaging and supportive care for children or adults of all ages. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I enjoy playing educational games that promote learning. I'm happy to follow your lead on household rules and communicate with you in your preferred way about your child's day. I am also certified in CPR, Neonatal Resuscitation and First Aid as a retired Registered Nurse for many years. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children at a time, including twins. I can assist with cooking, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision ( former lifeguard!). I am also comfortable around pets. As a doula, I am equipped to help you with your new baby! I am ready to make a positive impact on your child's life, and I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your family.
Mrs. Elaine has been watching our four month old since she was two months. She is so patient and calming, even though our girl can be a bit fussy! Knowing our baby is in such excellent and experienced hands made going back to work significantly easier. She’s been very flexible with scheduling and is on time (or early) every time. As an added bonus: our many pets love her, too!! We feel very lucky to have her with our family!
