Emonie is delightful. She was really able to connect with my 7 and 10yo. She got them into their online meetings, got them moving/outside when we asked, kept them fed and smiling. She is all we want in a sitter and more! I have recommended her to friends and they have been pleased with her as well. Thank you, Emonie!

I really enjoy working with children of any age, and I have 20+ years of experience from previous nanny and child care positions (aged newborn up to high school) as well as in the non-profit education sector. I think child care/babysitting should be a mix of fun and learning while sticking to the guidelines and goals of the parents. I am flexible, creative and enthusiastic, and I try to encourage the children I am taking care of to be creative themselves and to enjoy each activity. I know each child is an individual, and I strive to promote their sense of self and independence while encouraging kindness and an awareness of community. Additionally, I can assist with errands, pick up/drop off, cooking, and similar tasks.
