A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Elisa, and I absolutely love being a sitter. I started babysitting when I was 13, and since then I've gained a lot of experience working with children of all ages. I'm currently a master's student training to become a play therapist, and I enjoy every opportunity I get to play, learn, and grow alongside children. I love seeing how unique each child is and how much joy and energy they bring. I have worked in preschools, daycares, and as an ABA Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with young children. I'm organized, caring, and patient, and I know how to handle all the practical needs of children, from changing diapers to preparing meals. In past babysitting jobs, l've walked children to parks, cared for multiple children at once, cooked for them, picked them up from school, and taken them to sports practices. I'm excited to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children, and I look forward to meeting your family!
