A little bit about me

Hi families!
My name is Elena, I’m 23 years old, and I’m originally from Argentina. I’ve been living in the United States for about 10 months as an au pair, and I’m currently based in Virginia Beach, VA.

Back in Argentina, I was studying to become an English teacher. I discovered how much I love helping kids learn, explore, and grow through fun and creative activities.

I’m a friendly, responsible, and caring person who truly enjoys spending time with kids and creating fun, meaningful experiences for them.

I love exploring new places, going to the beach, cooking, and spending time outdoors.

More About Me

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

I started working in an English academy in 2022, where I taught children between 3 and 12 years old through games, songs, and fun, interactive activities. That experience helped me become more patient, creative, and confident when spending time with kids and supporting their learning in a natural way. Along with that, I have experience babysitting my younger relatives and helping families with daily routines, such as playing, having meals, doing homework, and getting ready for bed. I’ve cared for children of different ages, from babies to school-aged kids, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Last year, I started my au pair experience, where I’ve been caring for children between 3 and 9 years old. This experience has helped me grow a lot, teaching me how to adapt to different routines, build strong connections with families, and be an active, positive part of the kids’ everyday lives.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I really enjoy arts and crafts, going for walks, spending time at the park, and having picnics outdoors. I love planning activities that help children learn in simple and natural ways.

When I was in Argentina, I used to plan active games to teach colors, vocabulary, or short phrases in English, always in a fun, engaging way. I believe children learn best when they’re having fun, so I like turning every activity into a small adventure full of creativity and discovery.
