Hey there, families! I'm Emerald, and I've been a babysitter/nanny for over 7 years now. From infants to 13-year-olds, I've got experience with kids of all ages. I've also worked with children who have special needs, like autism and ADHD. On top of that, I've spent 3 years working with senior citizens. Currently, I'm studying nursing at Houston Community College after graduating from Ridge Point High School. Safety is a priority for me, which is why I'm CPR/AED/First aid certified. Animals are completely fine, since I've had animals my whole life. I can help with pick-up/drop-off, extracurricular activities, homework, meal prep, and bath time. Plus, I'm happy to cook, clean, assist with animals, and support learning development. I’m also available for date night sitting, I can start as early as 6am and stay as late as 3am. Overnight sitting and traveling are also on the table! Just so you know, I'm a non-smoker. And don't worry about pricing—I'm flexible and can work within your budget. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to message me. Thanks for taking the time to read my bio

Emerald did a great job with Charlie! Baby girl was napping peacefully when I got home after lots of playtime. We’ll definitely be calling Emerald again.
