Elisa, 21 year old international half German half British psychology student
Hi, my name is Elisa, I'm a 21 year old international half Germans half British psychology student. I have worked for several families as a baby/child sitter on and off for about 7 years now, caring for single children as well as siblings of various ages (5-17) that are both neurotypical and neurodivergent. I have mainly worked with grade school kids looking after them and helping with school work, since I have also been tutoring with varying intensity for about 6 years.

I have worked for several families as a baby/child sitter on and off for about 7 years now, caring for single children as well as siblings of various ages (5-17) that are both neurotypical and neurodivergent. I have mainly worked with grade school kids looking after them and helping with school work, since I have also been tutoring with varying intensity for about 6 years.
I myself am a student, so generally quite flexible regarding timing. I'm happy to help out wherever I can- whether with home work, school preparations, reading, or hobbies such as baking, crafts, and games. Whether you and your partner just want a date night or would like some help, I'm happy to :). Generally, I'm a sensitive, creative yet assertive person, and seldomly have problems bonding with the kids.
I speak English fluently as my mother is British, while I grew up in Germany and went to school there, making German my second fluent language.
I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you and your loved ones!!

What parents love about me
I'm a highly organised, warm, energetic, and overall helpful person that will go out of my way to care for you and your kids. I'm not afraid to enforce rules like bed or bath times while ensuring a psychologically secure environment :)
What kids love about me
I love to bake, sing, read, make crafts and play sports- overall I'm happy to entertain all day and also happy to give them their space.
What I love about this work
I believe that working with kids in their own environment is the most rewarding thing- seeing them learn and grow with age, seeing them care for their siblings and parents and getting to know different personalities is what has kept me intrigued over years. It's such a different environment from my daily studying that it's almost a type of break that I can look forward to!
