As a certified teacher and experienced childcare provider, I've dedicated the last eight years to nurturing children's growth and development. My passion for caregiving stems from my own positive babysitting experiences and the joy of supporting families. I strive to create a nurturing environment where children feel safe and inspired. I am a personable, creative, and organized person. Open communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and follow parents' preferred methods. I believe in following the parents' lead when enforcing household rules, ensuring a consistent and respectful approach to child care. From outdoor adventures to board games and puzzles, I love engaging children in a variety of fun and educational activities. With a graduate degree and training in early child development, CPR, and first aid, I'm well-equipped to handle any situation. I'm also happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and supervising swimming ac

I highly recommend Ella as an exceptional caregiver for children. Ella has been providing outstanding care for my two daughters for several years (we recently moved states), and I cannot express enough how grateful we are for her dedication, kindness, and professionalism. From the very beginning, Ella has shown an incredible ability to connect with both of my daughters, understanding their individual needs and preferences. She creates a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where my children feel comfortable and happy. Her creativity and energy are boundless, and she always has engaging activities planned that not only entertain but also educate and inspire them. Ella's reliability and punctuality are impeccable. She consistently arrives on time and is always prepared for the day with a smile on her face. Her communication skills are excellent; she keeps us informed about the day’s activities and any important details regarding our daughters' well-being. One of the many qualities that set Ella apart is her genuine passion for caregiving. She goes above and beyond to ensure that my daughters are not just cared for, but truly thriving. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing playdates, or simply being a comforting presence, Ella does it all with love and patience.
