Hi! I'm Emily, and I bring extensive experience caring for children from newborns through age 18. Working with such a wide range of ages has given me a deep understanding of developmental stages & emotional needs. I am naturally patient, calm, and attentive - qualities that have been strengthened through years of working with children of all personalities, abilities, and energy levels. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood, and supported, and I prioritize building trusting relationships with both kids and parents. Whether it's soothing a newborn, supporting a toddler through transitions, encouraging independence in school-age children, or mentoring teens, I bring a structured but nurturing presence into the home. I value routines, clear communication, and positive guidance. I'm comfortable supporting homework, creating enriching play-based activities, helping with emotional regulation, preparing meals, and maintaining an organized environment.
She is a very kind person, she is considerate, responsible, and has a great passion for working with children. I’ve seen how dedicated she is to caring for and protecting them. She’s very sweet and clear when she talks to the children, yet firm when she tells them what they need to do. Something that I really appreciate. I always had complete confidence that she will take good care of my children. She followed , taught them, and had fun with them. She is incredible at what she does.
