Hello there, I'm Elis! I am a caregiver specialized in early childhood development. I've been working with kids all ages for over 8 years now. In Brazil, where I’m from, I’ve worked as a teacher and manager of an English school for two years and a half, before moving to US, in this past experience, I've had the chance to learn about pedagogy, early childhood learning and educational activities with focus on learning while having fun. I have taken neuroscience courses mostly as a hobby, but I’m very passionate about mental health, and having in mind the importance of a healthy childhood, I do my best to always lead with kindness and empathy, while dealing with kids. I love singing, act, arts, crafts, and I consider myself a very active and creative person. I'm very patient and able to adapt to different types of schedules, kids tend to adapt really well with me. I'm very committed to my job and consider punctuality something essential, even though I can be flexible and I'm always open to suggestions of how to improve my services. I believe that everything can be easily solved with communication, respect and kindness, as we are a team, working together with the goal of providing the best possible care for your little one. I'm looking forward to hear from you, let me know if you have any specific questions. Thank you! (FYI: Covid vaccinated)
“Elis was so sweet and my daughter had a great time with her. Would definitely have her back. ”
I started my studies at Olivet Nazarene University an hour south of Chicago, where I grew up but I am currently finishing my degree in Child Development Psychology while pursuing art in LA! As the oldest of 6 children I grew up playing a mom role for my younger siblings so I have spent my whole life taking care of children! While taking classes I had the opportunity to babysit and nanny so many beautiful children from newborns to preteens and also help families that had extra mental health needs as well. I am more than able to energetically keep up with children and show endless compassion and patience. I play guitar, sing and paint and would love to teach and help your children with their artistic talents!
“On time, reliable and friendly. Our kids enjoy her art activities and playful nature. ”
Hi Parents! My name is Chyntia, pronounced Cynthia! I was a nanny for 3 years and a preschool teacher but now I currently work for a lemon law firm…drastic change I know! I have taken care of children from the ages of 3 months to 8years old. I am comfortable with bottle feedings and helping out with nighttime routines, while the parents go out and have a nice date night! I can also help pick up around the house while the little ones are sleeping. I love animals! I have a chihuahua terrier and treat him like my baby. He is definitely spoiled! I have experience with feeding, walking and giving them love ! I am comfortable with all size dogs and cats! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have !

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
