About Ellie

Hi, I'm Ellie! I'm 25 years old and originally from Nevada City, CA, but moved to Stockton this year. I have been babysitting since I graduated high school and spent 5 years working at a school as an assistant teacher in a Transitional Kindergarten class, as well as a caregiver in the K-8 afterschool program. I was known by most kids as "that funny teacher who draws all the pictures," which sums me up pretty well! I love relating to kids through telling jokes and making them laugh to create a stronger bond. I spend most of my free time drawing, painting, and working with clay, and love sharing that with kids as well! At the school, I would have a line of kids, every single day, waiting to request a custom coloring page. I have even taught many kids some basic drawing skills which I love. It warms my heart to be a part of a child's growth creatively, socially, and mentally within themselves. Seeing a child succeed is truly a gift! :)
