Program

Welcome to Ellie’s Daycare! As a licensed caregiver, I find it deeply rewarding to provide daycare services for children of all ages in my community. They’ll experience an environment where they’re encouraged to learn how to play with others by stepping away from their comfort zone. It’ll be a relatively smooth transition because kinship and compassion are embedded in our Daycare’s DNA. Homemade food and healthy snacks will be available (with parent's permission) in order to keep their minds and bodies fueled throughout the day. I look forward to showing you first-hand what we’re all about!

Ellie - Director

I have provided childcare services professionally for 5 years and babysat periodically for almost 7 years. However, my experience, love, and care for children trace back further when my daughter was born 17 years ago. She taught me so much about myself and what it means to be a great parent. In addition to providing care, I hope to forge genuine relationships with families and work together to amplify their kiddos’ knowledge and abilities.

Reviews

Eli's Daycare is fantastic. She's amazing with our son; very warm, caring, nurturing, and loves our son like her own. Eli is always responsive and keeps us in the loop and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home childcare service.

Ms Eli is the best!! We were typical first time parents looking for a babysitter for the first time. Eil came highly recommended by another babysitter that was not taking any new children. After speaking with the parents of the other children under Eli's care, we went ahead and s...Read moreent our daughter to her. It was the best decision we could have made!!! Eli has such a motherly nature with her kids. She's also very calming so her daycare was never loud or aggressive when we were there. She even made the kids homemade, healthy food for the kids. We didn't hesitate to send our second daughter to her when the time came. Unfortunately, our situation changed and we had to move our children to a daycare in a different city. The new daycare doesn't hold a candle to Eli. She's ruined us forever. I highly recommend her to anyone

Loving. Nurturing. Patient. This is just the beginning on how I would describe Ms. Eli. It wasn't easy finding someone else to take care of your baby being a first-time parent. I knew this person needed to meet all my expectations. I found Ms. Eli through a recommendation from an...Read moreother babysitter and it was the best thing that could have happened. All my fears went away when I first met her. She had this calming demeanor about her and I instantly knew she was the one! She loves her kids like they are her own. She is so patient with them and never raises her voice. Watching multiple kids is stressful enough, but she finds the time to make home cooked meals for them as well...which I loved! Not only did my daughter love it, she introduced her to a variety of foods that I normally wouldn't cook for her. Her place isn't huge, but I thought it was perfect. Her place is set up to do indoor activities as well as her outside patio (covered) where they can paint and do water activities. She also takes them to the park that is nearby and takes the time to put sunblock and a hat on my daughter. It was very difficult when I had to leave Ms. Eli due to changing jobs in a different city. Ms. Eli definitely set the bar WAY high to all the other babysitters I had to interview. I would HIGHLY recommend Ms. Eli is all aspects. If for some reason, my job is back in Irvine, I would go back to Ms. Eli in a heartbeat! Trust me, you will love her as much as we did!
