Hi! My name is Elizabeth. I have a Masters in Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and family Therapy. I have also completed numerous child development classes through the years. I am experienced, trustworthy, responsible, prompt and a very good communicator. You need me because I am fully ready to engage and come have fun with your child/children. I am always watching or playing with kids. Whether it be my nieces or my friends kids or church kids or in a job setting. It's all so much fun. I started working with Children at age 15 and I absolutely love every aspect of it. I am comfortable watching many children at one time and children of all ages, especially 2 months-Junior High age. I possess several certifications including: child CPR (including infants), and First Aid.      I have varying degrees of experience from being a nanny, date night sitter, before or after school care, summer care, camp counselor, at risk youth counselor, mothers helper, Sunday School teacher, after school program teacher, Special Education Aide, etc. I currently volunteer with children at church. Also volunteer with Special Needs young adults and high school students. I've had the privilege of being a nanny for several different families through the years.       Nanny/date night/babysitting duties range from: changing diapers, using cloth diapers, meal preparation, preparing snacks, bath time, bed time routine, morning routine, taking kids to the park or other outings, swimming, doing crafts, baking, reading to them, using our imagination together, doing puzzles together & many other games, tutor/homework assistance, straightening up their toys, light housework chores, coloring, painting, etc. I love to be a role model for children, play with them on their level of ability, and ensure that they are well taken care. My favorite book growing up was Bread and jam for Frances. Some of my favorite children's games are Mancala, checkers, Uno, Matching, Go Fish, Barrel of Monkeys, etc.        When I am not working, then you can catch me outside with family or friends. I love exercising, relaxing, reading, cooking, hiking, watching movies, or playing games.  Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have!  *****MY POLICIES*****  If the job is canceled less than 24 hours before the start time, then I ask that I be paid for the hours of the scheduled job.       *I also require a minimum 3 hour booking; however, I will consider shorter jobs on a case-by-case basis. I am setting aside my time to dedicate to you.

Elizabeth was great with my 8 month old

"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!"
