About Eli

Hi, I'm Eli (he/they)! Engaging with children has always been a passion of mine; I believe they can teach us so much about curiosity, authenticity, & love. I feel honored to have 8 years of providing them a safe space to be themselves, while also aiding development of language, emotion regulation, & social skills. Some of my values are compassion, flexibility, creativity, & education. Something that sets me apart is my background in musical theatre; I include acting, dancing, singing, and imagination when caring for kids (i. e. I'm GREAT at make believe). My favorite activities with kids are playing imagination games, arts & crafts, having fun outside, and anything music, of course! I've cared for many children ages 2 months - 13 yrs old, & I have classroom teaching experience with ages ranging from infancy to high school. CPR/First Aid certified, good w/ pets, non-smoker, drug & alcohol free. I can tutor, cook, clean, organize, & care for pets. I look forward to connecting with you!
