With over 12 years of experience as a nanny, babysitter, and childcare professional, I am passionate about working with children and supporting their growth. I have also worked as a head preschool teacher and at an elementary school, giving me a well-rounded approach to childcare. I have a BS in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education. I am very hands on and love to keep children engaged with creative activities, crafts, books, and games. I always bring along extra ideas and activities to suit each child’s age and interests. I am patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. When I’m not caregiving I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling all over the world, playing tennis, and curling up to read a good book.

My wife and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Emily as part of our family for over a year. She cared for our two children (that are now ages 3 & 5) with so much warmth, sense of fun, genuine enthusiasm, and professionalism. She was always punctual, extremely reliable, and quick to respond, which gave us peace of mind. What truly set her apart was how hands-on she was with our kids. She regularly came prepared with thoughtful activities like crafts, games, toys, and books. She put so much effort into to making each day fun and enriching. She wasn’t a person to just supervised, she got down on the floor and played with them, stayed active, and built a real connection with our children. Our kids absolutely adored her and we clearly see how much she cared for them. Any family would be lucky to have her, we would recommend her without hesitation.

My school schedule is Mon and Weds @12:50-3:20, everyday after that I am free!!(if needed in the morning i can do that before class). I can be as flexible as possible just need time for my schoolwork too:)))! I've been babysitting every Monday for a meeting for about a year and a half maybe, other than that I dont have much professional child care experience but i also have little experience volunteering at summer camps and babysitting here and there for family/friends .My skills include, preparing meals, changing diapers, folding laundry, tidying up, and I have my own car. I love working with kids, i enjoy seeing them happy and doing things they love. Feel free to contact me!!!!

I have been a nanny for a family for about 3 to 4 years now. But they are no longer needing my services since the kiddo is growing up. I also have occasionally babysat for other families too. And I grew up watching my siblings and my family’s kids also. I love spending time with kids, doing crafts, puzzles, etc. I am very patient and enjoy building connections with kids. I would love to help out and make it easier for families.

I am a part-time teacher who lives in the Mid-West during the school year and WILL reside in southern California for the full summer (approximately mid June to early August - there is some flexibility there).. My experience includes many years of babysitting and nanny experience. in addition to 18 years of full-time middle school teaching. I do have a daily position M-F already lined up this summer in LA, but will be available some evenings and weekends here and there to provide care. Please see my availability. I'm flexible, fun, and fair with kids. I'm also a mom of three (ages 24, 22, and 15) and an aunt to many for whom I've provided care. I have my own late-model vehicle, am CPR/First Aid certified, and am a mature, responsible professional with much experience with children of all ages - newborn through adolescence. In addition to teaching, I've worked as a leadership staff member at a summer camp in Maine for children ages 6-15 during two different summers. I've also been certified as a foster parent in California, have volunteered as a child placement coordinator with Royal Family Kids' Camps and can provide very strong character and professional references.
