Hi families! Update March 2026* I am working full time during the weekdays and am available for occasional & date night sitting only in the evening or weekends* My name is Emma, I've been babysitting and nannying for a little over 8 years now. I went to college for social work, and I have worked with kids in a variety of environments from school as a paraprofessional, to tutoring, nannying, as well as being a case manager. I am looking for occasional positions, one time, or part time. I have a clean driving record, my own vehicle, & I’m CPR/first aid certified. I am comfortable with pets as I grew up with cats and dogs. I love doing different activities with kids from games, puzzles & crafts, playing outside, reading, and everything in between! I have experience working with children from infant to teenage years. I am also happy to prepare meals and help with light housekeeping as well. I look forward to talking with you. Best, Emma

On-time, communicative and professional. Daughter had a great day! Will have Emma back.
