A little bit about me

My name is Ella DeFrance, and I am 23 years old and from Montana. I just moved to Eugene, and am looking for work. I have a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in English and a Dance Certificate from the University of Montana in Missoula.
I have been babysitting since I was a teenager, so I have years of experience with multiple ages. For the past 3 years I have been babysitting for the same family of 2 girls. My responsibilities include picking them up from school, making dinner and snacks, and getting them ready for bed. However, because I am moving to Eugene I am looking for a new family to babysit.
I have also been a volunteer for the past 2 years through Big Brother Big Sister, and have made a strong relationship with my little who is a 3rd grader.
I also have experience working as a substitute in the school districts, and have substituted for the Special Ed classrooms.
I love to dance, read, play guitar, paint and hike! I also love animals, and speak spanish.

"Ella was our favorite sitter ever. She truly connected and played with our two girls — poems, dances, artwork, real adventures. She built warm relationships with each of them, helped them navigate their squabbles, and was loving and fun while holding age-appropriate limits. Reliable, communicative, and genuinely gifted with kids. Wish I could rehire her!"

"I highly recommend Ella DeFrance for employment. I have had the pleasure of working with Ella at Hellgate Elementary School for the past two school years. Ella first joined our school as a volunteer with the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program. Ella was an outstanding “Big” for one of our young students. In addition to her volunteer work, Ella was employed by the school district as a Substitute Teacher. In my experience, Ella has demonstrated a high level of dedication and responsibility. She exhibits a calm and warm demeanor. During her time at our school, she has shown the ability to form strong relationships and maintain a professional demeanor in her interactions with both students and staff. I highly recommend Ella as she possesses the skills to handle diverse responsibilities with grace and efficiency. Sincerely, Person Lisa Birnbaum, Ed.S, PCLC Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor Candidate"

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have years of babysitting experience, as well as experience being a substitute teacher in a Special Ed classroom.
For the past 2 years I have also volunteered at Big Brothers Big Sisters at an elementary school.
I have also taught dance classes to children, as well as lead art activities, and helped with riding lessons at Horse Therapeutic riding in Missoula Montana.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love dancing, singing, playing guitar, art projects, hiking, animals, playing games, sports, and going outside.
Anything your kid has an interest in, and I will motivate them to continue!
One thing I do not like doing with kids is screen time, and I heavily encourage kids to play instead of screen time.

My experience with special needs children...

I was a substitute teacher for a week at Hellgate elementary school for a Special Ed teacher and Para. I loved working with these kids, and grew close with several of them. Towards the end of the week they would hug me when they saw me in the hall.
