About Ellen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I've been working with children for over 13 years and nannying full time for more than seven. I've worked with children from 2 months old all the way up through elementary! I love helping kids learn about the world and themselves. My nanny philosophy is that it's our job to show kids how the world around them works and give them the confidence they need to become their favorite version of themselves! I believe kids of all ages should get as much time playing outside as possible, weather permitting. I love taking kiddos on adventures to libraries, classes, and museums as well as staying in for a rainy day craft session! I also love getting kids excited to help around the house and cooking yummy treats! I have extensive experience with pets and am a firm believer in teaching kids how to be kind and respectful to animals. If I sound like a good fit for your family please reach out. I look forward to meeting you!
