"Ella is one in a million. She wasn’t an “employee” she was a member of our family and always will be! Ella has the instincts and intuition that every parent looks for in a caregiver for their children. She is reliable, caring, loving, professional, trustworthy and experienced. She is great at following instructions and routine, but you will also be able to trust her to run the show. She goes above and beyond for you and your family and deserves to be treated with love and respect in return. Any family would be lucky to have her. She will love and nurture your children as her own and is overall just an amazing person! We love her so much and are going to miss her."

"Ella has been our evening and weekend sitter since she was 14! She’s watched our kids from infancy to early childhood. She is very reliable and someone that our kids have always loved. She’s responsible and knows how to handle the kiddos if they are ever having a rough time without mom and dad around. Ella is someone who truly enjoys being around the kids and taking care of them. Anyone I’ve spoken to over the years who have hired Ella as a nanny or sitter love her. Highly recommend Ella!"

"Hello, We are ella host family in Germany. She was with us for 4 month, my children were quite upset that she was leaving, but I want to take this courtesy to tell everyone how amazing and wonderful she is. Not only is ella great with my children she made sure that all my Children’s friends were included and loved by her. She is super responsible and clam under pressure. She was able to follow our instructions and parenting style exactly like we asked. I always appreciated when ella would unexpectedly cook for us and clean the house, all while keeping the kids clam and entertained. I highly recommend Ella's services, and truly believe that you would be making the right choice by hiring her as your nanny."

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love to be outside with kids, I am a very active person and love todo anything related to sports.
I also love to bake and cook and I will encourage your kids to help out in the kitchen if they are interested.
I am also very crafty and I love to do art activities, like painting, pottery, building etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I would say the most important part off being a nanny is love and patience, you have to have an endless amount of it. Those kids look up to you they watch everything you do and your job as a nanny is to love them and care for them like they are your own. Encourage Them to be their self, help them learn new things, and teach them that it is okay if they don't like something.

My experience with special needs children...

I high school I was apart of best buddies for four years, and I have babysat for quite a few children with special needs and kids with medical needs, unfortunately never have cared for them any of them long term. I do watch one little girl constantly with special needs her name is QUINN she is 3 years old, I have watched her since birth she has a condition where she cannot digest Protein and because of this she has certain developmental delays, with her I encourage her to take as much as possible and I have to to be very patient with her because she does get frustrated easily.

The most important part about being a nanny...

It's really hard for me to pick just one favorite moment because all of the moments I have with the kids I watch are special. So here is a list of my favorite moments
- when the twins went through a phase of only wanting me and would cry when I left, I hated that it would make them cry but that just told me that they considered me family even at such a young age and that I brought them a certain type of comfort
-I love the nicknames that kids give me, one little girl I watch, Quinn, calls me YA YA because she can't say my name, and another little boy I watch, Parker calls me Ellie
When I moved to Germany, the little boy I was watching, Eran, had a rough start. It took him a while to adjust to me being there. But right before I left, we had the most emotional and special moment at the train station. He just told me how much he loved me, how much he was going to miss me, and that he was going to fly to Dallas to come visit me.
