As an older sister to four siblings, I spent time with kids starting at an early age. Babysitting and full-time nannying have been my primary work as I've gone through late middle school, high school, and college, approximately 10 years. I moved to California in 2014 to attend grad school for Special Education and am currently a full-time 6/7/8th grade classroom teacher. I'm very grateful to do what I do! Hobbies: Being outside, playing volleyball (but will jump into any game), exercise, organizing, being with kids and families, developing my Spanish language skills. I am also very involved in the music arts. I thoroughly enjoyed taking voice lessons and singing in choir throughout college. I am more than happy to meet for a face-to-face interview, phone, or video chat to answer questions about my background or availability. I hope to hear from you soon.

Emma is absolutely amazing with children :) I have 2 kids, one 6 year old girl and a 2.5 year old boy. She babysat for us since before we had our son and at that time our daughter was diagnosed with autism. Emma, is patient, loving, creative and very hands on. She sings with the kids and engages them on their level. Not only did she take tremendous care of our kids, but while they were sleeping, she tidied up after them!!! (And even did our dishes...if time allowed). Both I and my husband recommend Emma without hesitation for young kids with or without special needs.
