Emma Matinecock
$28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Emma and I am a passionate, experienced teacher and educator with a goal to make a difference for the families I work with. I have over 18 years of childcare experience and have worked in Spain, France and Switzerland in addition to the US as a nanny and babysitter as well as private tutor for children ages 5 months-18. I was born in the United States (Connecticut) and have worked in the public and private school system in the northeastern United States, California, Hawaii and France and Switzerland. I taught preschool and elementary school for over 11 years, after graduating from Smith College. In addition, I recently began teaching high school French, ELL and Spanish. I am currently a high school French teacher at an international school in Thornwood New York. My overall childcare experience began in 2007, when I started working as a nanny in CT; from there, I continued throughout my teaching career to do childcare work. I hold a B.A. in French and Education from Smith College (Northampton, MA, USA, May 2007) and a Masters degree in Educational Sciences from University of Geneva ( Geneva, Switzerland, June, 2023). The summer of 2023, I worked as a live-in Aupair for a family in Sant Cugat, Catalonia, Spain, and learned basic Spanish during this time. I believe in diversity, inclusion and that all children thrive in a stimulating environment that meets their individual needs in a creative way. I really love the work I do with young children. (I am passionate about working with all ages, but particularly enjoy working with babies). I'm reliable, energetic and professional. Whether as a short-term solution or long-term support, I look forward to creating a supportive, loving and authentic relationship with families. I am currently looking for a part-time babysitting/nannying job this summer (2025)

I truly enjoy working with children and creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where they can feel comfortable and supported. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on children’s well-being and safety. Families often describe me as a “Mary Poppins type” nanny nurturing, dependable, and always prepared with creativity, structure, and a calm presence (minus the disappearing act) Child Care Services I offer reliable child care services for families who need someone dependable and compassionate.

We couldn’t be more pleased with the care Ms. Pamela provided for our kids! From the very first day, she was engaging, responsible and brought such a positive energy to our home. Our kids absolutely loved spending time with her! Whether it was playing games, doing crafts, or just chatting about their day, they were always excited to have Ms Pamela around! We also appreciated the clear communication and how she kept us updated with little details about what the kids were up to. Made us feel comfortable knowing our children were in such great hands we highly recommend Ms. Pamela to anyone in need of trustworthy and caring sitter we’ll definitely be asking for her again!
