Meet Ellen
- Speaks English and Spanish
- Comfortable with pets
I recently graduated from Northwestern University, and I currently work there as a research coordinator. I work full-time from 9-5 and thus am interested in working with families who are looking for sporadic coverage for date nights, evenings and weekend times. I am also available to watch children over the weekends, including staying overnight if parents are looking for a weekend away. I have been babysitting for over 10 years since I was twelve, watching kids ranging in age from two to ten years old. I have watched single children as well as families with multiple kids, and am comfortable with both. Additionally, I have worked as a day care counselor for two summers, working very closely with children aged 1 to 6 years old throughout all aspects of their daily activities.
