Meet Elena

Hi! My name is Elena. I am a practicing Social Worker and certified in adult and child CPR. I am experienced in working with children birth to 5 years of age. I've accumulated a wealth of knowledge working in various educational and social services settings such as Early Head Start, Montessori, and social services settings such as foster care group homes and residential treatment centers. I have working knowledge of typical developmental milestones. These experiences also afforded me the skills and knowledge necessary to work with children experiencing trauma, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and other behavioral needs. I am warm, funny and creative, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I am available early/late evening on weekdays, and have open availability on Sundays and Mondays. I am available in the mornings (prior to 8:00) for school drop off, however must be local to my residence or place of work!

Elena looked after my two kids while we were staying in NYC for the weekend. My kids had a lot of fun and I found Elena to be an excellent communicator, lovely, calm and reliable.
