This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 7 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
For the past 7 years I have cared for infants and toddlers in a home setting supplemented by fun field trips to explore the wonders of life. I am vaccinated and boosted and completed an infant and toddler CPR course in NYC in March, 2020 and in March, 2017. Helping children move through different stages of early development as they learn to sit, cral, walk, talk and use the potty are aspects of being a nanny which I love. The work has utilized my common sense and good judgement, my sense of humor, my love of adventure and the arts, my cooking, time management and organizational skills, and my interest in language and reading. My experience thus far has centered on ages 2 months to 3 years old.

Ellen has been wonderful with our 4yo son, whom she has babysat intermittently since he was around 2.5yo. As a talented artist, she always has clever art activity ideas for them to do together and enjoys taking him to museums too. She never dumbs down an activity, and I think our son can sense the respect that she has for him at every stage of development. Ellen will never just put a child on an iPad or other device to occupy them -- time with her is quality from start to finish.
