Hi there! EDIT: currently working full time, not available for full time nanny gigs at the moment. Happy to pass along references, though! My name is Eliza, and I'm a babysitter and nanny based out of Los Angeles. I have 7 years of child care experience as a babysitter, tutor, and nanny (live in, part-time, and full-time) in LA, Oregon, Boston, Canada, and England. My childcare philosophy centers around mutual respect, learning through play, and fostering a child's innate sense of empathy and creativity. I speak to the children I care for as people, tailoring the conversation to their level of understanding, but always taking into account their humanity and desire to understand the world and the why's around them. I approach my work with a positive attitude, responsibility, and a fun-loving energy. Working with children and their families has taught me so much about respect, kindness, and patience, and Read more I deeply value and appreciate the relationships I form with families. To be welcomed into a home is an honor, and I do not take it lightly. Outside of childcare, I am a writer, theatre maker, budding activist, and outdoor enthusiast. I graduated from Lewis and Clark college in 2019 with a degree in English, and have since worked as an RA/TA at a writers workshop, as a writers PA in a TV writers room, and at production companies in the city. I am a young playwright in residence at the Echo theatre, and a founding member of an interdisciplinary art collective. When I'm not working or creating, I spend as much time as possible in the natural world- hiking, swimming, backpacking, and exploring! In these uncertain times, I have found myself missing the connection and value that comes from caring for children. I am eager to get back into wok helping families in my communities! I am committed to practicing social distancing and following covid-19 safety measures, and am looking to work with a family on the same page! If I seem like a good fit for you and your family, please reach out! I look forward to being in touch.

Eliza is such a sweetheart. She is reliable and she is friendly and my daughter loves her. She enables my girl to explore on her own while closely watching her without hovering or helicoptering like many others we have interviewed ... I love that they explore outside a little bit and she is very creative :)
