Elise H.

Im an experienced nanny, tutor, and homeschool instructor with over a decade of childcare experience. Ive cared for children from infancy through adolescenceincluding live-in roles with a 3-month-old, a 2-year-old, and a 10-year-old simultaneously. Ive also supported advanced learners, helping a 9-year-old gain acceptance into Elon Musks private school program through customized lesson planning that blended mindfulness, emotional regulation, art expression, and second-grade academics.

Currently, Im a substitute teacher at Columbus Preparatory Academy and have also taught at Sun Lake Academy of Math & Science. Im pursuing a PhD in psychology with a research focus on creative expression as a tool for emotional and cognitive developmentwhich deeply informs the way I support and engage with children.

In addition to my education background, I work part-time as a certified fitness instructor at the YMCA and hold a current CPR/AED certification. I also served in the U.S. military, so you can count on me to be on time, dependable, and calm under pressure.

Ive worked with up to 10 families and bring a grounded, creative, and heart-centered presence to every home. I help children thrive through art, emotional regulation, play, and personalized learning. When babysitting, I love to plan creative activities (with parent approval and a small supply fee) to make each visit fun, inspiring, and meaningful.
