About Ellie

Experience: 6 yrs

Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, fueled by six years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. My background in psychology and child development allows me to bring an informed and creative approach to every interaction. Whether we are engaging in imaginative play, tackling educational puzzles, or enjoying outdoor sports, I strive to create a calm and supportive environment. I am comfortable enforcing household rules while maintaining a friendly, approachable demeanor. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping to support your family's daily routine. I prioritize clear communication, following your preferred method to keep you updated on your child's day. I am genuinely excited to help your little ones learn, play, and thrive as part of your family.

Ellie was our nanny for 3 years. At the time we had 3 girls, 3 months, 2 and 10. She cared for the girls like they were her own. She always showed up on time, kept the house in order and made sure the girls were kept busy. We were sad when she moved away for grad school. 7 years later, she still keeps in touch with the girls. She’s become part of our family. I would highly recommend her to any family!
