About Elaine

I bring experience, education and wisdom to caring for your children and making your days easier. My goal is to enrich the lives of all family members. I brought up my sons while teaching in public and private schools. I ran a licensed daycare for 10 years, and owned a licensed preschool for 13. I prefer long term commitments, working with three families in 16 years as a nanny. I look forward to every day spent with children, accompanying them as they teach us who they are! Each child is unique, with different needs and capabilities. Nurturing children as individuals shows respect, inspiring confidence and trust. Of particular interest is developing a sense of humor, which I hold is a learned attribute benefiting children throughout their lives. I also emphasize courtesy, as mannerly children are afforded more opportunities. Of import, too, is the recognition of talent. Talent is often displayed before the age of five.
