Hi my name is Emily Seo and I am currently a student at The University of Texas at Austin. Even though I had not had much experience in child care I did work at a math tutoring center for 3 years and worked with kids from ages 3-12. I love kids and get along very well with them as well.

A little bit about me
With 6 years of experience in nannying, I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a friend, a mentor, and a playmate. Even though I have no kids of my own, I know the importance of building beautiful relationships with children. My approach is all about nurturing these bonds, as I believe they are the most important . Volunteering at the church nursery for 9 years as well as working in daycares and nannying, also adds to my experience, showing me the impact of molding the lives of our future generation!
I'm CPR certified and trained in first aid, ensuring that safety is always a top priority. But beyond that, I bring a sense of joy and adventure to every day. From imaginative play to creative crafts, I strive to make every moment memorable. Let's embark on this fun-filled journey together!

A little bit about me
Hello! I am a junior at Dripping Springs High school looking for a part time job aside from the job I have. I work as a crew member at chipotle but I am interested in baby sitting / pet sitting. I have a little brother who loves to help out with any side hustles, so if you need extra help, we have you covered. Some activities we could do if baby sitting kids are arts and crafts which i love to do in my free time. Otherwise, for pet sitting, I love animals and love going on walks!
