About Elaina
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
By focusing exclusively on supporting the development of sensitively responsive, purposeful habits and structured schedules to facilitate the growth and development of your youngest family member (not cleaning), I create secure, loving bonds with children in my care. Through the stability of our routines, I offer preverbal infants early exposure to several languages, music, books, time outdoors and the benefits of learning to confidently enjoy their burgeoning independence by using ASL to communicate their needs and desires. I absolutely do not offer any housekeeping services or driving at all and do not take on-demand bookings (please contact me directly with pertinent details). For November and December, I am seeking 1 MV, SV or LA family in need of morning care for their infant on Mon and Fri between 8 a.m. and 1 pm, and always families for occasional weekday date nights or Saturday morning! Caltrain accessible families only, as I commute from Morgan Hill by train.

Elaina has been such an amazing support to me and my 9 month old daughter B. B's face lights up when Elaina arrives and she completely enjoys the day of lovely adventures. Elaina is extremely punctual and reliable. She has education in baby / child development and as a first time mom I learn things from her all the time. She has helped me confidently do BLW and setup a daily routine that has helped with naps and bedtime and much more. Elaina brings different age appropriate clean toys for my little one to develop and grow. For example: teaching her the pinch grasp, learning to crawl and putting weight on legs, putting shapes into holes and learning object permanence and much more. Elaina is a super kind person and has a really calming energy. I know when I leave B. with her, she is not only safe and having all her needs met, but also being challenged for her age in a way that supports her development. I would recommend Elaina 100%. B. and I love our Ms Elaina days!
