Meet Emily

  • Early Childhood Special Education Certification
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I was a teacher at a private school called Ruskin Christian, back in Tampa Bay. I moved here 3 years ago to be closer to family. I have early childhood development certifications, and have been DCF background checked (FL), along with having current CPR and First Aid training. I have an art background, can swim, have a current and valid drivers license with a safe driving record and am not at all pet shy. I have a few adventures up and will be adding more. You are welcome to contact my former employer, at Ruskin Christian, Lisa Heerdt; she is the preschool and aftercare director, or Tim Vanderveer, the dean of the entire school. Here is the school's website www.ruskinchristianschool.net. My most recent job in Tennessee was as a nanny for two homeschooled elementary age children. I am still in contact with the family and see the children regularly, so Read more I can give you their number for a more recent reference. I generally interact and play with the kids, whether it's an adventure outside of your home or one at home. I like taking kids outside to play, or go on walks. If I get to know your family well, and you are comfortable with it, I love taking kids to nearby parks, and trails to explore. My art background also means your kids will probably do crafts with me at some point too! I'm not just a young college kid looking for quick cash. I'm a professional and responsible adult. I have years of experience juggling hectic schedules, food, fun, hydration and the most important thing, the overall safety of your kids. This makes my fees a little higher than an average babysitter, but I am more than happy to negotiate for less, if your needs are less. I also work part time and remotely, for a pediatric office here in Ooltewah. This should never interfere with my childcare work, but should add to why you want to hire me. Thank you so much for your interest and hope to hear from you soon!
