Hello, I am a fun, loving and energetic person who enjoys working with children. I am a Kindergarten teacher who loves what she does! I have a ton of experience working with all different ages. I also have worked for a few different day care centers and have 9+ years experience working with children with ages ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 years old. I love using my creative outlook to make learning fun and enjoyable for kids. I also love playing games and interacting on a personal level with all children. I have a 3 year old I would like to bring with me on jobs as well.

“Super appreciated the care Emily provided our 18 month old. Our daughter has had very, very few babysitters and Emily was kind and warm, played with her and easily rolled with it when our gal got upset. Thank you, Emily, for your patience and care! ”
