Hello!

My name is Elena, and I live in the heart of Amsterdam. With over 20 years of experience as a nanny, teacher and child psychologist, I help children grow up confident, happy and curious about the world. I offer more than just care — I create a nurturing, creative and developmental space for your child to thrive.

What I offer:

– Attentive, loving care with a respectful and individual approach

– Developmental sessions focused on speech, memory, attention and cognitive growth(neuropsychological methods)

– Emotional intelligence development through play, storytelling and reflective dialogue

– English language learning through games, songs and everyday conversation

– Music sessions: basic piano skills, singing and even creating original songs

– Kids’ yoga — gentle movement, breathing and mindfulness games for a calm mind and body

– A peaceful, supportive atmosphere where your child feels safe, seen and inspired

I’ve worked in international schools, as a private English tutor and as a nanny for UK and dutch families. I bring together psychology, language, creativity and care to help children blossom.

Languages: English, Russian and a bit of Dutch

Looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful child!

This page is meant for parents who need a nanny in Amsterdam or nearby pretty urgently and need a reliable person to help. I am a child psychologist with MA and a teacher who has been working with young kids and school age children for over 20 years.

In brief my CV looks like this:
2000-2002 Camp couselor in the US
2002-2007 Teacher of English in primary and secondary schools
2007-2009 Private nanny in a family in the UK
2010-2015 Kindergarten teacher and a psychologist
2015-2023 Private tutor of English and nanny for children

I live in Amsterdam and I am available to come at a pretty short notice and take good care of your kids. I can cook, shop, teach, play and even sing and teach playing the piano. I also teach children painting, yoga, drama and arts and crafts like sewing and making something with your own hands.

As I am qualified to work as a child psychologist I can also carry out sessions for your kids and help them feel better (in English or Russian).
I've been learning Dutch and I can say small things and understand what I am told but it's a beginner level and I hope I will be much better soon.

Have a lovely day and welcome to join this group!
Please contact me via Whatsapp or email whenever you need me.

As Nannies it is important that we develop and build trusting and secure relationships with our nanny families, especially our nanny kids. It is essential as caregivers to have a close relationship with the children. They need to feel safe, they need to know that they can confide in you and trust you. Children who feel safe will be more likely to participate in activities, be gentler on themselves and gain the confidence to try again when something doesn’t quite go their way. It's important that children enjoy their time with their nanny and get excited when she/he turns up to carry out her/his role as a trusted childcare provider again.
