Hello! My name is Emily, and I can guarantee that your child and I will both be having a ball within 10 minutes of our meeting. I was a child who loved experiencing summer camp, hanging with my babysitter, and wishing I had an older sister to look up to; I can be that for your child. If you are looking for a caretaker who can go from playing on the floor with blocks to ensuring sidewalk safety to teaching your child how to make change while buying ice cream, I am the person for you! I have spent my undergraduate, graduate, and professional career committed to understanding children's social, emotional, and academic well-being. I have been a special education teacher for two years and a camp counselor for five years! I have worked with children in therapeutic settings who receive a variety of psychological services. I have babysat on Read more and off for years between these positions in education. I have experience teaching children how to swim and tutoring all subjects from kindergarten through high school. I am a certified Special Education and Social Studies teacher (grades 7th-12th) in Vermont. I have a valid driver's license. I recently moved back to New York to complete my master's degree in Psychological Counseling at Columbia University, and I am excited to collaborate to meet your family's needs!
