About Ellen

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them learn through play is very important im childcare. I've sucessfully raised my 3 children & have 10 years of paid experience. I offer a patient, calm, and creative environment for up to two children. I also care for 2 years old and under at my church during services. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and crafts to support your family's daily routine . I was a line cook in 4 star restaurants for 20 years, so am well versed in nutrition and all types of food preparation. I also volunteer at the local food pantry, have knowledge of first aid , and pharmacy technician experience. I prioritize open communication, and am happy to provide updates in person or via texts. I am always ready to follow your lead on household rules to ensure consistency for your children. I am dedicated to providing reliable, attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones.

I would highly recommend Ellen!! She always gives my kiddos lots of attention and spends hours playing dolls and princess with my daughter. She always makes sure my boys get lots of attention too. Overall I’ve been extremely satisfied with her and she is definitely at the top of my list when we have plans and need a top notch babysitter.
