About Ellen
Experience: 9 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Ellen and I am 25 years old. I started babysitting at 14, and then throughout high school worked for a family with 1 boy and 1 girl (ages 5 & 8). While in college, I worked for a family during the summers as their family grew. I started when their oldest was 6 months (now 6), with their other two children now 4 and 3 years old. This family needed some extra help and I lived in with them from April 2019-July 2020. My responsibilities included making meals, getting the kids ready for school, driving them to/from school, helping with bath/bedtime and of course making sure they had FUN and EDUCATIONAL play. Currently, I'm working for a family with 2 kids (ages 2 & 5) and I'm in charge of meals, laundry/dishes, planning fun outings/activities, and some light cleaning. Hope I can be of help to your family!

Ellen was a nanny for my two kids (1 and 4 when she started) for a year and a half, and we all miss her very much. She also used our car regularly to drive the children around. She has such a wonderful demeanor -- kind, calm, patient, reliable, and mature, and she's also great at communicating with parents. Your kids will love her, and so will you!
