Hello! My name is Ellie Lawrence, I recently graduated with my MBA for McKendree University and moved back home to the Tacoma area from college! While I search for my “big girl” job, I am hoping to fill some of my free time babysitting and helping some families out for the summer! More about me: I am a hardworking, kind, patient individual who loves working with kids! I am very organized and creative, I love finding new activities to do with children. I have 10 years of childcare experience total, working in-home for families and have four years of experience working in childcare, life guarding, and teaching swim lessons for Fircrest Golf Club. I even started my own business in the summer teaching private swim lessons. I have worked with children ages 0-15. I have First Aid, CPR, AED, Lifeguard, Water Safety Instructor, and Food Handling Certifications. I love animals Read more and organizing/ cleaning if you are looking for help with that as well. Most recently, I wrapped up my college nannying job (4yrs, 2yrs, 6mo) and would be happy to provide references. I have very flexible availability right now, please reach out!
