Meet Elisha
- Comfortable with pets
I am an early child development teacher with over 12 years of experience. Over the course of the years I've had the good fortune to experience a myriad of teaching opportunities in child care classrooms and in private homes. The classroom experiences were optimal for structured interaction with multiple children. The in home experiences facilitated dynamic individualized care and instruction in a child's primary setting. For the past 2 1/2 years I've been providing home instruction and nanny care for families of children ranging in age from birth to 3 years, after which, my students successfully transition to preschool. I must admit I genuinely love working with infants and toddlers and it is apparent in the quality of care I provide. Many parents have kindly shared with me that they sincerely appreciate my nurturing demeanor, insight and high energy when providing care to their beloved children. I believe it is Read more my job is to create a safe and fun environment for children to explore and learn, while creating a partnership with parents to help the child (and/or children) grow to their fullest potential. I am mindful to provide honest, open and consistent communication to parents. I believe play is a natural way through which young children learn. Through play I can help children grow across the developmental domains of social and emotional, language and literacy, gross and fine motor skills as well as cognitive development. Additionally, I am practical, punctual and flexible.
