About Elijah

Experience: 6 yrs

For the past six years, I've had the joy of caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I hold a college degree in Human Development and Family Studies, and I have am a current graduate student researching healthy relationships and child development. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My approach is patient and creative, and I always strive to be friendly and approachable. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and will always communicate with you using your preferred method. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family, creating a fun and supportive environment for your children to thrive.

Our family is so happy we found Elijah! They have professional experience working with young children, so we felt comfortable leaving our kids in Elijah’s very competent hands. We have a 6 year old daughter and 4 year old twin boys. My sons are autistic and nonspeaking, so finding a qualified babysitter has been challenging. Elijah was very open to learning our daily routines as well as specific communication strategies for our boys. Our kids enjoyed spending time with Elijah and we’ll definitely be hiring them again :) I’d recommend Elijah to any family with young kids, especially families with special needs.
