Hello, I’m Elisabeth and I’m an Alexandria native!   I’m a kind, compassionate, and caring person that has experience in all aspects of childcare. My background in childcare started when I was 12.  I worked as a pre-school assistant in high school & college while taking early childhood development classes then worked for Fairfax County Public Schools before starting my own family of 3 now grown children. I aslo have experience with Aspergers, Autism, & Alzheimer's. I have worked with children most of my life and absolutely love it. I volunteer working with children of all ages teaching them horticulture & growing vegetables. In my free time, I enjoy biking, hiking, kayaking, cooking and time with my family & friends. I am so excited to meet your family and my hope, in my time with you, is to create a lasting impact through care, attention, learning and fun! I appreciate you Read more taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon.
