Hello! My name is Elysa, and I am a former Reggio-Emilia teacher - now secretary for a school district. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with children in a classroom setting, where I learned the importance of fostering creativity, emotional intelligence, and a sense of belonging. My work has been guided by the principles of the Reggio Emilia philosophy, which encourages a child-centered approach to education and views children as competent, curious, and capable of driving their own learning. Outside of teaching, I have also babysat/nannied & provided light housekeeping for multiple families for a handful of years! Outside of my professional life I enjoy boxing, reading, cooking, spending time with family, & hiking! I look forward to meeting you & learning how I can support your family’s needs! :)
