A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Ellie! I've loved kids for as long as I can remember. I started babysitting and nannying at 12 and have never really stopped, with childcare experience that spans daycare work, supporting youth in care settings, and plenty of hands-on babysitting along the way. I studied Child, Adult and Family Services at Iowa State University and am currently in school for my education degree, so I combine real knowledge of early childhood development with genuine hands-on experience. Growing up with 60 first cousins (yes, really) and adoring my own niece, I've spent my whole life around kids of all ages and it's just part of who I am. I'm responsible, outgoing, and dedicated, and families can count on me to show up, stay engaged, and make every day feel safe and fun. I also love animals, so pets are always a welcome bonus! I'd love the chance to bring my experience, patience, and enthusiasm to your family.

"Ellie is a natural when it comes to interacting with kids of all ages. She specifically helped me with babysitting my daughter as young as 3 months old until her current age of 18 months. Ellie is nurturing by nature and is a very responsible, trustworthy person. She is intentional about the time she spends with my daughter, whether it is entertaining her with toys or reading books. She is capable of feeding her (both as an infant and as a toddler) and is able to get her down for naps/bedtime. She also takes great care of the house when we are gone so we come home to a cleaned up environments. Any family would be blessed to have Ellie as a nanny!"

More About Me

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

Worked in childcare, Youth specialist, babysitting, taking care of my niece/cousins

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love arts and crafts, being outdoors, hands on learning, reading, play time, movies, museums, going to the park and finding new fun activities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being a nanny is about earning a family's trust and then honoring it every single day-keeping their children safe while genuinely showing up for them, not just supervising. Building a real connection so the child feels seen and cared for, staying open and honest with parents so we're always on the same page, and bringing patience and consistency even on the hard days. At the end of it all, a good nanny isn't just reliable but someone the whole family feels lucky to have.

My experience with special needs children...

I have some experience in SPED. I worked in the neurodevelopment unit at ellipsis (youth treatment center) and was a big sister for Big Brother and Big Sisters organization. I do not have any certifications or specific learning.
