About Ella

Experience: 3 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families is my passion. I'm eager to inspire children's creativity and provide a safe, supportive environment for them and their families. I have three years of experience caring for children and am comfortable with around three children at a time. My babysitting through teenage years, experience as an overnight camp director, and currently an after school teacher for tk-5 has given me much experience with many types of children! I am patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I enjoy playing board games, doing crafts, reading, and going on adventures with kids. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules, following the parents' lead. I can provide regular updates via text, or the parents' preferred communication method. I am happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, and carpooling. I look forward to creating a fun and enriching experience for your little ones, and I hope to bring peace of mind to your family.
