Experience: 3 yrs
Nurturing young minds and supporting families is my passion. For the past two and a half years, I've had the joy of caring for children aged newborn to five, specializing in the zero-to-two age group. I have some college experience and I am comfortable caring for up to three children. Further, I have basic training in Autism Behavioral Therapy. My approach is patient, creative, and friendly. I communicate with parents through daily reports, verbal updates, and I am happy to follow your preferred method. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules, and I enjoy engaging children with outdoor adventures, music, and educational activities. I am also happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, swimming supervision, and pet care. I am trained and certified in First Aid and CPR. Ultimately, I want to provide a safe, fun, and enriching environment where your children can thrive, and I look forward to connecting with you!
Emma is warm and friendly. She took great care of our baby! She also was able to work for us on short notice and really helped us out. We will definitely hire her again.
