Hi! My name is Em, and I’m a calm, compassionate, and creative caregiver offering child care and household support. I love working with kids and have 9+ years experience caring for children ages 2–7, including caring for multiple children at once. I also have experience supporting neurodivergent and special-needs children and young adults. I am a graduate from the University of Minnesota, where I studied Communications, Digital Media Studies, and Filmmaking! I am also pursuing an additional degree in Early Childhood Education (Birth - Grade 3) in the summer of 2026.
I’m soft-spoken, patient, and especially good with children who like being spoken to thoughtfully and with respect. I’m very artsy: drawing, coloring, and crafts are some of my favorite ways to bond, connect, and create a joyful environment.
In addition to childcare, I can cook, clean, and help with household organization and errands. I’m gluten-free myself, so I know all the tastiest gluten-free snacks and meals, but I’m comfortable cooking for any diet or preference. I also have lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs, and have a kitty of my own named Mickey.
If you’re looking for a steady, gentle, and compassionate presence in your home, I’m your gal!
I currently work at an early children’s development center and have a PCA, CPR & AED (BLS), First Aid - Pediatric, Child, & Adult certification.
