Hello! I’m a Journalism student at MSU & just recently moved back to the KCMO area! I have had tons of hands on experience being an older sister (he is 14 now), but along with that I have done plenty of babysitting for family friends! I am comfortable with a wide age range of children as I have worked in a Childcare facility (mainly working with preschool aged kiddos) & I have also had my fair share while working in a Pediatric dentist office! Hope to hear from you!

My most recent long-term babysitting job was for a family with three kids and a dog. I worked at a summer camp every summer for 4 years, watching girls anywhere from age 5 to 18. I am first aid and CPR certified, and have completed classes and training courses on child development. I taught summer school for elementary special education for 2 months. Although I do not have a background check directly with this site, I work as a substitute teacher and have a background check with the school system.

Hi! My name is Emmy and for as long as I can remember, helping, caring and supporting kids has been my passion!! I have a strong background in children’s education, completing an internship at a preschool + early learning development center, I serve in the children’s ministry of my church, and I have years of experience with babysitting. I stepped away to focus full time on cosmetology school, and now as a new hairstylist, I want to get back into my dearly missed passion of caring of your kiddos! In my free time, I love to cook, read, okay pickleball and spend time with my fiance and friends.
