A little bit about me
Hello my name is Elena, and in the start of my career I worked at an Early Childhood Center working with children with autism. At the beginning of this year I then worked at a Montessori School working with children from the ages of 3 months to six years old. At the school I learned how to follow the child's needs while guiding them though work time.

A little bit about me
With over a decade of childcare experience, I bring warmth, creativity, and a playful spirit to every family I work with. I spent three years at a preschool and have been babysitting for ten years. Being around kids has always been the most fulfilling experience for me, and I love fostering their creativity and confidence. I try to paint, draw, or collage daily, love music and dance parties, and believe laughter is the greatest thing in the world. I also do stand-up comedy and embrace silliness to make kids feel safe and joyful. My background as a filmmaker and my work curating hot sauces for Hot Ones have strengthened my leadership and problem-solving skills. I also love yoga, sandwiches, and encouraging kids to explore their interests. Originally from San Francisco and now in NYC, I strive to create a fun, enriching environment where children feel supported and excited to learn.
