About Elif
Experience: 9 yrs

I studied Child Development in High School and University. I received a Montessori education certificate and Harvard University Early Childhood Development Global Strategies for Implementation certificate and a special education certificate in order to work with children with disabilities. I have worked with many children between the ages of 0-15 with different developmental characteristics. I know the developmental characteristics of children of all ages. I love children and children love me. I have very good experiences with childcare I communicate well with children, and I am patient, friendly and positive with children, I can play with children, do activities and help with their personal needs. I can help kids with their homework I can cook I can feed children or babies I can change diapers. I can put the kids to sleep and give them a bath. I take the necessary measures for the safety of children. I try to solve problems in a rational way. I can adapt easily to a new environment.

Elif worked for my family as an au pair for a year, and she was truly exceptional. She played a crucial role in my son Declan’s development, helping him meet and exceed his milestones with care and dedication. Not only is she great with children, but she is also patient, understanding, and incredibly disciplined. She follows instructions well, maintains a structured routine, and ensures that children thrive under her care. In addition to her nurturing nature, Elif is skilled in cooking and cleaning, making her an invaluable presence in any household. As a contract firefighter for the military, training new Air Force personnel, I deeply appreciated her reliability and the love she showed my son daily. She created a schedule that positively impacted his learning and behavior, making a lasting difference in his development. Though we had to part ways due to my military relocation, I would hire her again without hesitation. Finding good help is rare, but Elif is the exception—your family would be incredibly fortunate to have her. She is truly amazing and will give your child the best possible care, setting them up for success in life.
