I’m Elisa! I grew up as the oldest of five kids to a single mom, grabbing babysitting jobs where I could to help my family and save up for myself. I have experience as a mother’s helper for twin infants, a nanny for 4 under 10, and other babysitting as well. It is my goal to make kids feel safe and have fun while Mom and Dad are gone, and keep the stress gone for parents.

I lead the special needs ministry for a large church. We rely on weekly help from sitters we book on SitterTree. The app makes it easy to connect with sitters in our area who have experience working with children with disabilities. We now have several Favorites who we book consistently. SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our ministry.
