About Ellen

Experience: 5 yrs

I'd describe my personality as genuine, compassionate and energetic. I like working with kids because it is always a learning experience and I really appreciate how authentic they are. I'm looking for a job that allows me to teach kids good core values and self confidence while having safe/fun experiences. I started working with kids when I was in high school (2013) as a babysitter and then professionally in college as a mentor in treatment centers and as a volunteer coach for soccer teams. In my spare time, I like to hike, paddle board, do yoga, read, dance, sing and much more. I love to laugh and am usually very light hearted. I have experience as a Registered Behavior Technician doing behavioral therapy and have my certification in basic life support. I am also fully vaccinated. I have 2 years experience nannying for infants. I am a full spectrum birth doula and am passionate about working with new families. I am a certified yoga teacher as well.

Ellen is a responsible, organized, and thoughtful caretaker for my son. She has great time management and communication skills. Ellen has a genuine love of children and shares her positivity, creativity, and love in such amazing ways. She has become part of the family. She goes above and beyond expectations, has extremely strong integrity, has designed a life authentic to her values, and brings those values to my son's life, enhancing him as a human. Her love and care are second to none and the best decision I made regarding child care, was hiring Ellen!
