About Elsa
Experience: 8 yrs
Nanny notes Hi! My name is elsa I am 27 years old and living in Fishtown!! I moved to Philadelphia April 2023 from Minneapolis. I have been in the child care business for over 8 years. I have experience of 4 years in after school day care and summer camps, and for the past 4 years I have been nannying for families! I am currently enrolled at Temple for the Early Childhood Education Major with goals to become a Prek- Kindegarten teacher after graduating. I have a deep passion for being a safe and fun environment for kids to grow up around and to learn through experience. My philosophy in child raising is deeply rooted in child lead learning, independence, relationships with the community, being in touch with nature, learning healthy ways to emotionally regulate and to think freely for themselves! Currently I am looking for older kids maybe in school for any after school care as I am also in school during the day monday- wednesday and thursday's are open all day.
Most recent review
Elsa watched our son part time for 1.5 years between the age of 7 months and 2 years. Our son adores Elsa and she grew to feel like one of the family. Beyond being responsible and diligent, Elsa was a source of creativity and play for our son — coming up with developmentally appropriate activities and taking him on adventures all around the city. We felt safe with him in her care. She was even calm, level headed and trained for a real choking incident. It’s obvious Elsa loves children and has a real way with them. She gets on their level and really met my son where he was at every day. She was very responsive and respectful of how we wanted our son to be raised and asked thoughtful questions on our preferences. Elsa was also incredibly communicative about our son — his schedule, anything she noticed in his behavior, things he was enjoying, etc. Elsa did a lot of meal prep and snack planning for us which was an enormous help on days we were busy with our newborn and working. Elsa was a real joy to work with and a real asset as a childcare provider for our son. She will be missed by all of us!!
