Hi there! I'm an extroverted, fun, and creative person who will LOVE doing crafts with your kids! I've been in childcare for over a decade, (only taking a break to complete my Bachelor of Arts at UC Berkeley). I was a full-time nanny for sweet twin boys for 2. 5 yrs., facilitating potty-training, swim lessons, reading/writing lessons, TK pick-up, etc. I worked as a teacher for various children's after-school programs- including a privately run children's art program in various elementary schools, (receiving fingerprint tests and background checks to care for classrooms of 20+ K-5 children). I grew close to all of the kids, and even nannied many! I've been well-versed in childcare from an early age, as I often cared for my three brothers in a single-parent family, and regularly worked with families of 3+ children since high-school. Between my years of caring for and teaching children, I feel extremely comfortable providing a safe, attentive environment full of enrichment and fun. :-)
Emma was so great with our twin boys. She watched them for over 2 years from the ages of 2.5yrs to 4.5 yrs old. The boys thought of her as a friend vs. nanny/babysitter. She plays with the kids, listens to their needs, does arts/crafts time, reads, picks them up from school, going to park- honestly anything the kids ask she is willing to do! She is highly dependable and at times became my personal assistant- taking kids to get their haircut or running a quick grocery store pickup. Emma would still be working for us if we hadn't moved. We miss her every day but she has now become a pen pal to the boys (again all initiated on her side because she is that caring and loving). If you hire Emma, you will not regret it. She is truly amazing inside and out.
