A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Emily, and I’m a dependable, kind-hearted 19-year-old from southern Indiana. I’m currently studying Communications at Indiana University Southeast and hope to one day work in sports broadcasting. I have years of experience nannying, pet sitting, and housekeeping for families in my community. I’m organized, patient, and love working with kids and animals of all ages. As a former student-athlete, I bring a strong work ethic, time management skills, and a team-first mindset to everything I do. I grew up volunteering for events like the Special Olympics and reading to children in local schools, which helped shape my passion for helping others. I’m someone families can rely on to be respectful, responsible, and positive. Whether you need someone to care for your children, pets, or home, I’d love to help!
