Hello, Im Eli! I have had the blessing to care for children since 2016, with my professional experience beginning 5 years ago. With in the past 5 years I have care for various populations of children, including but not limited to neurodivergent children and children with physical disabilities and barriers ranging from 3 to 13. Most recently I filled in for a lead toddler teacher, caring for and teaching ages 12 months to 3 years. I have completed all of the DCYF trainings including safe sleep, I have my food handlers card I am CPR certified. While being a lead toddler teacher my understanding of how a child develops, communicates, and absorbs information deepened. One of many things I have taken away from this experience is we all have diverse sensory experiences, and those experiences impact our emotion regulation, readiness and curiosity to learn. My top priority is safety, emotional safety and physical safety.
Very reliable. We were looking for care on short notice and thankfully we were able to have them watched right away. Very understandable of our little toddlers even at times when they were difficult. We feel confident having or kids watched and highly recommend.
