Hello! I was a school psychologist for 9 years (early childhood through high school), worked on veggie farms, and worked for many families nannying (ages 2 weeks to 4 years; three trips to Mexico with one family), babysitting (all ages), and doing home help including tidying and organizing. I LOVE to organize! I also work with adults doing home help, transportation, and errands. I love how the families I've worked with tend to eventually feel like extended family of my own. Instead of providing direct caregiving, I'm looking to help families with tasks to hopefully help their busy lives run a bit more smoothly: tidying (no deep cleaning), laundry, organizing, etc. I have several more reviews under my Housekeeping, Errands, and Senior Care profiles. I ask for a minimum of $100/visit. I'm comfortable driving the family car, but if asked to drive my own car, I ask for mileage reimbursement at 66 cents per mile (2023 California rate). I'm allergic to cats, some dogs, and tobacco smoke.
Emily has been an incredible help to our family, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She is extremely reliable, punctual, hardworking, and always comes in with such a positive attitude. What impresses me most is her ability to anticipate what needs to be done without having to be given constant direction. She notices things, takes initiative, and genuinely understands how to make a home function more smoothly. She is incredibly efficient and organized, but she also brings a sense of calm into our home. Whether she is organizing a space, helping with laundry, tidying, preparing things for the week, or simply noticing something that would make our lives easier, she approaches everything with care and thoughtfulness. As a busy family with three children, having Emily’s help has made a tremendous difference in our everyday life. She has helped our home feel more manageable, organized, and peaceful, and that has had such a positive impact on our entire family. I always feel like a weight has been lifted after she has been here. Beyond being a very hard worker, Emily is trustworthy, kind, dependable, and genuinely pleasant to have in our home. She takes pride in her work, and it shows. Finding someone who is not only reliable but who can also anticipate a family’s needs and jump in wherever needed is incredibly rare. We feel very lucky to have found Emily and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an organizer or household support. She is truly exceptional at what she does and has become an invaluable help to our family.
