A little bit about me

I am a mother to three wonderful children, ages 17, 11 and 8. I have over 17 years of nanny experience and have worked with children ranging from 6 weeks to 15 years old, including children with significant needs. I also have experience with Montessori teachings and their practical application in everyday care.

I am CPR and First Aid certified and have completed Love and Logic courses. I strongly believe that a structured, nurturing environment is essential for children. I am deeply focused on supporting their physical, social, emotional, and intellectual development while also encouraging independence.

I enjoy planning hands-on activities, exploring the outdoors, going on field trips, and sharing story time together. I truly enjoy being a nanny because I am a highly intuitive person who genuinely loves working with children and finds joy in helping them learn, grow, and thrive.

Elizabeth W. - Seeking Work in Colorado Springs

Babysitter Available in Colorado Springs, CO: Elizabeth W.

Hi, I’m Elizabeth but I do go by Lizzie! One of my favorite jobs over the years has been anything that consists working with kids because they’re one of the easiest people to work with. I love seeing a little kid light up at the smallest things. as I’m going into my first year of college, I would love to make a little bit more money just to save. I love to read in my free time. My favorite movie genre is dystopian but I could also watch a romcom! I’d like to think my favorite color is blue but I love every color which I think little kids relate to as well because they’ll say that they love one color but in reality, they love all the colors until they really find out who they are! I grew up living with my grandma who did babysitting full-time so I grew up watching her handle kids with care so I’ve seen it firsthand how kids should be treated! I am so excited to start working with expanding families and family, who are just trying to get the hang of things! I’m always happy to help!
