Hi! My name is Elliott but I go by Ellie, and I am currently a college student at SIU studying Special Education. I have always loved working with children and have several years of experience through babysitting, nannying, and working in childcare. I currently work at a daycare and also get hands-on experience working with students with disabilities through my college program and clinical placement. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy getting to know each child and finding things that they enjoy. I am comfortable caring for children with different personalities, abilities, communication styles, and support needs. I have experience caring for multiple children at once as well as children with special needs. I am patient, caring, dependable, and energetic. I enjoy doing crafts, playing games, going outside, helping with routines, and finding activities that are fun and appropriate for each child. My Special Education coursework has also given me experience with behavior supports, communication needs, accommodations, and adapting activities for different abilities. I am always willing to learn a family's routines and the specific needs of their child so that they can feel comfortable and confident while their child is in my care.

Hi there! I'm Oyin.
