Hi, I'm Eliza! I am a student at Virginia Tech studying Early Childhood Development and Education. I have my own vehicle and a clean driving record. I have experience caring for children from 5 weeks to 14 years. Here are some fun facts to help you get to know me! - Before coming to VT, I worked for a year as a full-time nanny for a 2-year-old! - I have done theater for the past 10 years! (Aka I love singing, dancing, performing, storytelling, make-believe, and dress-up!) - My favorite place to be is outside. Whether that means talking a walk, playing in the mud, shooting a basketball or taking on the playground, I'm in! - I LOVE Arts and Crafts. Finger painting, coloring, experiments (science is art!), jewelry making, etc; I always have a new kid-friendly craft idea brewing! - I have studied American Sign Language for four years! - My sister is Type 1 Diabetic with a severe food allergy, so I have experience caring for both. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
We had an incredible experience with Eliza. This was our first time hiring a nanny through Care.com, and she set the bar extraordinarily high. From our very first conversation, I knew she was the right match for our family. Eliza is calm, smart, and naturally engaging. Her communication with our 20-month-old son was impeccable. She balances playfulness with patience and respect for toddler dynamics. Seeing our son's face light up whenever she arrived and watching their bond develop brought us so much joy. We were lucky to have her for the summer, and we are truly sad her time with us has ended. In addition to high quality childcare, we appreciated her clear communication and flexibility for our schedule. She is a standout caregiver with a bright future ahead. I cannot recommend her highly enough to any family looking for trustworthy, attentive, and loving childcare.
