About Elaina

Nanny Hi my name is Elaina ! I am new to the Watervliet area and a current graduate student at Russell Sage College pursuing an education degree. I have worked with kids since I was 14 and would love to find a child/ children to pour my heart into when I'm not studying. Last school year, I worked in a school district as a substitute teacher in elementary and secondary classrooms. I also worked for a summer camp for 5 summers where I was CPR/ First Aid Certified multiple times. I planned activities and connected with so many unique children I will cherish forever. I am an art education major so I believe strongly in connecting the body and mind. Art/ music/ literacy are very important to the work I incorporate in children's learning process and activities. I am also from the Adirondacks so I love being outside as much as possible.
