Hi, I'm Zella! I'm a reliable and engaging caregiver with a strong background in child development. I studied Child Psychology in college and have several years of babysitting and nannying experience. While I've recently taken some time away from caregiving to focus on my career as a business consultant for a Big 4 consulting firm, I truly miss working with children and am excited to reconnect with families! I'm comfortable supporting one to multiple children across a wide age range, supporting household chores and cooking, and engaging children in fun and creative activities like outdoor sports, games, and crafting. I am very active myself - I play for a professional ultimate frisbee team and enjoy keeping kids engaged and moving. I will communicate with you using your preferred method. Knowing that I can positively impact a child's life brings me so much joy, and I would love to share my enthusiasm with your family, so please reach out. Excited to meet you!
Zella is exceptional and a burst of light! She fulfills everything I would want in a caretaker for my children. Responsible, kind, caring, knowledgeable, and funny! My children enjoy her company and get eager to spend time with her again. I highly recommend her.
