Emma $10 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Emma, I’m a college student at the University of Mount Union, and I major in Graphic Design. My background with kids is that I am one, an older sister to four wonderful kids who have taught me a lot. Because of them I was able to grow so much as a person. And two I have done volunteer that has involved taking care of children at my grandparents church. I have taken care of not just babies from newborns to teens, but I have also cared for my own and others pets before. I can cook, clean, and stay in task for whatever kind of job I’m doing, whether that is taking care of your sweet babies or playing with your lovable pets.
