Hi families! I’m Edina, but I go by Edie! I’m in the process of becoming a special education teacher, and working with children is truly my passion. I’m very active, fun, and love taking kids to the playground, doing pretend play, reading, and creating other engaging activities. I also love creating spaces where kids feel seen, heard, safe, and encouraged to be themselves.
I’m currently studying Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education at Salisbury University. I’m trained in advanced childcare and certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid.
I’ve worked with multiple wonderful families and would love to connect with a few more this season. If you’re looking for a warm, reliable, and fun sitter, feel free to reach out or send me a booking request!
I have always been the caretaker of the family. I have experience being the matriarch in my immediate family, I have taken care of my little cousins countless times, and I have immense experience cooking and cleaning. Most of my professional experience has been aquatics.(4 years) which included lifeguarding, water safety instructor, and swim coach positions. I am certainly not shy to first aid care, planning and strategy, compassion, cleaning biological messes, attention to detail, and safety. I am very nurturing and love to teach and support. I am studying environmental science and I have the passion for creativity like arts and crafts. I believe learning is important and can be fun! I can’t wait to meet you and be an addition to your family!

Hi, I'm Elektra! I'm a Biotechnology and Mathematics undergraduate with a passion for working with children and helping them thrive. With over five years of childcare experience caring for younger family members and two years of professional babysitting experience, I've learned that every child deserves a safe, supportive, and fun environment where they can be themselves.
I love staying engaged with the children I care for, whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, doing creative activities, or simply being a patient and encouraging presence throughout their day. As an author and avid reader, I enjoy fostering curiosity, imagination, and a love of learning.
Parents can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring. My goal is not just to provide childcare, but to be someone children feel comfortable with and someone parents can trust with confidence.

I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Norfolk for work.
