About Michelle

Experience: 6 yrs

Hello, I go by "Ellie"! Creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children is my passion. With over five years of experience caring for children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers, I've developed a patient, creative, and friendly approach. I hold a college degree in marketing and have CPR and BLS knowledge. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational games that make learning fun. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and always communicate with parents using their preferred method. I am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, crafts, and sports supervision. Supporting families and making a positive impact on children's lives brings me immense joy, and I look forward to sharing my skills with your family.

Ellie has been such a blessing to our family! As a mom of two, it can be hard to find someone you fully trust with your kids, but Ellie quickly put us at ease. She is responsible, caring, and so naturally good with children. Both of my kids absolutely love spending time with her — she keeps them engaged with fun activities, helps out with homework, and is patient even on the toughest days. I also appreciate how reliable she is and that she goes the extra mile to keep things tidy around the house. Knowing my children are safe, happy, and cared for with Ellie gives me such peace of mind. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
