Meet Emmie

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi, I'm Emmie! By trade I'm a UX researcher, but I'm currently taking a break from the corporate world and looking to spend more time doing something I love: helping families and caring for kids. I’ve worked in both research labs and fast-paced tech teams, but caregiving has always been a grounding and meaningful part of my life. I’ve been caring for children ages 2+ for several years, including those with mental and physical disabilities. My background in psychology and child development (plus a dash of design!) helps me connect with kids of all ages in fun, thoughtful ways. Whether it’s building crafts, tackling homework, or settling in for story time, I love finding ways to engage with each child’s unique personality. I’m CPR certified, friendly, and reliable. My current schedule is flexible for afternoons, evenings, and weekends. If you’re looking for someone who brings energy, empathy, and experience to Read more the table, I’d be thrilled to meet your family!

Highly recommend! Emmie was kind, communicative, honest, and reliable. Our daughter connected immediately with her and loved their playground and arts and crafts time together!

Emmie did a great job with our toddler! She was prompt, came prepared with toys, and was patient and flexible with our changing schedule. Our little boy really enjoyed his evening with her.
