Experience: 8 yrs
Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, a calling I have pursued for eight years. My background includes Early Child Development and Developmental Psychology coursework, which informs my patient and calm approach to care. I am comfortable managing the needs of two children across all age groups, from infants to pre-teens. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. Whether we are playing outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or exploring creative crafts, I love engaging children in imaginative play. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I follow your lead regarding household rules and prioritize your preferred communication method for daily updates. I am also very comfortable around pets. Helping your little ones reach their milestones and seeing them thrive is what brings me the most joy in my work.
Emily has been our primary babysitter for over six years, caring for both of our children, and she is truly wonderful. She is attentive, caring, thoughtful, incredibly reliable, and someone we trust completely. She is always prompt and dependable, and our kids absolutely adore her. Having Emily babysit is a special treat for them—they’re always so excited when she’s coming! We feel incredibly lucky to have her and couldn’t recommend her more highly.
