About Elyssa
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I'm an optimistic, reliable, & caring nanny looking for a family to join in a full- or part-time capacity. My college degree is in the arts & I love getting to incorporate that passion into fun crafts/activities & encourage children to explore their creativity. I am currently a nanny for an infant who I have worked with since they were 3 months old. I have been involved in childcare since I was young & have experience as both a full-time nanny, a teacher in a Montessori school setting, as well as a part-time sitter for a variety of ages from 0-12 years. I also volunteered in my church's nursery, leading the team in creating a safe & welcoming environment for children from 8 wks. to 18 mo. My favorite part of working with kids is the opportunity to encourage their growth & see the world through their eyes as they do. My goal is always to partner with parents in fostering a fun & safe atmosphere for their children to explore. I look forward to meeting you & your family!

Elyssa had a good reference and background check, and was polite, friendly, and communicative. We had her assist as a date night sitter for our 5 month old, and we would do so again. She did a nice job.
