Hi my name is Emily Moore (no longer Poblano, as I am married now), I’m 25 years old and I’ve been babysitting/ petsitting for 8 years now. I’m the oldest of 4 kids so I’ve got lots of experience with all ages. I was a 1st grade teacher to 5 kids during my junior year of high school and loved planning activities for the kids. I love to sing, dance, swim, go to the park, and explore new things. I am CERT certified, bilingual(English/Spanish), and I’ve always had so much patience with kids of any age. I’m also very good with pets of all kinds, I have 1 dog myself (lab mix). I also do have a car, I’m an amazing cook, and I can always help out with any housework needed. Im also very flexible with my time. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me. I am willing to drive to further locations, but I do charge $10/20 miles as a gas fee (less than 20 miles is no extra charge) IF YOUR CHILD IS SICK WITH A COLD/FLU/COVID/COUGH AND YOU DO NOT INFORM ME BEFORE HAND, I WILL HAVE TO CHARGE $100 FOR THE INCONVENIENCE/ NON PREVENTATIVE ACTION TAKEN. Thank you have a blessed day:)

I think being a kid at heart myself, makes it easy for me to get along with kids and build relationships with them. I really enjoy being in the mind of little ones, they are all so unique and fun personality's! I've enjoyed my time hanging out with kids in my own family, and ones who became like family. Kids and parents alike. I don't mind getting on the floor and playing along, or going outside and finding something fun to do. Or even just caring for the extra little ones and making sure they are fed and happy. I think i'm pretty good at entertaining and caring for many ages!

I have 10+ years of experience working with children and recently have been building experience caring for infants. I have experience providing respite care for children with special needs as well as the elderly. I moved to Houston two years ago with my dog and have enjoyed getting to know the city through food, hiking and museums.
