I have a lot of experience working with children and was blessed two years ago with a beautiful child of my own. My past experience includes volunteering at numerous activities involving children such as daycare and camps, as well as Special Olympics. I was an athlete for the majority of my life and enjoyed volunteering for Special Olympics every summer while in college. I have worked in daycares, athletic facilities, camps, preschools, and held several nannying/babysitting jobs over the last decade. I have two years of teaching experience in preschools as a teacher's aide and student teacher. I have been a nanny/babysitter for families with up to five children, including twins, and multiple pets at one time. My experience with children as well as the knowledge gained from specific courses related to child development led me to becoming nanny. I absolutely adore children and what they have to offer and Read more now as a mother I’ve gained even more knowledge and love for childcare.

My Husband and I interviewed Elise to be a Nanny to our 5 month old daughter. We spent just over an hour speaking with her and could really tell just how much she loves children. We could see that she was easy going yet very experienced and professional. While we ultimately went with another applicant (who had a connection to our family), we believe that Elise would make a welcome addition to anyone's home.
