About Eliza
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! I go by Nyxie (they/them/fae). I have 15+ years of experience caring for children from infancy through the teen years as a nanny, babysitter, ESL teacher, special needs tutor, and preschool program assessor. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in English and Spanish, and conversational in French and Mandarin Chinese. My caregiving style is child-led, trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and play-based. I love creating engaging, developmentally appropriate experiences through outdoor play, art, reading, healthy cooking, and mindfulness. I strive to foster independence, emotional regulation, and a strong sense of safety and belonging. I value open communication with families and work best when trusted to lead during scheduled hours, creating a consistent, warm, and joyful environment where children can thrive.
Most recent review
I worked with Elizabeth at an elementary school where I observed her working with small children who were in special education. She is kind, patient, and nurturing. Children seem to gravitate toward her and she is able to maintain calm even in difficult situations. She is responsible and is able to communicate with parents and educators alike. Without a doubt, I trust Elizabeth's character and skill set when working with children of all ages.
