I am Elizabeth and I am 25 years old, I am a veteran and was recently honorably discharged from the Navy after 5 years of service. Now, I am a first time mom and stay at home looking to find families who will allow me to bring my 1 year old son while I care for their children! It's been a while, but before I joined the Navy I was a CNA at a nursing home taking care of rehabilitating residents. I absolutley love taking care of people young and old. I am aspiring to become a nurse one day. I am currently working on my medical assistant license and have been CPR certified and First Aid Trained many times and will be getting re-certified soon! I love to include age appropriate activities and crafts and for the babies, I like to offer my sign language skills to start teaching Read more infants how to communicate at a young age. Also, I use parantese language for babies learning to talk which has proven studies from the University of Washington to have an increased vocabulary of 100 words by 18 months. I am very big on safety and will keep you updated on your children throughout the day and would love to send you pictures/videos of them as long as it doesn't disturb you or your work. I look forward to meeting you and your adorable kid(s).

Elizabeth was on time when I needed her. She’s respectful and trustworthy. It’s hard to find these days. She kept up with my 5yr old in all aspects. Thank you again Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was amazing with my kids. She did before and after school care for the last few months of the school year. She did a great job during the two most difficult times of the day for kids--getting them ready for school and getting them to start their homework. She was punctual, trustworthy, and communicated well. I highly recommend her.
