A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Eli! Engaging with children has always been a passion of mine; I believe they can teach us so much about curiosity, authenticity, & love. I feel honored to have over 5 years of providing them a safe space to be themselves, while also aiding development of language, emotion regulation, & social skills.
Some of my values are compassion, flexibility, creativity, and education. Something that sets me apart is my background in musical theatre; I include acting, dancing, singing, and imagination when caring for kids (i. e. I'm GREAT at make believe). My favorite activities with kids are playing imagination games, arts & crafts, having fun outside, and anything music, of course!

I've cared for many children ages 2 months - 13 yrs old, and I have classroom teaching experience with ages ranging from infancy to high school. CPR/First Aid certified, good with pet non-smoker, drug & alcohol free. I can tutor, cook, clean, organize, & care for pets. I look forward to connecting with you!

A little bit about me

A bit about me: I am 33 and was born and raised here in San Diego. I’m very active and enjoy photography, being with my family, painting, practicing mindfulness, yoga and am constantly trying to improve myself mentally l, spiritually and physically.

My child care and child education experience first started working as a camp leader for a few years at the YMCA as well as multiple elementary schools. I started off in early education as an aide and I fell in love with toddlers so I went back to school to get my 12 early education units and became a teacher for 2 year olds. During the past 9 years, I have spent hours learning through in person and virtual trainings and workshops to improve my skill as a teacher and child care provider.

A little bit about me

Hi! I am reliable, trustworthy and organized individual. I went to Indiana University to study Elementary Education to further educate myself on young children. I started babysitting when I was 13yr and continued to nanny/babysit through college. A job that sticks out to me the most was during COVID. The ages were 3 months, 4 and 6. I was working 5 days a week cooking, cleaning, laundry, were jobs expected. I followed this family when they moved from Chicago to San Diego to help assist with the move and take care of the children. I believe my best trait is that I absolutely adore children. I have learned a lot through the years and continue to strive to provide children and families with a safe, fun and healthy environment.
