About Elina

Hi! My name is Elina. I'm 23 years old and graduated from Utah Valley University, where I was on a full-ride scholarship playing for the women's basketball team all four years. Being a student-athlete taught me discipline, time management, and how to work under pressure. I majored in Psychology, which helped me build strong, respectful relationships with others. I currently work as a family educator, which is flexible, so I'm looking for a part-time job I enjoy. I've worked professionally with kids for over two years and have also babysat and nannied for children in foster care, as well as for friends and family. I'm the oldest of eight kids, so I've always had a motherly role, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to be nurturing. I'm also great with animals and love caring for pets. Whether I'm working with children or animals, I'm calm, reliable, and always create a safe, supportive environment.
