Hi! I am Emma Viggiani. I currently live in Fairport, NY, and I am a middle school ENL teacher in Brighton. I graduated from Niagara University in 2023 with my degree TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) with a minor in dance. I am currently working on my masters degree in Literacy from SUNY Brockport. I have worked with children since I was little and absolutely love the education field.

Going outside and enjoying nature is also important and something I would do when it is nice out!

I love being a caregiver because there is nothing more rewarding than creating a safe, positive environment where children can truly thrive. Every child has a unique personality and way of learning, and I love discovering what makes them click—whether that's through creative play, diving into a good book, or helping them master a new skill. For me, babysitting isn't just about supervision; it's about providing parents with total peace of mind and being a reliable, fun, and supportive presence in a child's life. ​What experience do you have? ​I have eight years of professional experience working with children across a wide range of ages and developmental stages.

Hello! I am 26 years old and I have experience with children. I went to college for four years and I have worked in a daycare setting. I have recently just left a daycare job so my schedule is pretty open and my training is up to date.

I am a retired social worker who previously worked for NYS Office of Children and Families, and for the past six years I have worked as a full-time nanny with the same family. I began caring for their oldest when he was five months old, and the family has since grown to include a 3-year-old, boy, and an 8-month-old, girl. Caring for children has been a part of my life since I was in seventh grade, when I began as a mother's helper. During high school, I spent four as a live-in nanny and throughout my career I have worked with children and young adults of varying ages, abilities, and needs, including both neurotypical children and children with special needs and disabilities. I truly enjoy being an active and involved nanny planning outings and activities, playing, and encouraging learning and independence and helping children grow in a safe, loving and supportive environment. I am looking for a part-time or full-time position with a family who will value my extensive childcare experience, also knowing that parents are the experts on their children, and view their nanny as a trusted partner. I believe in open communication, consistency, kindness and a good sense of humor are all important parts of a successful nanny-family relationship. I am also happy to help with light household responsibilities related to the family, including dishes, children's laundry, meal prep, and keeping the children's area organized. Most importantly, I am looking for a family where I can build a meaningful, long-term relationship and become a dependable and caring part of the family.
