About Emily

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a caregiver with five years of experience, I've discovered my passion for making a positive impact on children's lives. My friendly nature and creativity allow me to connect with children and provide a nurturing environment where they can thrive. I believe in open communication with parents and follow their preferred method to ensure we're on the same page about their child's day and any concerns that arise. Regarding household rules, I adapt to the family's guidelines. My approach to play is diverse, from engaging in outdoor sports and physical games to enjoying board games and puzzles, and incorporating educational elements to promote learning. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children and have experience with various age groups, including 4-5, 6-11, and 12+. My college education, combined with CPR training, helps me provide a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care.

Emily is amazing and she still stays in touch with both of my kids and they love her. She started with us in the fall of 2018 when our kids were 7 and 11 and we knew she was the perfect fit right from the start. She was so kind and loving while also being firm when needed. She knew how to strike the perfect balance to both keep the kids on task and have fun. She handled driving duties for school and the extensive sports and extracurriculars for the kids and managed to tidy and cook when needed. We got to see her through her last years of college and her launch from there. She kept our house manageable with 2 highly active kids and 2 crazy busy and a little bit crazy in general, parents. She’s the best.
