About Ellie

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm Ellie. Warm, outgoing, and the oldest of five, so I've basically been caring for kids my whole life. I officially started babysitting at 13 and have worked with kids of all ages ever since. I also have years of experience working with children and adults with special needs, including as a personal care attendant. I love how much kids teach us just by being themselves. I'm calm, dependable, and always bring a grounded, compassionate energy to the families I work with. Outside of childcare, I'm a freelance designer (I left my full-time job last June to travel and figure out what's next!). In my free time, you'll find me doing yoga, walking in nature, checking out new restaurants, or catching up with friends.

Ellie was so attentive to my two young kids, three and one, and she was able to multitask playing with them with getting meals, ready, bedtime, etc. we absolutely loved having Ellie watch our kids, she is the best!
