About Elliot
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi everyone! My first name is Elliot, but I typically go by the name Mars. I am compassionate, goofy, and flexible! I adapt quickly to novel situations while keeping a calm, lighthearted presence. I am not afraid to be silly, and will make sure I arrive ready to have fun! I have worked with children of all ages & abilities. I babysat as a teenager, and began coaching gymnastics at 16yrs. I led classes for ages 3 to 17, including a class for children with disabilities. After 6yrs of coaching, I decided to work full time as a special needs caregiver while finishing my bachelor's degree in psychology. After graduation, I moved across the country and found a job working as a Behavior Technician. I am currently working towards a masters in Applied Behavior Analysis with the intention to continue growing the skills of special needs individuals.

Mars (Elliot) has been a blessing for our family! The level of dedication, patience, pediatric behavioral knowledge, flexibility to our schedule needs, adaptability, zest for kiddo fun/crafts/energy, and overall love and kindness shown to our 3.5 year old twins has been exemplary!! Mars has guided us on tools to help potty train my son while building him up emotionally versus tearing him down, and works on motivation techniques/tools to help my daughter be more respectful and kind in her interactions. Navigating toddler emotions and calming meltdowns is like a magic Mars weilds - and my husband and I look to learn from. Overall we consider Mars family and I know my kids are cared for with integrity, thoughtfulness, energy, protection, and love. Hiring Mars as our full-time Nanny has been one of my greatest parental decisions to date <3
