Hi! My name is Emily! I am a hard-worker who enjoys caring for others. I enjoy helping others and often go the extra mile to ensure that all their needs are being met. I find it rewarding to care for both kids and young adults alike; which in turn allows parents the ability to focus on their work or make time for themselves without added worry. I consider myself honest and kind. I treat kids with respect and expect the same in return. I have experience with just about every age level and have a degree in elementary education. I am very active and try to make every day an adventure. I specialize in young adults with special needs that need assistance out in the community. I am responsible for planning daily activities and try to include a mix of outings, crafting, and life skill building (i.e. cooking, cleaning) as Read more needed. I also have extensive experience with individuals that are speech delayed or non-verbal. My past work history includes working as a Nanny/House Manager for one family (one boy from age 3-11). Some of my responsibilities included: preparing breakfast and lunch, getting ready for school, drop-off and pick-up from school, running errands, scheduling home maintenance and repairs, scheduling playdates, help with school work, and daily adventures during the summer. I also assisted two young women with special needs in the community (15+years; 7 years). We were regulars around St. Louis' local attractions and also the library, movie theater, and mall. We'd often go out to lunch or pack a picnic. Most recently (8+ years), I tutor one 16-year-old teenage boy with special needs (daily) in reading, math, and speech. I try to encourage exercise and love to go for walks, nature hikes, and swim. I do believe that "Adventure is out there!" and enjoy helping individuals find theirs. I have multiple references available contingent upon employment and look forward to working with you and your family.

Trust & safety
