About Elyssa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I'm an optimistic, reliable, & caring nanny seeking families in need of occasional or recurring babysitters! My college degree is in the arts & I love getting to incorporate that passion into fun crafts/activities & encourage children to explore their creativity. I recently relocated to the Raleigh-Durham area with my husband after living in Chicago for 8 yrs. I've been involved in childcare since I was young & have experience as a full-time nanny, a teacher in a Montessori school setting, and a part-time sitter for a variety of ages from 0-12 yrs. I also volunteered in my church's nursery, leading the team in creating a safe & welcoming environment for children from 8 wks. to 18 mo. My favorite part of working with kids is the opportunity to encourage their growth & see the world through their eyes as they do. My goal is always to partner with parents in fostering a fun & safe atmosphere for their children to explore. I look forward to meeting you & your family!

Elyssa had a good reference and background check, and was polite, friendly, and communicative. We had her assist as a date night sitter for our 5 month old, and we would do so again. She did a nice job.
