A little bit about me

Hi my name is Elyssia. I live and work in north seattle. I currently work at a daycare/learning center. I’m also working on my on teaching certificate to further my education and career. I have experience with children from infants to children all the way up into middle school. I also spent time mentoring at risk youth and tutoring. I have a passion for this field and believe early childhood development and education is vital to their success. I’ve learned every child and family has their specific needs and values and do my best to accommodate that. I appreciate my job now but enjoy nannying and creating long term relationships with families.
