A little bit about me
Hey! My name is Elle Belval, and I am a recent Lane Tech high school graduate! I love reading, writing, biking, and thrifting around the city! I grew up as the oldest daughter of six kids, with ages currently ranging from 7-17 years old, so I am very familiar with supervising and caring for children of all ages! Throughout high school, I participated in numerous clubs, such as the AP Physics Club and Environmental Club. I have also acted as a math/English tutor for elementary-aged kids throughout most of high school! I graduated this spring was a 4.9 GPA, and plan to attend Loyola Marymount University in the fall with an emphasis in business marketing.

A little bit about me
I have childcare experience since my youth, and took early childhood classes during college, but then concentrated on a broader field to serve families at a wider scale. After years in social services, I 'fell back' into childcare (& 'nannying'), which I've been doing for several years now, ranging from newborns to older youth & some with special needs.
I'm sensitive & adaptable to child's needs/ cues for specific needs, scheduling/ adhering to naps & also enjoy partaking in transitions/ milestones! I can do light house-keeping, local errands/ grocery shopping, laundry, bath-time, meal preparation (including introduction to solids & Baby-Led Weaning, as desired), well as engage children in fun, educational activities, community walks/ parks, etc!
Part of my philosophy is shadow a child, making sure they are safe & allowing them freedom in exploration & expression thru nurturing & creating a safe environment!
I can provide references and further detail upon an initial contact.
